Golden Gate Fields

Our stay at Okaeri Hotel was truly one of the most memorable travel experiences my wife and I have ever had. The co-owner personally welcomed us and gave us a tour of the property while sharing its fascinating history. That personal touch immediately made us feel at home and added so much character to our stay. The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful. The garden is peaceful and meticulously maintained, and the indoor lounge is unlike anything we’ve seen before—it features a stunning swimming pool that has been transformed into a large koi pond, with each koi fish even having its own name! The hotel also has a fun karaoke lounge, beautifully renovated rooms, and a relaxing Japanese-style soaking tub. The entire property reminded us of the elegant Japanese home featured in the Drops of God Apple TV+ series, complete with an impressive wine cellar that adds to the hotel’s unique charm. To top it all off, breakfast the next morning was exceptional—a delicious three-course meal thoughtfully prepared by the chef. Every dish was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. This was, without question, the best hotel experience my wife and I have ever had. We can’t wait to return and bring our friends and family so they can experience it for themselves. Okaeri Hotel deserves a perfect 10/10. Highly recommended!
