Tripadvisor announced their Travelers Choice Awards for 2019, and we are proud to mention that 3 of the Top 25 inns in Japan are members of our association, the Japanese Inn Group.
The ryokans belonging to the Japanese Inn Group are all family-run traditional Japanese inns located throughout the country. The friendly owners are all happy to share the experience of staying in an authentic Japanese-style accommodation.
This year’s recipients are:
