  • Shiraishiya
  • The Best Ryokans in Tamatsukuri Onsen for Winter Delicacies & Breakfast Buffets

I'm heading to Tamatsukuri Onsen in Shimane this January, and the dining experience is my top priority. For dinner, I'm dreaming of indulging in local specialties like premium Wagyu and fresh crab. For breakfast, I'm hoping to find a place with a great, hearty buffet. Any suggestions for a ryokan that's known for its incredible food?

Shiraishiya

44-2 Tamayu-cho, Tamatsukuri, Matsue-shi

  • A sumptuous dinner and a varied breakfast Buffet

  • This luxurious ryokan is located in Tamatsukuri Onsen, on the southern shore of Lake Shinji. As a special touch, female guests are invited to choose a beautiful floral yukata upon arrival. The bathing experience is exquisite, featuring a chic indoor bath of black granite, a spacious open-air bath, and a grand bath made entirely of fragrant hinoki cypress. Dinner was a gourmet kaiseki course, a parade of premium local ingredients such as Shimane Wagyu beef, Oki Matsuba crab, and the prized Nodoguro fish. The indulgence continues at breakfast: a lavish buffet with a wide variety of dishes, including the inn's signature pancakes with a special brown sugar syrup.

  • The exterior and interior of the building have a calming, traditional Japanese atmosphere.

  • If you're in Tamatsukuri Onsen, how about staying at "Shiraishi-ya"? It's a long-established Ryokan (Japanese inn) that has been in business for about 300 years. The exterior and interior of the inn have a calming, purely Japanese atmosphere. The hot spring is a natural hot spring with moisturizing effects, and you can relax in the all-cypress bath and the black granite bath. Breakfast is made with local ingredients. The special pancakes and freshly made scrambled eggs were delicious.

Hotel Gyokusen

Tamayucho Tamatsukuri 53-2

  • The largest public bath in the Tamazukuri Onsen area

  • This ryokan is a paradise for onsen lovers, boasting one of the largest public bath complexes in Tamatsukuri Onsen. I could completely stretch out and unwind in the two distinct sets of baths: a spacious, rock-hewn indoor and outdoor bath, and a fragrant hinoki cypress indoor and outdoor bath. It was also a treat to have a choice between high and low-temperature dry saunas. The pampering continued at dinner with a feast of local delicacies like Nodoguro fish, Tottori Wagyu beef, and the famously plump shijimi clams from Lake Shinji. The breakfast buffet was also a highlight, featuring many local specialties.

  • Local dinner and varied breakfast

  • For dinner, we enjoyed kaiseki(a traditional Japanese multiple course meal )with seafood such as blackthroat seaperch and crab as the main course. Breakfast was Buffet. It was a very varied Buffet with over 70 types of Western and Japanese food. When you enter the hotel, the high ceiling is magnificent.

  • A wide variety of Japanese and Western Buffet available

  • There are two types of large public baths here, one made of rocks and one made of cypress. Men and women alternate, so you can enjoy both. Both baths are spacious, and there is an open-air bath, so you can spend a relaxing and blissful time enjoying the breeze. I chose the most reasonable 10-tatami Japanese-style room, but I was able to enjoy a nice view of nature from the room and stay comfortably. There was also an event in the lounge, and I watched a free local folk song show. It was very interesting and a show that you can only see here. The breakfast menu has more than 70 types of Japanese and Western dishes. There is a wide selection of dishes using local ingredients such as local vegetables, so you will have a hard time deciding which one to choose. You can enjoy a luxurious feeling from the morning.

Hoseikan Hotel

1191-1 Tamatsukuri, Tamayu-cho, Matsue-city

  • Featuring seasonal highlights like local Wagyu beef and crab.

  • If you are visiting Tamatsukuri Onsen in Shimane, might I suggest Hoseikan? As one of the most distinguished and long-established ryokans in the onsen town, it boasts a legacy of over 300 years. This heritage is reflected in its excellent hot springs and legendary hospitality (omotenashi). The dining experience is equally superb, featuring a dinner of seasonal delicacies like Shimane Wagyu beef and snow crab. In the morning, you can enjoy a generous Japanese and Western-style buffet with over 20 dishes that incorporate local ingredients.

International Hotel Tamatsukuri

148-2 Yumachi, Tamayu-cho, Matsue-shi

  • A hotel with a great view of Lake Shinji

  • independent guest cottages a little ways from the center of Tamatsukuri Onsen, this hotel has a beautiful view of Lake Shinji.

Although the hotel has a retro Showa-era atmosphere, it is recommended for its cleanliness and beautiful views.
