TOP3 Best Ryokans for Solo Travelers in Kurokawa Onsen
Kurokawa Onsen is one of the best places in Japan for solo travelers to visit. The onsen town is small, charming, and quaint. If you want to spend a restful vacation in a hot spring resort, Kurokawa Onsen is the best place for you.
Then I would recommend staying in the onsen town, although most of the rooms are cramped. You can take an onsen bath or wander around the onsen town whenever you like. On the contrary, ryokans located a bit far from the onsen town might make you feel a bit lonely unless you want to spend your time surrounded by great nature. Especially for city people.
Then the following ryokans are the places I stayed at on a previous solo visit to Kurokawa Onsen. They are not luxury ryokans, but they have cozy rooms for one person, very comfortable, and the hospitality of the staff was great. I would especially recommend Fujiya and inn NOSHIYU as you can use large communal onsen baths in the sister inn Oyado Noshiyu.
