Set deep within the winding streets of the beautiful, ancient city of Viseu, this Ryokan is a cosy little gem dedicated to Japanese hospitality. After a long drive in torrential rain we were welcomed by Tania with hot ginger and lemon tea as we checked in from the comfort of the sofa. Swapping wet shoes for slippers in true Japanese style, we we're given the full tour and then guided to room 5 (there is no room 4!). The room itself was bright, warm and cosy, with the tatami mats and yukata gowns providing that extra level of comfort for a minimal but intimate aesthetic. My wife and I sat crosslegged across the table and drank more tea. Later we had a couple of Japanese beers from the fridge before heading out. The next day, after rainy explorations in the city, we came "home" to the Viseu Ryokan and spent a solid 30 minutes de-stressing in the sauna. We ate gyoza and ramen in the communal kitchen for dinner, served with grace and panache by the whole team. More Japanese beer and a glass of Nikka rounded off a relaxing night. Saki is also available for those who don't like Japanese whisky! Breakfast had everything you could want, and with free tea and coffee all day—a welcome refreshment not always provided by other hotels. I only have good things to say about the Viseu Ryokan—the Japanese heart of Viseu that's truly one of the most comfortable places I've ever stayed.
