    Plan details

    Stay in a 200-year-old traditional Japanese house with tatami rooms on the Nakasendo Sakaemai-juku route in Maibara City, Shiga Prefecture. Room only. [Room only]

    Guesthouse Isamean is a small inn built in a fully renovated 200-year-old house in Maibara City, Shiga Prefecture, a post town on the old Nakasendo road. The nearest station is Samegai Station, which is one stop away from Maibara Station on the Shinkansen line on the Tokaido Line. It is about a 10-minute walk from the station along the old road. The atmosphere of the building is the same as that of an old post town, and the interior is comfortable and clean. All rooms are air-conditioned. We welcome people from Japan and abroad for various purposes, such as walking the old Nakasendo road, climbing Mt. Ibuki, and Biwaichi. Right in front of the inn is a stream that collects spring water and makes the dainty flowers of the baikamo (Japanese plum blossoms). You can enjoy the view of the stream flowing along the post town from your room. The rooms are pure Japanese style with a tokonoma alcove. These are the type of rooms where you sleep on a futon laid on top of the tatami mats. The charm of this accommodation is that you can experience the atmosphere of the old highway while still enjoying the comforts of modern times. This is a plan with no meals included in a room with a maximum capacity of 2 people. This is a simple and reasonable accommodation plan that allows you to experience the atmosphere of a post town from the past.
