    Accommodation only [Room only]

    Recommended for those who want to relax in the countryside! A plan with no meals included that allows you to stay at a 130-year-old traditional inn ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ This inn is located on the border between Nara and Wakayama prefectures and was originally a lodging for ascetics. The building has been used since it was founded in the Meiji and Taisho eras. Not a single piece of Taisho-era glass remains unbroken, and the shoin-style rooms with a sense of history are popular with those interested in architecture. Please relax and enjoy the view from the room and the relaxing wooden building. ◆Bath◆ ★Can be used as a family bath with one bath for one group! The bath is made of rare cypress wood. Small children can also use it safely. The water used is from the Omine mountain range, and although it is not a hot spring, it is popular for its high oxygen content and smooth skin. You can soak up to your shoulders and relieve your fatigue. Please take your time and relax. (Bath time 16:00-22:00) ◆Rooms◆ These are wooden shoin-style rooms built in the early Taisho period. The rooms are built to match the slope of the land, and you can see the garden. All the glass doors surrounding the garden are made of Taisho glass, and you can enjoy the greenery through the indescribably beautiful wavy glass that modern glass does not have. ※The entire building can also be rented (6-20 people). We are happy to discuss trips for three generations or groups, so please contact us.

    Breakfast included [Japanese breakfast]

    Recommended for those who want to relax in the countryside! A plan without dinner that allows you to stay casually at a long-established ryokan that has been in operation for 130 years ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ This inn is located on the border between Nara and Wakayama prefectures and was originally a lodging for ascetics. The building that was built in the Meiji and Taisho eras when it was first built is still in use today. Not a single piece of Taisho glass remains unbroken, and the shoin-style rooms with a sense of history are popular with those interested in architecture. Relax while looking at the calming wooden building and the view from your room. ◆Breakfast◆ We offer a Japanese breakfast that is typical of a ryokan, including grilled fish, tamagoyaki (rolled egg), small dishes, rice, and miso soup.

You can soak up to your shoulders and relieve your fatigue. Please relax and unwind. (Bath time: 16:00-22:00) ◆Rooms◆ These are wooden shoin-style rooms built in the early Taisho period. The rooms are built to match the slope of the land, and you can see the garden from the rooms.
