NIPPONIA Sado Aikawa Gold Mining Town

A traditional Japanese hotel where you can enjoy the town of gold mines

Sado Island has been developed since around 1600, sharing the rise and fall of the gold mines. After the gold mines were discovered, it developed as a land directly governed by the Edo Shogunate.

The town of Aikawa where we live was a mining town where people from various regions mixed together due to the development of the gold mines, and at its peak it was home to as many as 100,000 people. As a result, various historical cultures were brought in from all over the country, forming a unique culture that continues to this day. We have not only the facilities and remains of the Sado Gold Mine, but also the streetscape of Kyomachi Street, which was the center of the Edo period, traditional performing arts represented by Sado Okesa, and the charm of the people of Aikawa... We have created a hotel that takes advantage of this culture and welcomes visitors to the area so that many people can experience the splendor of Aikawa.

We offer a nostalgic and new Japanese lifestyle where you can learn about, experience, and feel Sado Aikawa.
