NIPPONIA Sado Aikawa Gold Mining Town

A traditional Japanese house hotel to enjoy the town of Kanayama

Sado Island is a region that developed alongside the rise and fall of Kanayama starting around the year 1600.Kanayama was discovered and developed as a territory directly governed by the Edo Shogunate.
The town we live in, called Aikawa, saw a mix of diverse people from various regions for Kanayama's development, and during its peak, it was a mining town with a population of as many as 100,000 people.As a result, various historical and cultural elements from all over Japan were brought in, forming a distinct culture that continues to this day.From the facilities and remains of Sado Kanayama, the townscape of Kyomachidori, which was the center during the Edo period, the traditional performing arts represented by Sado Okesa, to the charm of the people of Aikawa—we have created a hotel led by the local community that utilizes this culture to ensure visitors can experience the greatness of Aikawa.

We offer a nostalgic yet fresh Japanese lifestyle where one can learn, experience, and feel Sado Aikawa.
