'A fusion of tradition inherited from ancient times and a modern sensibility.' With a history of approximately 3,000 years, Dogo Onsen is said to be one of Japan's three oldest hot springs. Funaya Ryokan (currently known as 'Funaya') opened in the Dogo area during the Kanei era of the Edo period (around 1627). For over 390 years since then, it has been cherished as a lodging for countless travelers. While valuing tradition and maintaining its prestige, it also actively incorporates new and good elements to provide hospitality to its guests. This is the spirit of Funaya.
