20 Ryokan in Japan

Despite being conveniently located just a 5-minute drive from Yufuin Station, it is away from the hustle and bustle around the station and enjoys a fantastic location with a 360-degree view of Mt. Yufu.

This small Japanese inn is located near Shimoda Station in the center of Izu Shimoda, known for its white sand beaches, the history of the Black Ships' arrival and the opening of Japan to the world, and the port town of hot springs. With Shimoda Fuji, the older sister of Mt. Fuji in local folklore, as its backdrop, it is within walking distance of the ropeway, the streetscape of namako walls, Shimoda Port, Perry Road, and more. The natural environment on the premises is so well-designed that you'll forget you're near Shimoda Station and the town, and once you pass through the gate, you'll be in another world, surrounded by the quiet appearance of the Japanese inn and the atmosphere of seasonal flowers. The building is Japanese architecture, a single-story building with a total of five rooms, and all rooms have a cypress indoor bath, an Izu stone open-air bath with Shimoda hot spring water flowing through it, and a miniature garden. Even while indoors, the wild flowers are a delight to the eye, making it perfect for spending a relaxing time away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Both breakfast and dinner meals are served in your room, so you can enjoy private time with your family and loved ones without any worries. Dinner is a multi-course meal made mainly with local ingredients, and for breakfast you can choose between Japanese or Western cuisine. The facilities and furnishings in the rooms are all overflowing with Japanese attention to detail, and even more so, the spirit of hospitality is evident everywhere.

In the summer of 2017, the couple moved from Gifu to Kagawa. This is a lodging where we welcome our guests with the unique values and perspectives of those who have moved here, and the "charms of this region" that we have learned while living here. Totototsu is written as "Totototsu". A lodging where you can enjoy food and have a leisurely experience. Or a guesthouse. Or a traditional Japanese guesthouse. A traditional one-story Japanese house called "Yatsuo" that remains in the central and western Sanuki areas of Kagawa Prefecture. The building was built in 1988, so it is not old enough to be called a traditional Japanese house. Totototsu is a private lodging that only accepts reservations for one group per day. We can provide the best hospitality to up to six people. In addition to the bedroom, we have prepared two rooms as personal spaces where you can relax. Please feel free to use the wooden-floored room for the dining area and the tatami room for the tea table. For dinner, you can choose between Western and Japanese cuisine made with seasonal local ingredients and vegetables from our own farm. For breakfast, they serve Western-style food made with vegetables from their own farm and homemade bread. In the summer of 2024, they will begin offering tour and experience options. They are currently developing guided tours using vehicle transportation support and folding bicycles, as well as indoor experiences.
