20 Unique Hotels in Japan

Established in 1979, we operated as the long-standing pension 'Kaze no Oka Nobara' in Kyushu. However, due to the 2016 Kumamoto Earthquake, we were forced to suspend operations for a long time. After five and a half years, we are finally reopening. The newly constructed building has been reborn as a 'small hotel' with a total of five rooms, including one dedicated room for guests with pets. The name has also been changed to the new 'Minami Aso Nobara INN.' The interior, equipped with barrier-free access and an elevator, features a soft-toned, classic design, creating a soothing space that is welcoming to everyone. All guest rooms are twin rooms with excellent views and attached baths.While maintaining a simple and natural atmosphere, we have prepared the latest amenities like Simmons beds and floor heating to ensure a comfortable stay. Additionally, the parking area is located on the first floor of the building, providing covered parking for a comfortable experience even on rainy days. Our signature dish, 'spare ribs,' which has been popular since our founding, has also made a comeback, and we will welcome guests with even more heartfelt, family-style hospitality. We humbly ask for your patronage of the small hotel, 'Minami Aso Nobara INN.'
