20 Ryokan in Japan

Newly built and opened in 2008, this beautiful facility is not wheelchair accessible, but it is clean and bright with no steps. There are only three guest rooms, all 33㎡ Japanese-style rooms with 10 tatami mats (unit bath with a view, shower toilet, large sink, free Wi-Fi, refrigerator/freezer, TV), private hot spring (open-air bath and indoor bath), and the sound of the waves and the ocean visible through the pine trees.

This is an inn that is familiar to many from old times as a main hub for pilgrims who are on a pilgrimage. Facing the Yokose River, a tributary of the Arakawa River, this inn is popular as a hotel. The hot spring is said to be effective against conditons such as shoulder stiffness and rheumatism.
