This facility was established by the world-renowned architect Tadao Ando, situated on a site facing Osaka Bay with a height difference of 100 meters and a slope of approximately 45 degrees. The space, designed to integrate with the surrounding landscape by incorporating natural scenery as part of the interior—like a painting spread across an entire wall—strongly reflects the characteristics of Ando's architecture. The rooms are available in three types: Western-style, Japanese-style, and maisonette. For meals, we offer dishes made with the unique ingredients of Awaji Island, known as a treasure trove of fresh produce. Originally built as a retreat facility for TOTO Corporation, all water-related facilities within the building, including private baths and large communal baths, use TOTO products to ensure a comfortable stay.
