When traveling, most people select an inn based on their travel destination. However, like the growing trend of 'slow travel,' which reduces crowding while extending one's time of travel, many are making the facilities themselves the purpose of their trip!
Today we introduce several great inns that offer more than a place to sleep, including a "sushi shop you can stay at," which serves Edomae sushi, courtesy of an experienced sushi chef, and an all-inclusive inn with activities, drinks, and evening meals available at no extra charge!
If you're planning a vacation this year, you may want to make these fabulous inns the main destination of your trip!
Toriizaki Club HOTEL & SEAFOODS: Opened in March 2022 - a fun 'Sushi Hotel'!
Toriizaki Club HOTEL & SEAFOODS is a hot spring facility recently opened in March 2022 and located in the Toriizaki Seaside Park Area in Kisarazu, Chiba Prefecture. What's interesting about this place is its concept: "a sushi restaurant you can stay at!"
While it is indeed an inn, you can also indulge in Edomae sushi, courtesy of a sushi chef with over 30 years of experience! All ingredients are freshly purchased from Kisarazu Fish Market on the same morning. They also serve local sake and wine that pairs well with the food.
Visitors can also dine at the seafood restaurant, SEAFOOD PARK 27, which serves fresh fried scallops, mackerel, and kelp, as well as at Hachiro-jaya, a shop known for its original hojicha and honey pudding.
And it's not just the food that stands out. Each of the six guest rooms is also superb! All suites overlook Tokyo Bay, with a view of Mt. Fuji across the sea on clear days.
All guest rooms include full-scale hot springs. The water is called 'chocolate water,' rich in sulfur components, which offer attractive skin-smoothing benefits in every soak.
Easily accessible, the hotel is located only five minutes by car from JR Kisarazu Station. This unique inn, designed in the image of a sushi shop accommodation, is the perfect place to stay for delicious Edomae sushi, relaxing hot springs, and unbelievable views!

Mikazuki Sea Park Hotel Katsuura: An ocean view in every room! Gorgeous spa and open kitchen included
Mikazuki Sea Park Hotel Katsuura opened in March 2022 in Katsuura City, Chiba Prefecture. The attraction of this place is its location. Situated right along the seaside, the blue sea stretches before you as far as the eye can see.
There is also a hot spring and spa facility, Aqua Palace, located in the annex, and available to guests at no extra charge.
Here, you can experience 19 types of indoor spas. In the 'Action Spa Zone,' relax stiff shoulders with the 'Neck Shower,' or indulge in a full-body bubble jet massage in the 'Dream Bath.'
The outdoor spa, 'Spa Sky Zone,' also offers sake baths in the 'Sake-no-ba' (Sake zone) and open-air baths in the 'Tenku Open-Air Hot Spring,' with stunning views that seem to stretch all the way out to the edge of the Earth!
We recommend not only the facilities, but the dinners, as well. Enjoy a buffet-style meal in the full-course open kitchen, where the chef cooks and serves each individual plate.
You can choose how you would like your food cooked, from a selection of steak, seafood, and tempura. There's also a rich lineup of sushi, sashimi, hot pot dishes, and desserts. The popular Katsuura Tantanmen is one of Katsuura's specialties!
All guest rooms overlook the Pacific Ocean, with Katsuura Port on the left, the white sandy beaches on the right, and an expansive, emerald blue sea stretching out before your eyes.
In addition, there are nightly illumination events, such as the 'Dance! Fountain Show (held in front of the entrance), and the 'Dancing Laser Show & Flowing Illumination' (Aqua Palace), plus several entertainment facilities, including table tennis and bowling. The inn also has excellent access, located only five minutes on foot from JR Katsuura Station.
