Established during the Edo Kanei era, this long-standing inn continues to weave history in Dogo, offering timeless relaxation.
Dogo Onsen, Japan's oldest Onsen with a history of approximately 3,000 years, has been celebrated as one of the nation's most renowned hot springs, even mentioned in poems such as "Shiratama no Ishiyu" and "Iyo no Yuketa." Funaya Ryokan (now known as "Funaya") opened here during the Kan'ei era of the Edo period. For over 390 years, it has been cherished as a beloved Property for countless travelers. Dogo Onsen, which appears in ancient texts like the "Nihon Shoki" and "Manyoshu," was made decisively famous by Natsume Soseki's novel "Botchan." The haiku, "Hajimete no Funaya tomari wo shigure keri," was composed in the autumn of 1893 when Soseki stayed at Funaya during his first year as a teacher in Matsuyama. Funaya Ryokan has also been a favorite Property of literary figures connected to Matsuyama, such as Masaoka Shiki and Takahama Kyoshi. At "Dogo Onsen Funaya," you can enjoy a vast garden of approximately 1,500 tsubo (about 4,950 square meters) with a flowing mountain stream. The Property has been meticulously crafted to harmonize the charm of tradition with a fresh, modern spirit. Please savor a memorable moment of your journey with us.
We stayed here to celebrate my mother’s birthday.As I was traveling with my elderly mother, I hesitated until the very last minute about whether it was wise to go far. But because she loves Onsen so much, I decided to make the trip in hopes of making her happy.Even though it was a last-minute Reservation, when I told you it was for my mother’s birthday, you responded quickly and courteously. Your warm message—“All of our staff will do our very best to make it a memorable day”—truly meant a lot to me.We were also looking forward to enjoying the baths at Dogo Onsen and the meals, and above all, seeing how happy my mother would be on the day.After we arrived at the Accommodation, everything exceeded our expectations: delicious food, soothing baths, and most of all the wonderful hospitality from your staff. The birthday surprise for my mother was a huge success!!! She was so happy she even cried.The property was spotless and beautifully maintained. The expansive garden filled with lush greenery was especially breathtaking!Thank you so much for giving our family such an unforgettable and special time.We will definitely return.
M/Y 8/28/2026We stayed for one night in July.A senior colleague who lives in Ehime Prefecture recommended Funaya, saying that if we were going to stay anywhere, it should be Funaya—so we decided to stay together. We were both truly impressed. The meals were excellent, both dinner and breakfast. The fish was incredibly fresh—we were amazed.The Room was also impeccable in every way, with nothing to complain about.We would definitely like to stay again.
