Founded in 1888. A long-established Ryokan, renowned as the finest in the San’in region and beloved by many writers and artists.
Kaimikan, with a history of more than 130 years and visited by many writers and artists including Toson Shimazaki, held its grand opening in May 2007. Blending tradition with a fresh sensibility, every Room on the 4th floor features a private scenic-view bath. Our Japanese garden overlooking Lake Shinji is highly acclaimed each year by international magazines. While enjoying these breathtaking views, please savor our signature “Kaimi Family-Style Sea Bream Rice,” passed down only at our inn, at the new “Garden Tea House Mina-mi.” Kaimikan is also located in the heart of Matsue, making it easy to explore the historic castle town. For an exceptional stay in the San’in region, we warmly invite you to spend your time at Kaimikan.
Thank you for accommodating our last-minute visit again. We were truly relieved to find a Room available. We love the in-room Onsen and the dinner!The sea bream rice at breakfast was delicious—I finished it all. I was also happy to enjoy breakfast with the garden right in front of me. Thank you very much.We were also very satisfied with how well stocked the Room amenities were.With such attentive hospitality, this is an Accommodation we will definitely want to stay at whenever we come to Matsue.
jkココちゃん 9/25/2026I was delighted that the bath in my Room was an Onsen. The backrest angle in the tub was perfect, so I could relax comfortably. The washroom was also bright and spacious, with well-stocked amenities, a hair dryer (ReFa), and a tabletop mirror, making it very easy to spend time there. It was my first time to find fresh sweets prepared in the Room, and I was truly happy. There were also three types of tea—green tea and herbal teas—so it was fun to choose. The staff were wonderful, and the food was delicious. Enjoying a colorful sea bream ochazuke while looking out at the beautiful garden is a lovely memory for me. If I have another chance to visit Matsue, I would love to stay again—this time for a Multiple Night Stay—and relax at leisure. Thank you very much.
