Introduction of the Accommodation

The main building, constructed in 1920, welcomes guests with its rare four-story structure made entirely of Japanese cypress, preserving the warmth of its wooden texture to this day. Each Room in the "Main Building West Wing" is designed with a traditional Shoin-zukuri style, yet features unique and thoughtful designs that give each Room its own charm. The two-room Japanese-style spaces, separated by traditional sliding fusuma doors, evoke a sense of nostalgia for all guests. In contrast, the Rooms in the "Main Building East Wing" were renovated in 2010. While retaining elements such as pillars, ceilings, shoji screens, and transoms, the Rooms now exude a modern atmosphere. The spacious openness and warmth of the wood coexist, ensuring a comfortable stay.

Ikaho Hot Springs carries the fragrance of the Manyou era.
Ikaho Onsen is said to have originated in the year 585 during Emperor Youmei's reign. Enjoy the ever-flowing golden waters.

Please relax comfortably in the Rooms, each with its unique charm.

Enjoy the "Mountain Kaiseki" featuring local ingredients from Gunma.
