Our small hotel is located in Motegi, Tochigi Prefecture, along the Naka River, which flows across northern Kanto.

Here, you’ll find the flow of the river, the warmth of fire, the presence of trees, the sound of wind passing through, and scenery that shifts with each season. We wanted to create time to once again savor—carefully and fully—eating, warming up, and sharing conversation, while listening closely to what already exists in this land. Stay close to the riverside view, warm yourself in a wood-fired sauna, enjoy good food, and talk together in nature. Little by little, you return gently to your own senses. Rather than piling on luxury or convenience, you rediscover richness—in yourself and in others—through time spent alongside nature. With that vision in mind, Aumakua Hütte was born.

Additional Information
Remarks
There is also a wood-fired outdoor bath with a reclining area. Adding firewood yourself and checking the water temperature as it slowly warms is an experience unique to this retreat. The bath has a deep soaking section and a shallow area where you can lie back. Sink into the warm water while watching the wood fire, or recline and enjoy the sky and breeze. At night, steam and the warmth of the fire surround you; in the morning, the stillness of the mountains and river offers a different atmosphere. The bath is available 24 hours a day during your stay, following the instructions provided. Tend the fire and warm the water at your own pace—a distinctive outdoor bathing experience at Aumakua Hütte.
