- Satoyama Villa Honjin
A former honjin that once welcomed travelers. Experience a moment wrapped in the warmth of wood and the charm of history, inheriting memories of the Edo period.
It's like opening a giant time capsule. That was the impression when we first entered to begin the restoration of this accommodation. This building once served as a "Honjin," a resting place for the Matsumoto feudal lord traveling to Edo during the Sankin-kotai system. Over 100 years, it has accumulated remnants from various eras, packed tightly within its walls. As we carefully uncovered these layers with the help of local residents, the essence and potential of this accommodation began to reveal themselves. The cultural figures who passed through here, and those who warmly welcomed them with heartfelt hospitality. An old hearth unexpectedly discovered when removing floorboards—when its fire is lit again after all these years, this Honjin will come alive once more. Perhaps this space has been waiting for someone all along. The aesthetic sensibility housed within this building inspires our creativity. Dialogue & Inspiration A place to gather around the fire and share stories together.
We stayed as a family of three. We were extremely satisfied with every aspect of our stay—the atmosphere of the Facility and the attentive service from the staff.The French course featuring duck, which we had requested in advance, was carefully prepared dish by dish. Not only was it delicious, but the presentation and ingredient pairings were outstanding—truly showcasing the chef’s talent.Recently, we often choose “Sakagura,” and in any case it is wonderfully quiet. The entire building has a calm presence, allowing us to relax and enjoy unhurried time away from everyday life.As always, all staff members were kind and courteous. Their thoughtful attention to detail could be felt throughout our stay, and we were comfortable from start to finish.Once again, we felt this is a truly wonderful Accommodation where the cuisine, Facility, and service are all in perfect harmony. Thank you very much.
やいの 8/15/2026It had been a while since we last enjoyed Honjin’s French cuisine. Each dish, carefully prepared using local ingredients, was delicious from start to finish. Not a single course was the same as last time—everything was outstanding. Even in Tokyo, it’s rare to find French cuisine of this quality. And with no dress code, it didn’t feel intimidating at all; we were able to relax and truly enjoy the meal. That’s one of the great things about Honjin. The sake I had for the first time in a while was also excellent. Another great point is that if you visit a few times, you may occasionally receive pleasant surprise services. We’re already looking forward to the next French dinner.
