Himeji Castle’s back parlor-like 400-year-old inn ”Tetsu-juro”(former Oguni’s residence)

Hyogo Prefecture/Kanzaki District

■BEST OF RENOVATION STAY – Restoration Category: 4th Place Winner■ A private whole-house Accommodation rich in history

Enjoy exclusive use of an entire 400-year-old former village headman’s residence, said to be eight years older than Himeji Castle. This nationally registered cultural property has been carefully restored, preserving its historic character. From the main house, you can look out over a Japanese garden that changes with the seasons. In the gourd-shaped hinoki (cypress) bath, relax and soak while taking in the garden view. The scenery shifts from morning to afternoon to night—an experience found only here. Inside, thick beams and pillars, traditional fittings, and other details preserve everyday culture dating back to the Edo period. This was also the birthplace of Tetsujuro Oguni, who helped save farmers during the Bantan Uprising, and it carries a history of watching over many lives as a local maternity home. Ideal for those who want to unwind with family or friends in a quiet setting, and for anyone seeking a special stay in a historic home.
