Monjuso Shourotei is a charming single-story wooden accommodation nestled on a small cape, surrounded by aged trees behind the Wisdom Monju-do Hall. Beyond the lush garden lies the serene waters of Aso Sea and the picturesque pine forest of Amanohashidate, one of Japan's three most scenic views. Experience the ever-changing beauty of Japan's nature through different times of day and seasons in this tranquil retreat far removed from worldly noise.Beloved by many literary figures, this accommodation was named "Shourotei" by writer Giichi Fujimoto, who reflected on "the dew that forms on the tips of Amanohashidate’s pine leaves and how it deepens human connections at this travel lodge." The late author Hitoshi Yamaguchi also praised Shourotei in his book "Favorite Places," describing it as "completely flat and peaceful. That flatness seems to stretch endlessly. When 'flatness' comes to mind, I feel calm and relaxed... Every Japanese person should experience that perfectly flat scenery at least once."

About a 2.5-hour drive from central Osaka and Kyoto, Lake Hanareko—the largest freshwater lake in Kyoto Prefecture—lies in the Tango area, where beautiful yet unspoiled scenery remains, close to Ine’s Funaya boat houses and Amanohashidate. “HOTEL & Kotei Soka” is a small Hotel on its shore that celebrated its grand opening in May 2024. Ripples left by waterfowl on the lake, the splash of wildlife diving in, crisp air at dawn, a terrace dappled with willow-filtered light, the colors of the evening sky, abundant local ingredients nurtured by Tango’s climate, carefully selected natural wines, an Onsen to soothe your body—and a welcoming space surrounded by interiors and art curated from what we love. A calm heart and an ideal everyday life await you here.
