Yobuko once flourished through whaling in the Edo period. Named after Jinroku Nakao, head of the whaling guild who supported that prosperity, NAKAO JIN6 HOTEL is a decentralized Hotel created to bring back the town’s vibrancy. From the main building by the harbor, enjoy sweeping views of the fishing town’s seascape and sunset, then unwind in the on-site JIN6 Sauna. In an annex renovated from a traditional townhouse on the street of one of Japan’s three major morning markets, you’ll find Yobuko’s heritage woven into the architecture—traditional stonework and distinctive thick pine beams passed down through generations. Experience Yobuko’s culture as a whole with a stay at this decentralized Hotel, enjoying your time as you explore the town.

Enjoy private moments as the quietly flowing Matsuura River stretches out before you. A new guests-only large public bath, “Niji-no-Yu,” has been added—an ideal space to refresh after work or travel. Forget time and savor your stay at a leisurely pace.
