Iyaguchi Station × Recommended Hotel·Ryokan

At the Property within Kenyama National Park, you can enjoy the natural beauty of the four seasons at the wonders of Ooboke and Koboke. From the tranquil Japanese-style rooms with open-air baths, you can admire the magnificent nature from the fresh greenery of spring to the autumn foliage and winter scenery. From the large public bath facing the great outdoors, you can overlook the Koboke Gorge and the Yoshino River, known as Japan's most powerful rapids. Meals are carefully prepared using local ingredients, including seasonal vegetables and river fish.

A single accommodation, "Hotel Iya Onsen," is located on the cliffs of the Iya Valley. An open-air bath is situated at the bottom of the valley, approximately 170 meters down via cable car, where you can soak while enjoying the stunning views of the gorge. The beauty of the valley can also be admired from the guest rooms.

A secluded resort newly opened on a hilltop overlooking the breathtaking Iya Valley in Tokushima—one of Japan’s three great hidden regions. Leave the city behind, and the moment you step inside, an overwhelming panorama and a sky full of stars unfold before you, beginning a luxurious escape from everyday life. Enjoy the ultimate “totonoi” experience with our scenic tent sauna or a riverside sauna where you can plunge into crystal-clear waters. For dinner, we offer an exceptional BBQ featuring Tokushima’s three signature brand meats—including Awa Beef—along with seasonal local vegetables. At night, gather around the flickering flames of our large fire pit with a drink from TOMORI BAR in hand, and enjoy warm moments that bring people together. Choose from five distinctive cabins inspired by the theme of “light,” each offering a special seat for an extraordinary stay that sharpens all five senses.
