A luxury decentralized heritage hotel located just 90 minutes from Tokyo. It features beautifully restored century-old townhouses and storehouses blended with modern, minimalist interiors. Rooms feature private, fragrant hinoki (cypress) wood soaking tubs and an intentional "no-TV" policy for ultimate relaxation. The hotel sits right on historic Bamba Street, just a 3-minute walk from the ancient Chichibu Shrine.
The hotel sits right off the historic stone-paved Bamba Street and is just a 3-minute walk from Chichibu Shrine—a 2,000-year-old spiritual site whose current main hall was built by the famous shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu.
Design: Rooms preserve original architectural details like high vaulted timber ceilings, structural pillars, and historical walls, but are paired with minimalist modern luxury interiors.
Baths: Every single guest room features a private soaking tub crafted from fragrant hinoki (Japanese cypress).
The "No TV" Policy: Keeping with the brand's goal of deep relaxation and cultural immersion, there are intentionally no televisions in the units.
Dining: The on-site restaurant specializes in high-end fusion cuisine (often blending French technique with Japanese ingredients) using hyper-local Chichibu produce, wild game, river-sourced sweetfish, and local sake.
This hotel is close to Chichibu Station, Chichibu Shrine and the Chichibu Festival Museum!
