Where Staying

Feels Like Belonging

Where Staying Feels Like Belonging

The unique atmosphere of an old townhouse, the morning voices of students going to school,

the moonlight illuminating the alleys,
the sound of temple bells heard from afar.
The time spent feeling the sights and sounds that the people of Kurashiki
have seen and heard in the same way,
is here.
Please overlay your own unique time onto the Kurashiki space-time,
as if you are in an extension of your daily life, not on a trip.

Kurashiki —

Closer than you think

Kurashiki — Closer than you think

Kurashiki, a tourist destination where living spaces are mosaicked and mixed,
is not dressed up for visitors.
While preserving the townscape of 400 years ago,

it is a continuously evolving present with daily life always nearby.
Such a town, where new and old harmonize,

is the natural town of Kurashiki.
Located on the way to the golden route of Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, and Hiroshima,

it is the perfect place to take a break and rest your wings.
