Space Showcasing Japanese Traditions and Artisan Craft
A townhouse-style lodging set in a former post town in Okitsu, Shimizu Ward, Shizuoka City, using a traditional machiya over 100 years old. The authentic Japanese residence features private spaces created in collaboration with artists and artisans, offering an experience that goes beyond a simple stay to engage with traditional craftsmanship and architectural character. Two accommodation units are available and can be connected for groups of six or more. The setting provides an opportunity to encounter the uncommercialized charm of a regional town and a stay that encourages a sense of release from everyday life.

Guest Room

Arrival Treats Featuring Confections from a Historic Shop

The "anco" guest room features welcome sweets of premium, freshly made wagashi (traditional Japanese sweets) created in collaboration with a long-established local confectioner, reflecting Okitsu’s identity as the birthplace of anko (sweet bean paste). The set includes carefully selected Shizuoka tea, prepared in a teapot to highlight its authentic flavor.

Restful Bedding Paired with a Curated Aroma Bar

The "momen" guest room features futon bedding crafted by skilled artisans using high-quality natural cotton. An aroma bar offers three fragrances derived from Shizuoka tea leaves, allowing selection based on the desired mood, such as restful sleep or a refreshing start to the day.

Private Rental Available for "momen" and "anco" Buildings

For groups of six to ten, both the "momen" and "anco" buildings can be reserved for exclusive use. A guest notebook is provided, allowing interaction among visitors. Various plans that include different experiences are also available.

"momen" Living Room Reflecting Traditional Design

A spacious layout with large openings overlooking the garden and a design facing the earthen passageway creates an open atmosphere, enhanced by aged wood and earthen walls. The space reflects traditional character while offering a distinct sense of departure from the everyday. Futon bedding and winter hanten coats are tailored at a shop specializing in "Enshu cotton tsumugi", a traditional craft from Hamamatsu City in Shizuoka.

Spa

Spacious Bath Retaining Classic Design Elements

The "momen" bathroom features a spacious, traditional-style bath with a generously sized tub for a relaxing soak after a day of travel. The classic design with blue tiles has been preserved, highlighting the charm of a traditional Japanese house.

Shower Room Equipped with Shampoo and Essentials

The "anco" shower room is equipped with shampoo, conditioner, and body soap. Nearby, the natural hot spring facility "Suruga Kenko Land," which includes a sauna, offers four types of saunas and a variety of baths.

Facility

Simple and Functional Kitchen with Ample Space

A spacious kitchen with a wood-grain finish features a simple and functional design. Equipped with tableware, cutlery, and an IH cooktop, the space supports light cooking with local ingredients or reheating brought-in meals, making it flexible.

Subtle Wood Accents Surrounding a Modern Toilet

Flush toilets designed for guest comfort offer a spacious, clean setting with a calm wood-grain interior. Each building is equipped with its own facility, allowing convenient use at night or early morning with added privacy.

Clean and Spacious Independent Vanity Area

A separate vanity area features a spacious, clean washbasin with a calm, refined atmosphere. A large mirror and bright lighting support smooth preparation in the morning, including grooming and makeup, contributing to a comfortable stay.

Convenient Location Near Station Convenience Store and Laundry

The property is close to JR Okitsu Station, with convenient access from JR Shizuoka Station, served by the Shinkansen, and JR Shimizu Station near Shimizu Port, making it a practical base for exploring Shizuoka City.
