Taste the Seasons in a Historic Meiji-Era Ryotei
"Ryotei Chojinso" was built in 1900 in Tsubaki Town, central Takasaki, as a businessman’s villa. It became a ryotei in 1955, named after the character "Chojin" from a calligraphy gifted by a visiting imperial family member during the Meiji era (1868–1912). The 1,000 m² garden is home to two free-roaming peacocks. The kaiseki course offers eight to eleven dishes using "Joshu beef" and local vegetables, updated every two months with occasional Western touches. All nine rooms are private and vary in size, making it ideal for celebrations, engagements, and family gatherings. Catering and lunch boxes are also available.

Kaiseki Cuisine That Showcases the Flavors of Each Season
The menu changes every other month and includes the "Kisetsu no Kaiseki Ryori (seasonal kaiseki cuisine)", which incorporates the taste of autumn-only matsutake mushrooms in earthenware pots and plenty of local seasonal ingredients. It is perfect for business dinners and celebratory occasions. The weekday-only lunch boxes, "Shokado Bento" and "Kaiseki Bento", are also available for takeout, making them perfect for entertaining at home.

Versatile Setting for Celebrations, Banquets, and More
In a space of 1,000 square meters Japanese garden, two peacocks are allowed to roam freely. All nine rooms are private. There is a room with a sunken kotatsu table overlooking the waterfall for small groups, a room with chairs for up to 20 people, and a large hall that can accommodate up to 150 people, so it seems like it can be used for a variety of occasions, such as dinner parties, celebrations, banquets, and memorial services.
