Shibu Onsen KOKUYA
Kuon Special Room

Take a step back in time and experience the history and culture of Japan first-hand at Shibu Onsen KOKUYA. Entering this traditional inn, visitors are met with the warm hospitality KOKUYA has provided for over 400 years. Established in the Edo Period, this architectural wonder is a sightseeing spot all its own with an enchanting atmosphere that charms any who visits.

​

Now, KOKUYA is proud to take this one step further with KUON, a one-of-a-kind accommodation over four centuries in the making. This room is named after the Japanese word for eternity and it’s easy to see why it was bestowed such an elegant title. KUON combines ideas of the past and present that convey the authenticity of real Japan with all of the modern, practically futuristic, amenities and luxuries needed to truly rest and recover. 

Start your stay with tranquility passing through the Japanese garden to your private entrance. Inside, visitors will find a stylish and spacious main room, dining room, bedroom and two bathrooms. This room also comes with not one, but two in-suite private hot springs; one open-air and one indoor. Soak in the healing waters that have made it a cherished hot spring destination for over 1,000 years or sweat away fatigue in the Finnish sauna.
