What is "NIPPONIA HOTEL Ozu Castle Town"?
NIPPONIA HOTEL Ozu Jokamachi is the largest decentralized hotel in Japan, consisting of 26 buildings and 31 rooms spread across Ozu.
All rooms are renovated from historic buildings.
Some of the rooms are renovated from the home of a feudal lord's descendants, and some are from buildings built about 300 years ago, allowing you to fully enjoy the charm of Japan.
In this article, we will introduce each of these charming rooms!
Renovated house of a lord's descendant! Luxury suite room
This building was built in 1925 by a descendant of a feudal lord in Ozu as a villa in Ozu.
It still retains its original appearance well today, and was registered as a national tangible cultural property in 2007 as a residence that gives an insight into the lifestyle of a feudal lord.
It has a very open design and exudes the dignity of a former feudal lord's residence, as well as modern Western style elements throughout.
This space is considered a pre-war luxury home!
2. Full of attention to detail and playfulness! Premier rooms where you can enjoy culture and history with all five senses
This building was built in the mid-Edo period. It was owned by Murakami Chojiro, who made his fortune in the production of wood wax in this area, and was used as a storage facility for the nuts of the Japanese wax tree, the raw material for wood wax.
Despite being a storehouse, it has high ceilings and skylights, giving it an open feeling.
The chic color scheme of the interior accentuates the wooden architecture. The bathroom on the first floor is intentionally placed in the center of the room in order to preserve the earthen walls of the storehouse.
The glass-walled bathroom allows you to enjoy your bath time while admiring the building's structure.
3. Spacious and comfortable deluxe room
One of the deluxe rooms is located in a renovated mansion of Mr. Imaoka, who founded the Imaoka Silk Mill, which opened in 1893.
The raw silk produced at Imaoka Paper Mill was of the highest quality in Japan.
The guest rooms are decorated with lights in the shape of cocoons and hanging scrolls decorated with raw silk from Ozu, which are meant to convey the story of the hotel's former existence as a silk mill. Be sure to take a look.
Some of the deluxe rooms are located in a renovated historic mansion at the foot of Ozu Castle.
Of the 31 rooms, only three offer a close-up view of Ozu Castle.
At night, it is lit up, allowing you to spend a luxurious time enjoying the fantastic scenery!
4. Dog-friendly rooms where you can stay with your pet
The dog-friendly room is a place where you can relax while being soothed by the greenery of the mountains and the pleasant breeze.
Attention to detail has been paid to the color scheme that evokes the sophistication of the samurai and the crafts that have been passed down in the Ozu area.
There is also a deck terrace and garden so you can relax with your pet dog.
Strolling around the town with your beloved dog and relaxing in your room are sure to become irreplaceable memories for your family.
5. A club lounge exclusively for guests, renovated from a storehouse
NIPPONIA HOTEL Ozu Jokamachi also has a free lounge exclusively for guests, which was converted from a storehouse.
All-you-can-drink champagne, wine, beer, whiskey, soft drinks, tea and coffee.
It is open from 8:00 to 22:00, and we recommend spending time in the courtyard when the weather is nice.
