The new hotel will be a small luxury hotel comprising guestrooms of at least 40 square meters, and we aim to create a retreat where people, nature and food come together, combining the refined quality of a hotel with the warm hospitality of a traditional Japanese inn, alongside spa facilities offering the restorative benefits of hot springs. The opening is scheduled for around the end of February 2028, bringing the number of hotels scheduled to newly open by 2028 to 5.
