Ryoan KAWAKI – A Tranquil Ryokan Retreat in Shinshu Omachi
Nestled in the serene hot spring area of Shinshu Omachi, Ryoan KAWAKI is a traditional ryokan built with thick wooden beams and white earthen walls, evoking the charm of an old Japanese farmhouse.
Our natural hot spring water is drawn from the famous Kotetsu source, and the property features a spacious 7,200㎡ garden with seasonal views of the Northern Alps.
Guests can enjoy hand-prepared, vegetable-centered meals made with locally grown, pesticide-free produce, highlighting the flavors of Shinshu.
At Ryoan KAWAKI, we carefully integrate three elements — Space, Hot Spring, and Cuisine — to offer a deeply moving and unforgettable stay.
Rather than unnecessary extravagance, we invite you to experience a quiet moment in harmony with Shinshu’s nature, savoring the very best of what the region has to offer.
This is what makes Ryoan KAWAKI a truly representative ryokan of Shinshu
