In the tatami rooms, you can experience the Japanese style of living close to the floor—for example, lying down to relax, enjoying tea at a low table, or reading quietly by the window.

Tatami has a distinctive natural igusa fragrance.
In Japan, this scent is often appreciated as natural and pleasant, but individual perceptions vary.
If you are sensitive to smells or may be concerned about the scent of natural materials, please keep this in mind before booking.
