Sumihei Bettei Tokitoki

I was able to relax completely. The private bath never overlapped with anyone else, so I could take my time. Since I stayed on the third floor, right next to the lounge—zero minutes on foot—I spent almost all my time there rather than in my Room except for meals. I enjoyed drinks and snacks, gazed outside at a leisurely pace, and spent the whole time writing essays as a hobby. This is an Accommodation I’d love to return to for a slow, healing stay whenever work wears me out.

Last year, I stayed at Sumpei in Taiza and felt very comfortable, so this time I came to Kinosaki. It had been a while since my last visit to Kinosaki Onsen, and while the townscape is still familiar, it has become a lively place that younger people can enjoy rather than a quiet, nostalgic old-town atmosphere. The Hotel is right next to Jizo-yu and was easy to find. Although the building has the charm of an old Japanese house, it has been stylishly renovated, and the artistic space felt very relaxing. Also, the warm hospitality from everyone from Myanmar was wonderful. The meals and lounge service were excellent. Thank you very much!
