Located in a quiet residential area of Oita City, the Ryokan Eisho is a renovated old folk house known for its nostalgic appearance and the warm hospitality of the landlady.
What catches the eye is the traditional structure with white walls and black lattice doors. The light red roof tightens the overall look, and the texture of the years adds a sense of leisure. In the inner garden, there is a small pond surrounded by greenery. Stepping in, you will feel as if time has slowed down.
The charm of the inn lies above all in the character of the landlady. Rooted in the good old Japanese culture, the heartfelt care and the watchful eyes that look after the visitors can be felt. Many guests have praised it as staying at "grandma's house." The inn is also highly appreciated for its flexible response even for long-term work stays. For workers whose accommodation plans are subject to change due to the weather, it can be said to be a reliable partner.
The facilities are simple in the old folk house style, but the cleanliness of the rooms is a given. It is a spacious and comfortable space. The meals are homemade dishes typical of a small family-run inn. If you book dinner, you may be able to enjoy the landlady's home-cooked meals.
Access by local bus or on foot is also good. Although it is not in the city center, it is a recommended inn for those who want to enjoy the quiet atmosphere. Perhaps, as you happen to stop by here, the memories of a journey touching the heart of Japan may be waiting for you.
