Accommodation
At the Omaruyama Hotel, guests can unwind in the renowned Kitsuregawa Onsen, celebrated as one of Japan’ s top three hot-spring waters for beautiful skin. Located about 10 minutes by car from Seven Hundred Club, the hotel offers not only standard accommodation plans but also convenient stay-and-play packages
that combine lodging with golf.
The hotel takes great pride in its cuisine, especially dishes prepared with fresh, seasonal ingredients sourced locally. A wide selection of sake from breweries across the prefecture is available, along with the globally renowned Japanese whisky Nikka, allowing guests to indulge to
their heart’ s content. Rice is cooked right in front of you in a traditional pot, making the dining experience as visually enjoyable as it is delicious— one that will surely become a lasting memory. From December to May, it is possible to pick strawberries grown on the hotel’ s own farm, as well as other activities.
The sauna— complete with a self-löyly feature— is also highly popular, attracting sauna enthusiasts from both inside and outside the prefecture. Combined with warm hospitality and a peaceful atmosphere, guests can fully experience the soothing essence of Japanese relaxation.
