Founded in 1928 in the spa town of Yamashiro, Beniya Mukayu is located on the road from the revered Kyoto to the world heritage sites Shirakawago-Gokayama, close to Kanazawa. The hotel’s architecture elegantly emphasizes contrasts between light, shade and neutral colours. Every room has its own private open-air hot spring bath, with a wonderful view of the authentic Japanese garden. The traditional tea ceremony performed by the owner, the finest Kaga style Kaiseki cuisine served on locally crafted crockery, as well as invigorating medicinal spa treatments, combine to make Beniya Mukayu a peaceful heaven.

Join Mr. Nakamichi for a tea ceremony; trek the Ozuchi mountain; wear a kimono; try your hands at the traditional techniques of Japanese Washi paper, soba, kutani porcelain and lacquerware... so much to explore!

Unusual suites – stand out style

Byakuroku Terrace Suite features a secluded private open-air hot spring bath and a large wooden terrace stretching in hand-reaching distance into the forest garden. This 100 square metres suite is the perfect place to escape from everyday life while cleansing and rejuvenating your body and mind. The study inserted in between the open air hot spring bath and terrace is an ideal space for creative imagination or meditative thoughts that arise from a refreshed mind.

Spectacular Nature

Japanese culture and hospitality are rooted in the beauty of the four seasons and the appreciation of their changing. Traditionally, Japanese have 24 very short seasons (24 sekki), some lasting only a few days. Empty your mind, tune in with nature, open your senses and your heart: in the little details you will appreciate the great, ephemeral spectacle that nature is performing around you.
