    It was close to the zuishinmon gate and the path up to mt Haguro. The hosts were so kind and accommodating. Traditional Japanese style stay and traditional breakfast (which was phenomenal!)

    You can feel the passion both of the owners have for taking care of this really old Ryokan. Sure, the walls are thin, the interior is old, but everything is taken care of and clean. Never had I any thought of uncomfortability. We were welcomed to...

    Toki-san and staff were most attentive to our needs. When we encountered difficulties during our mountain trek/pilgrimage, Toki-san assisted in many ways. He is a true gem.

    This is hands down the best place I've stayed in my month of travelling Japan. The beautiful tatami room was spacious and comfortable, the owners are incredibly friendly and accommodating, and the pilgrim food they cooked for breakfast and dinner...

TAMONKNA is traditional Japanese style inn, Ryokan, 300 years old. TAMONKNA was a SYUKUBOU,shrine inn until 80 years ago. The building of TAMONKAN has not changed since then. TAMONKAN is a nearest inn to HAGUROSAN. You can walk to the five-story pagoda in 20 minutes. You can ride the bus to Mt.Gassan in summer season from nearest bus-stop "Haguro-Aramachi". We hope to see many guests from all over the world!
