Nishimuraya Honkan

Nishimuraya Honkan is part of Virtuoso’s exclusive Regional Program for Asia. The gardens of Nishimuraya Honkan allow guests to experience the kaleidoscope of variation that Japans four seasons bring. Guest rooms were designed with as much thought given to the outside as the inside. Whether it is the elegant cherry blossoms of spring, the gentle breezes off the Sea of Japan in the summer, the colorful leaves of autmun, or the delicate snows of winter, you are sure to discover a wealth of natural beauty in Kinosaki Onsen.

Every tatami mat, shoji screen, and lavish kaiseki dinner reveals a peek inside Nishimuraya Honkan’s 160-year history. The ryokan (Japanese-style inn) traditional architecture transports you into another era – one with lush gardens, indoor and outdoor hot springs, and artfully-crafted multi-course meals featuring Matsuba crab (winter only), Tajima beef, and Konotori rice served in the privacy of your room. Don’t miss the two-level museum showcasing an expansive collection of local photos, paintings, and relics.
