ATAMI Kaihoro
Atami Kaihourou
Shizuoka /Atami/ ryokan
A glass castle that merges with the sea. An inn with just four rooms designed by Kengo Kuma
A luxury hotel with a panoramic view of Sagami Bay and Atami fireworks. Designed by the world-famous architect Kengo Kuma, the museum is decorated with beautiful artworks throughout the building under the theme of "water and glass." There are only 4 guest rooms that emphasize privacy. Spend an extraordinary time in a glass castle in front of the ocean, which changes its expression over time.

spend time in a glass castle
Two days to be healed by the sea and art
We will introduce the course when a woman who went to Atami with her husband actually stayed in the room "Seiha" of "ATAMI Kaifuro".
First day
Start11:00
Feeling the sea breeze
Leisurely drive
Drive to Atami while looking at the sea. There are plenty of spots along the coast where you can casually stop by, such as cafes with superb views overlooking the ocean and restaurants that serve fresh fish. First, have lunch at your favorite restaurant.
Check-in15:00
Arrive at the inn
stairs to glass floor
my heart is already rising
Go through the glass passage to the lobby. Sit on a comfortable sofa and take a break with a welcome drink. The crystal space in the hall will already make your chest rise.
After checking in, when I climbed the glass stairs to my room, I couldn't stop thinking, "This is the place I've seen before!"

"Water/Glass", which Kengo Kuma worked on in the 1990s, is said to be one of his representative works, and has not faded even in the present age.
Room16:00
the moment when the heart rejoices
Feeling one with the sea
4 rooms with different tastes. The most popular room, "Seiha," is fully glassed, giving you a feeling of openness where you can almost touch the horizon. This room has an open-air jacuzzi and a bath with a view.
I stayed at Seiba. When you enter the room, Sagami Bay spreads all over, and it is worth coming just for this! I drank orange tea that was in the refrigerator and relaxed ◎
Recommendations from facility staff
Butler Takashima
The luxury suites "Seiwa" and "Fushina", the Western-style room "Shozan", and the Japanese-style room "Sowa". You can enjoy a different view and atmosphere from each room.
Onsen17:00
in a private onsen
Unwind
In the large public bath on the 1st floor, you can enjoy Atami onsen to warm your body and mind. It has a sauna and cold water bath, and can be rented out for 50 minutes per group. Available twice a day, morning and night.
onsen in the large public bath is spacious and has a great sense of openness! There were free drinks in the refrigerator in the dressing room ◎ I was happy that there was a small beer and a bottle of coffee milk.
Dinner19:00
a dreamy moment
meal to enjoy with all five senses
For dinner, you can enjoy seasonal Japanese cuisine that uses plenty of local ingredients. Luxury suite guests are limited to one group per day, and you can have meal on the "water balcony" with a great view.
There were many dishes that I could enjoy from the appetizer, and the fish was especially delicious. I was grateful that the leftover cooked rice was used as a rice ball for a late-night meal.
Recommendations from facility staff
Butler Takashima
Japanese cuisine for dinner is served on a monthly menu, and we also have drinks such as wine and sake that go well with the dishes.
Freetime21:00
private time
the night slowly fades away
Adult night time that you want to spend in luxury. At the bar “Yamashina Chaya” where you can enjoy a superb view of the sea, you can enjoy carefully selected malts, western and Japanese sake. If the season overlaps, you can also see fireworks from here.
the 2nd day
Morning06:30
A heart-wrenching spectacle
Morning “Magic Hour”
In the morning, be wrapped in a fantastic sunrise that can be seen from the "Water Balcony". This balcony can be used freely by all guests except for meal times for the luxury suite guests.
The water balcony was illuminated by the orange color of the morning glow and was very beautiful. I was so happy when I was watching the sky getting brighter and brighter ^^
Freetime07:00
spend as you please
slow morning time
After watching the sunrise, you can just stare at the ocean view from your room, or bring your favorite book and relax on the water balcony. Spend a luxurious time.
After soaking in the jacuzzi while watching the sunrise, it was cold outside, so I took a leisurely dip into the indoor bath. I could see the sea from everywhere and it was very refreshing.
Breakfast08:00
while basking in the morning sun
Have a healthy breakfast
For breakfast, you can choose between Japanese or Western food. Japanese food is especially recommended. It is a menu that will make you feel relieved from the morning, such as rice with earthenware pot rice with Uonuma Koshihikari rice dipped in dashi-maki tamago and grilled fish.
We had a Japanese set meal for breakfast. The white rice freshly cooked in the earthen kiln was glossy and delicious, and there were many side dishes, so I ordered another one♪
Check-out10:00
leave the inn
be drawn in unintentionally
spectacular art
You can appreciate the art in the hotel until you check out. There are eye-catching works of art scattered throughout the building, such as Tomohiro Kano's glass art and Tokichiro Tokuriki's majestic fusuma paintings.
After breakfast, I spent time in the private bath and looking at the art works in the hotel. I was so happy to see my favorite Sugahara glass tableware at the gift shop!
Sightseeing11:00
``Only in Atami''
Looking for souvenirs
In Atami, there are plenty of souvenirs such as onsen manju, sweets such as retro cute Atami pudding, and deep-fried kamaboko. How about getting some delicious dried fish souvenirs at Kamatsuru, a long-established store that has been around since the Edo period?
I bought recommended dried fish such as horse mackerel and alfonsino at "Kamazuru Himo Honten" and went home. The taste was solid and my husband went with sake, and I went with rice.
Return trip15:00
glass, sea and art
Two days in contact with the extraordinary
Two days healed by the magnificent sea and sky. Surrounded by glass, the sea, and art, your dream-like stay will be an unforgettable memory for the rest of your life. Why don't you go and make precious memories with your loved ones?

Late 30's / Housewife
Stayed December 2019
I thought I'd eat fish at the inn, so I had soba noodles for lunch. I ate tempura soba and fried eggs at the soba restaurant "Taga". The amount of soba noodles is small, so we recommend ordering two servings.
