About Genjiko

"Genjiko" is a Japanese-style ryokan in Minamichita, Aichi, that welcomes guests with the fragrance of incense. Its hallmark is all-ocean-view guest rooms facing Ise Bay. On the 10th floor, the top floor, there is an open-air bath in the sky with an unobstructed view of the sea, where you can fully enjoy the natural hot spring called Minamichita Onsen, also known as fossil water from ancient times. At the compact sauna on the premises, you can sweat luxuriously while taking in the spectacular view. Although there is no cold plunge bath, outdoor air bathing in the sea breeze provides the ultimate relaxation. With Genji Monogatari-themed rooms and meals featuring fresh seafood from Ise Bay, it is an anniversary inn where you can spend a special day away from the bustle of everyday life.
