Hodoai no Yado Roppokan

Roppokan is a 30-room inn facing the Chikugo River and Minou mountain range. Every room shares the broad outlook, while thirteen accommodations add an outdoor bath for guests seeking more privacy.

The kitchen begins with Japanese technique and introduces Italian and Chinese ideas across small plates. Premium regional ingredients and seasonal produce give the meal both local grounding and a contemporary sense of movement.

Free-flowing alkaline simple water supplies communal and open-air baths, including a popular cypress setting. Roppokan is a strong fit for travelers who want river scenery, private-bath room choice, and a dinner that moves beyond a conventional kaiseki vocabulary without losing its regional base.
