Seiho Sanso Honkan is a special space that transcends time, steeped in history and tradition. Built as a villa for Kimura Seishiro, the former 10th Deputy Governor of the Bank of Japan, Honkan boasts a relaxed, free-flowing design incorporating the sukiya-zukuri style and spacious 198m² guest rooms. We offer a luxurious stay limited to one group per day.

ABOUT HOTEL

The concept of Seiho Sanso Honkan is "an inn immersed in a historical space." Honkan, originally built around 1913 as the villa of Kimura Seishiro, the 10th Deputy Governor of the Bank of Japan, was acquired by the Ehara family in 1936 and relocated to its current location on Mount Akagi in Maebashi City, Gunma Prefecture. The spacious 198m² space blends Japanese and Western-style rooms, providing a luxurious stay. Honkan, built in the sukiya-zukuri style, combines historical design with modern comfort. A Japanese-style garden spreads out in the yard, allowing you to enjoy beautiful scenery throughout the seasons.

HOUSE

Honkan features a spacious living room, Western-style bedrooms, a cypress bath and sauna, and a beautiful garden. The spacious 198m² guest rooms are a fusion of historical design and modern comfort.
