Iori Setogawa

From the outside, nothing gives away that there is a traveler’s home behind these walls. The Iori Setogawa fits perfectly among the charming, traditional townhouses. A warm, Japanese aesthetic that continues inside. The 100 years old, newly renovated townhouse is located in the heart of the castle town Hida Furukawa, in the center of Setogawa River and Shirakabe Dozo Street. With usually little tourism in a quiet town, but being right in the center, staying at this Iori property gives you the experience of being part of the local community. Visit the flower shop on the corner, stroll through the temple gardens, or feed the carp (when allowed in the right season) swimming in the stream right at your doorstep.

Iori Setogawa is a luxury antique house with three bedrooms, a small kitchenette, a wood stove in the living room for colder evenings, a Hida cypress heated bathtub as well as an open-air bath space. The entire house has been carefully restored with natural materials and traditional Hida craftsmanship.
