I visited Kofuyuho Beniya, a renowned inn in Awara Onsen, Fukui Prefecture.
Since its opening in 1884, it has been a historic inn frequented by figures such as Emperor Showa and Yujiro Ishihara.
Having overcome the great hardship of a fire in 2018, it now boasts 17 rooms, each with a private open-air bath fed by natural hot spring water, in a completely new form.
Even with the renovations, it still feels somehow familiar and comforting. I was able to feel the unchanging warmth of Beniya.
Above all, the food was truly wonderful.
It was so delicious that I booked a return visit for December before even checking out.
Instead of sightseeing everywhere, we simply relaxed at the inn.
I hope you'll enjoy a glimpse into our "just right trip."
