Concept
Rediscover your Inner Peace
ZEN Guesthouse Konichi-an is a guesthouse that was renovated from a traditional Japanese home about 70 years ago.
The owner's grandfather built the original structure as a private Japanese home about 70 years ago.
Apart from several renovations, including modernizing the kitchen and bathroom fixtures, we concentrate on maintaining the nostalgic look and feel of Old Japan.
In short, we have updated where necessary while preserving the beauty and integrity of this historical home.
Included in the name of our establishment, ZEN Guesthouse Konichi-an, is the word "Zen (禅)".
"Zen" is a term that designates a simple, relaxed, and unattached state of being.
The name, "Konichi-an (好日庵)", comes from the Zen words, "Nichi-nichi-kore-ko-nichi (日日是好日)".
In Zen terminology, this refers to a state of enlightenment.
These words remind us that every single day is a precious and irreplaceable gift.
At ZEN Guesthouse Konichi-an, there is no television.
We encourage you to delight in a quiet moment, converse with your fellow guests, or bask in our pleasant music.
You can pass the time on the engawa (garden-side veranda), overlooking the garden.
In winter, you can warm yourself under the kotatsu (a Japanese covered table with a built-in heater).
At night, make sure to look up and immerse yourself in the star-studded sky.
Within walking distance from JR Shirahama Station and its hustle and bustle of hot spring visitors, welcome to a new world where time moves at a relaxed pace.
While we won't extend to you every imaginable service like standard hotels and ryokan (Japanese traditional inns), we offer a zen-like retreat from the stress of daily life.
Stand still, relax, and appreciate the season.
Join us and rediscover your inner peace.
We are looking forward to your visit.
