A Humble Inn Just Steps from Emmeiji Temple, Embracing Local Hospitality

Located in Horie, Matsuyama City—just a short walk from the 53rd temple, Emmeiji—Minshuku Saichi offers pilgrims a simple yet soul-soothing stopover. The guesthouse, centered around a no-frills, lodging-only model, welcomes guests with a warmth that feels like returning to grandma’s home. The nearby Horie Beach is another quiet attraction, where pilgrims can pause to feel the sea breeze and sense the changing seasons.
