A warm, restful inn with heartfelt cuisine to ease your pilgrim’s journey
Nestled in the tranquil countryside of Kokufu, Tokushima, Urokorou Inn is a long-standing traditional ryokan that quietly exudes charm. Located just a short walk from Temple 16, Kannon-ji, it’s a trusted stopover for walking pilgrims. The inn offers five clean and comfortable Japanese-style rooms and a spacious communal hall, all in a non-smoking environment that enhances its sense of calm. Its greatest appeal lies in the food: every member of the family holds a chef’s license, and they lovingly prepare meals using fresh local fish and seasonal ingredients — complete with handmade desserts like chiffon cake. Shared baths and toilets, free Wi-Fi, a laundry machine, and parking ensure a practical and stress-free stay. Pilgrims will also appreciate the complimentary shuttle service to and from Temples 13 to 17. Urokorou is a haven where hospitality and home-cooked nourishment await, helping you recharge and continue your sacred journey.

★★★★★ (5 out of 5 stars)
The degree of perfection that worries that the food will be in the red with this accommodation fee. The rooms and facilities are clean and comfortable.
