A Tranquil Stay in a Renovated 100-Year-Old Merchant House
Nestled in the nostalgic port town of Hiwasa, Oyado Hiwaya is a lovingly restored former shipping merchant house with over 100 years of history. The main building offers four calm Japanese-style rooms, and there’s also a separate traditional house available for private rental. The entire property is non-smoking and comes with Wi-Fi and laundry facilities. Guests can enjoy a self-service breakfast with bread, jam, and coffee.
Conveniently located within walking distance of the 23rd temple, Yakuoji, the inn provides both peaceful rest and practical access for pilgrims. It’s a warm, home-like place that gently prepares both mind and body for the journey ahead.

Stayed on the 6th day of the pilgrimage.
A historic building that has been renovated from a 100-year-old house.
Inside, you can spend a very comfortable time with the old private house and the current facilities! (There is also a cooler and Wi-Fi)
At night, I didn’t close the shutters and slept in the moonlight, but it was a calming space.
