About the Room

“Tsuchi” room is a distinctive space crafted by a British artist, where the walls incorporate real soil from the ancient kofun (burial mound) just outside. This natural element creates a cooling, grounded atmosphere — especially refreshing in summer — evoking the tranquil comfort of a cave.

As you move through the earthy, cave-like interior, a staircase leads to a second-floor bedroom, where sunlight pours in and offers a direct view of the ancient mound. A deep bath inspired by the rear chamber of the kofun invites you to soak in stillness, surrounded by the quiet presence of history.
