B&Bs in Hongu

The host is very nice, she makes sure all the guest’s request are satisfied.

Our host was lovely. Our fellow travelers were enthusiastic and generous. We loved being able to cook our dinner in a clean kitchen.

The kitchen is well equipped. The owner is very helpful and accommodating. Great place!!

The host Masao San was very jolly and welcoming. The house was well kept and the rooms very comfortable.

Tucked away in a peaceful, beautiful setting, this is easily one of the best BnBs.

Staying at Chanoka was a true highlight of our recent trip to Japan. Our room felt like a private retreat, with an epic view and every comfort thoughtfully provided: cozy chairs, tatami flooring, a lovely selection of teas (of course!), and a private washroom. After long days of hiking, it was exactly the kind of comfortable, welcoming space we needed. We opted for dinner, breakfast, and bento lunches, and were so glad we did. Every dish we enjoyed in the beautiful traditional dining room was exceptional. We especially appreciated the care behind each preparation and the thoughtful explanations that accompanied the meals. It’s clear that Jordan and his wife care deeply about the land they steward, the food they grow and prepare, and their tea harvest. I left with a deep appreciation for the subtle, layered flavours of roasted green tea, rice, soy sauce, and other delicacies, and with a lasting sense of genuine hospitality. Jordan also kindly drove us to the trailhead in the morning - a welcome treat for our sore muscles. After we left, we realized just how much we appreciated Chanoka’s peaceful setting, tucked away from the hubbub of Hongu. We will definitely be back.
