Enjoy the early summer of Hakone with a “hydrangea stay”

2021.05.15

“Hydrangea” is in full bloom in early summer. The Hakonetozan Line, which connects Odawara Station to Gora Station, is nicknamed the “hydrangea train,” and you can see the colorful hydrangeas from the train window. At the hot spring inn “Hoshino Resort Kai Hakone” in Hakone, we will hold an accommodation plan “Hydrangea Exhausted Stay” for a limited time.
You can appreciate the hydrangea while listening to the babbling of the clear stream Sukumogawa flowing in front of you, and in the guest room you can make accessories by combining Hakone’s traditional craft “Hakone parquet” with hydrangea, and Japanese sweets that look like hydrangea. Enjoy a hydrangea-filled stay, including tasting.

Guest room rim and hydrangea

KAI Hakone has only one room, “Hakone Parquet Room, Japanese-style room with a murmuring rim stand”, which is one of the local rooms in “Kai” where you can fully feel the local culture. The guest rooms are arranged using Hakone parquet. Hydrangea blooms around the pedestal approaching the Sukumo River from the window of the guest room, and you can enjoy the babbling of the river and the view of Mt.

Accessory kit that combines Hakone parquet and hydrangea

In the guest room, we will prepare an “accessory kit” that combines Hakone parquet with hydrangea petals and petals. An original Zuku created with the Hakone parquet workshop “Rokuki Woodworks” (thinly cut blocks with a pattern of wood). By combining with hydrangea parts, you can make summer accessories such as hairpins and earrings that match your yukata.

Offering hydrangea Japanese sweets and hydrangea kakigori in the tea room

The guest rooms have a tea room with hydrangea and Hakone parquet hanging scrolls. In this tea room, you can enjoy Japanese sweets such as Neri-kiri that imitate hydrangea with matcha. We will prepare a sweet tray and matcha bowl made of Hakone parquet. In addition, after taking a breath, the original shaved ice “Hydrangea Kakigori” of Kai Hakone, which expresses the colorful blue-purple hydrangea with jelly and syrup, is also offered, and you can taste the sweetness with the theme of hydrangea.

Iide Town, Yamagata Prefecture] “Submerged Forest of Lake Shirakawa,” a Mysterious Spring-Only Scene 

The mysterious scenery of Lake Shirakawa in the town of Iide in southern Yamagata Prefecture can be seen only during two months in spring. In spring, a large amount of melt water flows into Lake Shirakawa from the Iide mountain range, one of Japan’s 100 most famous mountains, where there is heavy snowfall. When the lake is full of water, it creates a fantastic sight of white willow trees as if they are growing out of the water.

[Hoshinoya Tokyo] “New Year’s Kabuki Stay” brings the hospitality of an Edo Period theatrical teahouse to the present day.

Hoshinoya Tokyo, a Japanese-style inn located in Otemachi, Tokyo, will again this year host the “New Year Kabuki Stay” program, a two-day and one-night stay from January 5 to 26, 2024.
For people living in Edo, one of their New Year’s pleasures was to watch Kabuki, and it was a chic way to spend the New Year. Theatrical teahouses supported this way of enjoying Kabuki. In addition to arranging tickets to the theater, the teahouses delighted patrons by providing a complete range of services, including plot notes, tea, sweets, makunouchi box lunches, and snacks and drinks (*1). Hoshinoya Tokyo offers a stay to celebrate the New Year with hospitality similar to the theatrical teahouses of the time.
