The residence, built during the Taisho era, has been renovated into guest rooms where you can comfortably spend time with your beloved dog. It is located near the "Shinoyama Castle Ruins," a popular walking route for locals with their dogs, and in summer, you can enjoy the view of lotus flowers blooming across the moat. Each building in our facility is named after a type of chrysanthemum that was presented to the Tokugawa family, who constructed Shinoyama Castle. The NOKON building is derived from the "Yakon-kiku" (wild dark chrysanthemum).

History and life
are alive in the castle town
Tamba Sasayama, which developed around Sasayama Castle built in the center of a nature-rich basin surrounded by mountains, has nurtured a unique culture by its predecessors, which has been passed down to the present day along with the town's landscape.
The NOKON building is a room that has been renovated from a Taisho era residence, located right next to the ruins of the town's symbol, Sasayama Castle.
