Uncovering 111 secrets that make “Kai” unique and appealing Kai, a popular brand within the Hoshino Resorts Group, is a hot spring inn where you can experience the charm of the land. What is it that makes people want to return after their first visit? This interview began with that thought in mind. In doing so, we thoroughly unearthed the “secrets” of each facility that even KAI staff are unaware of, and found them to be the source of their charm. The facilities embody the spirit of hospitality for guests, the local experiences, the meals that make generous use of local ingredients… These are all secrets that are no wonder why there are so many repeat visitors. KAI is not just a base for travel, it is the very purpose of the trip. There, you will be treated to the utmost by local experiences that can only be found at KAI, artisans who shine with the skills of traditional crafts, and staff who are eager to convey all of this to you. The “things,” “experiences,” and “people” you can encounter at KAI, as well as the stories that flow through them, are the true joy of the trip and never cease to fascinate guests.

The hot spring inn “Kai” offers the benefits of a two-day, one-night hot spring cure. All of our facilities share the same pride as hot spring inns. That is, our desire to allow guests to relax in our hot springs, even if it’s just for one or two nights. Previously, a hot spring cure meant staying for a week, but that was difficult. So we came up with the “Beautiful Modern Hot Spring Cure” menu, which allows for a one-night, two-day hot spring cure. The method for achieving this is one of the “secrets” we hope you’ll learn by reading this magazine.

Right: As part of the “Beautiful Modern Hot Spring Therapy” program, the “Modern Hot Spring Therapy Exercises” held in the morning incorporate movements related to the local area. Special benefits also available with purchase of this magazine Kai Sencha Yokan and Hojicha Yokan are popular original products available for purchase at all KAI hotels. These light and airy yokan, created by Noriyuki Hamada, executive chef of the entire Hoshinoya brand, “feel like you’re drinking tea.” Concerned about declining orders and excess inventory during the COVID-19 pandemic, Chef Hamada personally selected the ingredients and developed the recipe with the aim of supporting the tea industry and tea culture by developing products using tea, an essential ingredient in Japanese hospitality. This magazine comes with a voucher for a “souvenir set” that includes this original yokan and the most popular souvenir from each accommodation. Be sure to visit a KAI facility to find the answer to the secret and get your hands on the “souvenir set.”
