In 1999, we created new ways to enjoy hot spring inns and added value through the “extraordinary” experience of private open-air baths, which were still rare at the time. Currently, we operate five inn facilities and three restaurants. We are also diversifying into new businesses such as craft beer and building our portfolio by opening new inn facilities with a different target audience. In this way, we aim to achieve sustainable growth in response to changes in the external environment. Kinnotake Resort Official HP ​ For more information about this release
