Hanare Ninoumi — named after a beautiful scene of mist.
Here in the Tamba region, where Kameoka is located, a deep and mystical phenomenon known as the "Tamba fog" rolls in during the early mornings from autumn to spring. Long ago, our ancestors looked upon the breathtaking sight of this fog glowing crimson in the morning sun and named it "Ni-no-Umi"—the Sea of Crimson.
"Hanare Ninoumi" opened in October 2018. Taking its name from the beautiful local scenery, this unique inn offers a traditional Japanese historic house for rent as a fully private villa.
An accommodation facility renovated by Kameoka City from a 100-year-old traditional Japanese house located in the former Tamba Kameyama castle town, whose foundations were laid by Akechi Mitsuhide.
It features three distinct virra named after historic Kameoka local figures: ”OKYO”” BAIGAN”” RYOI”. Here, you can immerse yourself in a peaceful and relaxing historic stay.
The facility was supervised by Alex Kerr, a leading expert in old folk house restoration with a deep understanding of traditional Japanese beauty.
3 groups a day only. Experience local life as you travel.
Staying multiple nights is highly recommended for exploring Kyoto City and its surrounding areas! Spend your time comfortably as if returning to your own home, and head out to your next destination straight from "Ninoumi" the following day. Enjoy a relaxing trip while living in a traditional Japanese house—an experience unique from standard hotels.

The Appeal of Kameoka, "Another Kyoto"
Go a bit beyond Kyoto City, and you’ll find Kameoka—"Another Kyoto."
Located just west of Kyoto City and near the Arashiyama area, it is a peaceful, perfectly balanced town blessed with abundant nature.
Only 20 mins from Kyoto Station (10 mins from Saga-Arashiyama Station) via the JR Sagano Line Rapid Service. Highly accessible and the ideal hub for exploring Arashiyama, Toei Kyoto Studio Park, and beyond.
The Hozugawa River Boat Ride, Sagano Romantic Train, and SANGA STADIUM by KYOCERA are all within walking distance from here.
"SANGA STADIUM by KYOCERA" is right in front of JR Kameoka Station and bustles with soccer fans from across Japan (17 mins on foot from "Hanare Ninoumi").

During the autumn "Kameoka Matsuri Festival," the "Hagoromoyama" float passes directly in front of ”Hanare Ninoumi”. It is the perfect moment to experience the beautiful, old-world charm of our castle town.
