Gosoku-no-Kutsu is a Japanese-style inn
Experience fine Japanese culture!
Gosoku-no-Kutsu is located on one of the Amakusa Islands on the west extremity of Kyushu, facing the East China Sea. In this mountain within 8.15 acres of land we created the only 15 different types of villas. This ryokan only uses a huge piece of land to create the luxurious atmosphere.
Gosoku-no-Kutsu is a Japanese-style inn. From days of old, Japanese-style inns, or ryokan, have always been more than mere places for travelers to stay. With a certain subtlety and elegance, they epitomize the beauty and nobility of the Japanese way of life.
Ryokan are therefore very different from ordinary hotel-style accommodations, and staying in a ryokan for one night is an excellent chance to immerse oneself in and experience fine Japanese culture. We believe this difference will become obvious to you when you stay with us.

While traveling you may need time alone to ponder around in order to understand your soul.
When I was young, I loved to travel. When I went out for a trip I always told myself the quote above. In order to create this resort “Ishiyama Rikyu Gosoku-no-Kutsu”, I traveled many miles to find a land where there were no man-made buildings which can be seen nearby. The land had to be in a natural atmosphere as much as possible which the customers feel the nature`s power of relaxation. The red burning sun, the clear blue sky, the grand sea, the stars you can see twinkling brightly.
These natural sceneries you have to see with your own eyes. All you can hear are the soothing sounds of the wind, birds chirping and the roaring sea. The sounds that can make you believe in ideas you never thought of in your environment. Gosoku-no-Kutsu is always filled with thoughts of new ideas and new inspirations that can become reality the place thoughts are meant to happen. I am hopeful that the traveler`s have made new inspirations in this resort which can become something wonderful in the future.
