Shofuen  

Perched on Mikawa Bay in Gamagori, this beach onsen ryokan sits steps from Mikawawan Quasi‑National Park and the seaside. You're minutes from Lagunasia, Mt. Kobo and Takeshima, with a free shuttle available from Nagoya Station—ideal for family-friendly seaside escapes.

All 103 guestrooms are ocean‑view and air‑conditioned, with refrigerators, blackout curtains and bathrooms fitted with hair dryers and electronic bidets. The ryokan pairs classic onsen comfort with a panoramic open‑air bath and natural hot springs—guests often fall asleep to the sound of waves.

Soak in natural hot springs and an open‑air bath with sweeping bay views, then hit the seasonal outdoor pool or the indoor pool. There’s a spa offering massages, a sauna, arcade/game room, karaoke, lounge, banquet and a souvenir shop. Families will appreciate playrooms, table tennis and ping‑pong; free self‑parking is on site.

Event facilities include conference space and a meeting room, plus a 24‑hour front desk, luggage storage and complimentary wireless internet. Newspapers in the lobby and a concierge service add practical convenience for meetings and small events.

Dining highlights the catch of Mikawa Bay with fresh seasonal seafood and regional dishes, plus breakfast service to start your day. Grab a snack at the deli/convenience store, order room service, or unwind in the lounge—seasonal jellies are even offered after the bath.
