RITA Izumifumoto  

In Izumi's preserved samurai quarter in Kagoshima Prefecture — a tiny guesthouse set among historic samurai residences. Steps from the Izumi Historical Museum and the Izumi-Fumoto Samurai Residences, with Izumi City Crane Museum and Hakozakihachiman Shrine a short drive away.

A boutique samurai‑residence stay spread across historic wooden buildings, opened in 2022 as the area's first accommodation. The property preserves original architecture, antique chests and traditional crafts so you feel the past — rooms are simple, private and intentionally TV‑free to keep the mood authentic. Private bathrooms feature separate showers and deep soaking tubs; in‑room kettles, tea/instant coffee and daily housekeeping keep things comfortable.

Garden views, complimentary wireless internet and free on‑site self parking. On‑site restaurant serves local cuisine breakfasts (daily 7:30–9:00 for a fee). Front desk has limited hours, and thoughtful touches include hair dryers and preserved period furnishings — wake up to quiet garden mornings in the samurai quarter.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi throughout the property and free self parking make short work trips easy. Ask at check‑in for additional guest info.

An on‑site restaurant offers local cuisine breakfasts each morning (7:30–9:00, fee applies). Expect regional Kagoshima flavors presented simply to match the authentic, traditional setting.
