Recognized as one of the oldest types of accommodation in the world, ryokans symbolize the deep hospitality of their owners. These traditional inns, once frequented by samurais, merchants, and nobles, strive to make their guests feel as welcome as possible. At Viseu Ryokan, the differences compared to Western hotels are noticeable from the moment you arrive. You'll be greeted by a friendly receptionist who provides a pair of slippers to use in the common areas. The rooms are meticulously designed with a Japanese ambiance, featuring tatami flooring and comfortable futon beds. You'll also find a yukata, a traditional Japanese garment similar to a kimono, awaiting you. Inspired by traditional Japanese hot springs (onsen), the ryokan's SPA offers a sauna, hot tub, and massage services. It's a calm and relaxing retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The Viseu Ryokan, located in a 300-year-old house in the historic center of Viseu, aims to strike a perfect balance between Japanese culture and its own history. The architectural details of the centuries-old house have been preserved, adding a touch of authenticity to your stay.
