*************** About MUKUten.sha Fujinomiya***************
MUKUten.Sha Fujinomiya is a maisonette villa-type hotel that opened in January 2024 and is limited to one group per day.
"MUKU" means "solid wood" in Japanese.
“ten" means "above the heavens" or "on a wooden board" in Japanese.
“舎Sha" is a kanji character that represents good fortune in a house and is pronounced “sha".
The silhouette of the character "sha" is an auspicious design.
The slope of the gable roof of the building matches the ridgeline of Mount Fuji, and all Japanese wood is used to create an interior space that evokes the silhouette of the character “舎sha".
Please enjoy the attention to detail born from the design of an architect who wanted to create an auspicious inn and the craftsmanship of the artisans.
The romance and power of Japanese trees, such as cedar, zelkova, and beech, which have been considered sacred trees since the mythological era more than 2,000 years ago, and ancient cedars from Yakushima that are more than 1,200 years old, are incorporated into the structure and interior of the building.
The bathtub and sauna are made of cypress from the foot of Mt. Fuji.
The bedroom is made of four 4.4m wide, 70cm thick planks. The headboard is a single plank 1m wide made of camphor, a famous tree that has been considered auspicious since ancient times. Camphor is not only a symbol of longevity and immortality, but also a fragrant tree. The scent of camphor's natural essential oils and the gentle, soothing wood grain will help you sleep peacefully during your trip.
The shoji screens that gently divide the space are made using traditional techniques by the local Fujinomiya City Yu Handmade Washi Workshop. They are made by hand from materials such as kozo, mitsumata, and gampi, and finished using the traditional sun-drying method of taikobari.
The lounge is only available for breakfast in the evening, and breakfast is only available to guests. The plan includes a self-service breakfast and evening local sake service. In the lounge, you can enjoy your meal at a large table made from sacred ancient zelkova wood that sprouted approximately 2,000 years ago.
For breakfast, we offer the ultimate local fish, "Mt. Fuji Salmon (rainbow trout)," which is raised with the bounty of the rich forest spring water and river. We offer a menu using local seasonal ingredients.
