ABOUT
Founded in 1979, we operated as Kaze no Oka Nobara until we suffered damage from the Kumamoto Earthquake in 2016.
That damage forced us to suspend operations.
We completed the renovations to our long-awaited new building and reopened after about five and a half years in November 2021.
We have been reborn as a small hotel with a total of five rooms that include one for pets.
We also have a new name in MINAMI ASO NOBARA INN.
Our building has a kind and natural atmosphere where you can feel the warmth of the wood.
We have an elevator so it is accessible for everyone.
We welcome you with our popular European-style course dinner prepared with love and warmth distinctive of a business which has continued to be family-run since our foundation.
We hope you will continue to visit Kaze no Oka Nobara under our new name of MINAMI ASO NOBARA INN.
