About This Stay

At Seisei-an anco, in Okitsu — the birthplace of Japanese anko — you experience Japan's culinary culture with all five senses through wagashi-making, tea ceremony, and cooking classes. In a special collaboration with Shioya, the long-established sweet shop loved even by the Emperor, we deliver warm and gentle moments.

Guest Reviews

The kitchen was so well equipped that we couldn't wait to cook. The local taiyaki — the anko was exquisite.
Guest from JapanGuestbook (translated)
We enjoyed staying in an old, authentic Japanese house — amazed by how spacious it is. A quiet neighbourhood with easy access to the sights.
International guestAirbnb review
Having a historic house all to ourselves became the highlight of our Japan trip — a perfect stop along the old Tokaido.

Frequently Asked Questions

Check-in is from 3:00 PM and check-out is by 11:00 AM. With self check-in, a late arrival after 3:00 PM is no problem at all.

We use self check-in with no in-person procedure. After booking, you will receive access to a guest portal with everything you need for your stay: key pickup, Wi-Fi, parking, and directions.

Depending on the day's cleaning schedule and the next day's bookings, this may be possible — please ask us in advance. Dropping off your luggage before check-in can also often be arranged.

Free parking is available in front of the house. Your assigned space number is provided after booking. If you are coming with two or more cars, please contact us in advance.

The anco building has a private bathroom with a shower only, no bathtub (the neighboring momen building has one).

Not inside the house, but a coin laundry is about a 1-minute walk away. The machines dispense detergent automatically, so you do not need your own.

Babies are very welcome. We do not have cribs, but we lay out futons directly on the tatami floor, so there is no risk of your baby rolling off a bed (you may also bring a travel cot). Infants co-sleeping with you stay free of charge.

Because we preserve part of the original folk-house interior, some aspects differ from modern housing, such as steep stairs, uneven steps, and cold in winter. The water areas — toilet, shower, washroom, and kitchen — are newly built, and air conditioning is provided on each floor.

It is a card given to our guests. Present it at long-established confectionery shops and stores in Okitsu to receive a small complimentary treat. Enjoy strolling the old Tokaido town with the card in hand.

We recommend a café run by a tea shop for lunch and an izakaya run by a local fisherman for dinner. During your stay, we are happy to suggest more places to match your taste.

Smoking is prohibited throughout the building and premises. The house is in a quiet residential neighborhood, so we also ask you to keep noise down at night.
