If you have ever fantasised staying at a hotel room replete with the best of luxuries, an outdoor onsen, a private garden and the works, check in at the Suiran. Located overlooking the Hozu River, amidst dense greenery, Suiran Hotel is a haven of luxury and tranquillity put together. Guests are welcomed to their room with a nice fruit basket and a heart-warming written note. Beyond the modish rooms (all non-smoking), there are secluded private gardens begging to be strolled. Offerings included in your stay feature large windows with remote controlled shutters that can be open or closed with a touch, flat-screen TVs, a lavish master bathroom, mini-fridges, and tea and coffeemakers, plus free Wi-Fi. Rooms with tatami mats and traditional, short-legged tables are available. Some exceptional rooms come with private terraces/balconies and living areas. The hotel offers 24-hour room service and great concierge services. The real highlight? An open-air spa, as well as a swish restaurant with a terrace overlooking the river.
