Dyeing myself in the colours of the castle town, I'll try making matcha.
Takeda, being a castle town, has a thriving tea culture. We offer matcha as a welcome drink along with traditional Japanese sweets from a long-established local confectionery shop (excluding the single occupancy plan). We also have coffee ground fresh and specialty Japanese black tea. Additionally, as an optional extra, we offer a "Takeda Morning Set Meal (served in a tiered box)" for breakfast.

Renovation for clean sanitary spaces
While I like old things, when it comes to the bathrooms in hotel rooms when travelling, cleanliness and ease of use are the most important things, aren't they? Both the bath and toilet have been cleanly renovated. The bath is shower-only with no bathtub, butA ticket to your choice of one of four hot spring locations.I am doing it.
