THE RYOKAN COLLECTION

Under the sheltering boughs of the surrounding forest, the evening TAKIBI Lounge invites visitors to imbibe the beauty of their surroundings from the atavistic comfort of the fireside. Individual wrought iron firepits for each group and elegant lounge furniture are used to create a spacious open-air lounge equally suited for family bonding, solo relaxation, or a romantic tete-a-tete at dusk. Nostalgic campsite pleasures like roasted marshmallows and hot cocoa join the more adult delectations of homemade mulled wine, craft coffee, and seasonal light snacks prepared by Chef Yanagihara, all conspiring to lull guests into a peaceful languor ahead of dinner.
