ROOM
Tatsumi Room
This room boasts a unique design that makes it one of the most popular at Ryokan Kurashiki. The entrance is kura style, with the distinctive black tiles and white piping, and opens onto a set of stairs that leads upstairs, under the eaves.
The popular writer Ryotaro Shiba wrote several of his novels in this room, no doubt inspired by the beautiful view over the trees and rooftops of Kurashiki's Bikan quarter. He must have also appreciated the fine details of the room, the old wood of the 260-year-old structure and the prints, oil paintings and other artworks, as well as the exposed beams in the ceiling that give the room a compact and cozy atmosphere.
