Kai-Beppu opened in July 2021 in Beppu Onsen, Oita Prefecture, well known as Japan's premier hot spring city. Kai Beppu's unique concept of a 'dramatic hot spring town,' was designed by world-famous architect Kengo Kuma. His creative expression translates the entire building into a uniform hot spring village. As you step into the stay, the bustling Beppu Onsen town spreads out with stone paths illuminated by traditional Japanese paper lanterns, souvenir shops, and a space inspired by a night market. In addition, all rooms feature a view of Beppu Bay, which spreads out in front of you, allowing you to experience the hourly change of color in the sea and the sky. It is pure joy to be able to witness such dramatic changes in natural beauty, from the comfort of your room and throughout the entire stay.

All 70 guest rooms boast a picturesque ocean view of Beppu Bay. The wide window is structured for a seamless transition from indoor to outdoor living, giving you a sense of unity as if you are floating in the sky. A variety of room types are available, and the wallpaper in the special rooms is unified in "persimmon blue", which reflects the red of Beppu's major tourist attraction "Blood Pond Hell". Upper floored rooms' special features include an open-air bath. We hope you will be able to enjoy the tranquility of greeting the morning sun or gently kissing the night sky while taking a leisurely soak.

For dinner, you can enjoy Oita's specialty, gabosu (citrus fruits), and kaiseki cuisine (Japanese course meals) served in special bamboo-crafted bowls. Beppu's large bath features both an open-air and an indoor bath where you can soak in the beautiful garden with seasonal flowers and autumn leaves. There is also a 'Spring Plaza' where you can enjoy a soothing foot bath and cleanse your hands with tender care, in the midst of an open space with a panoramic view of Beppu Bay. In the laboratory, a variety of programs are readily available, where you can experience the traditional crafts and culture of the region. You can truly feel the charm of Beppu exclusive to your stay here, the beautiful scenery, and locality in hospitality is truly one of a kind. We hope that you can resonate with the story of the region through the delicate meals, interaction with the environment, and wholesome experience programs.
