Kai Sengokuhara Launches 'Sengokuhara Art Retreat' Plan

Kai Sengokuhara, an atelier hot spring ryokan, will launch the 'Sengokuhara Art Retreat' stay plan starting September 1, 2026. This 3-day, 2-night plan offers a private studio environment paired with open-air baths to help guests reset.

The guest room terraces will feature a 'Private Hot Spring Atelier,' designed to provide a focused creative space with panoramic mountain views. Guests can refresh in the hot spring whenever they feel creatively stuck, facilitating new ideas.

A key feature is the 'Art Iroha' program, where guests learn to mix their own theme colors using 'iwa-enogu' (traditional mineral pigments). Included in the plan are tickets to the Pola Museum of Art, allowing guests to draw inspiration from Monet's works and channel it into their own paintings in their private studio.

To further deepen immersion, the plan provides sensory-enhancing items, including aroma lights, original art cocktails, and nuts by local shop sagamiya. The plan is limited to one group per day (up to 3 people), and reservations are required at least four days in advance. It runs from September 1 to November 30, 2026, with rates starting at 76,200 yen per person.
