Zaborin Ryokan, Relax in Paradise in Hokkaido

Located in Hokkaido, the northernmost of the Japanese islands, Zaborin Ryokan is nestled in a haven of nature where it welcomes visitors.

Much more than just a hotel, its quiet, idyllic surroundings and luxurious rooms guarantee a paradisiacal stay for all its guests.

‘Escape in the woods through thought’

Without departing from the classic touch and irreproachably warm welcome of ryokan (traditional Japanese inns), the establishment has a more modern exterior due to its architecture, designed by Makoto Nakayama, which blends into the landscape. This desire for cohesion between the interior and exterior is also reflected in the name of the hotel, Zaborin, which is Japanese for ‘to sit and escape in the woods through thought’.

Serenity reigns within the establishment. Visitors experience it when enjoying a traditional meal made by a Japanese chef using ingredients from the forest and lake adjacent to the site, or simply when wandering around one of the hotel’s fifteen private villas. Each has an indoor and outdoor onsen with panoramic views of the surrounding nature.

More information about Zaborin Ryokan can be found on the establishment’s website.
