The perfect place to experience the traditional Japanese way of life. The rooms are tatami-matted, with futon bedding. The guests rent a cotton YUKATA to use as a bathrobe and nightwear, and in winter a thick HANTEN quilted jacket.
The entrance and kitchen area has a hard earthen floor called a DOMA, where footwear was taken off. It is an aspect of the Japanese inside/ outside concept. The entrance located in between functions as a kind of purifier of everybody entering.
Historical Architecture
The desktop is a sacred space. Low traditional desks called FUZUKUE are used in tatami rooms. Writing and reading were regarded not just as study, but a way to discipline ourselves. We are expected to keep a proper sitting posture.
The guest could graspe the elegance of rustic and subdued simplicity, and discover in it new qualities. It is a kind of combination of simplicity, patina, moderation, and slight but deliberate imperfection.

Japanese-Style Standard Twin Room with Private Toilet
The smallest unit of Japan
Every Hostel HARUYA have Japanese-Style Economy Twin Room. The width of the room is only 6㎡. This is the smallest room of Japan. Like a tea-ceremony room in the architecture, like a 31-syllable Japanese poem in the literature, Noh and a Noh comedy in the theatrical art, a Japanese sense of beauty was whetted in the limitation. In this little time, space, brightness, the limited life is emphasized.
