Iwaso Ryokan

Opened pre-Meiji Era by Iwakuniya Sobei, Iwaso has seen all walks of famed figures pass through its doors - the imperial family of Japan, Mother Teresa, and Helen Keller, to name a few. Set on a hillside at the base of the ropeway leading up to Mount Misen, Iwaso is a 10-minute walk from the main ferry harbor and village and is also a short walk from Itsukushima Shrine, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Breakfast and dinner are served to guests onsite; breakfast is served in the ryokan's restaurant, Momoji, while dinner is usually taken in the rooms, of which there are 38, spread across three buildings. Its traditional baths are fed by Wakamiya Hot Spring, and other amenities include a Tea Lounge, Banquet Hall and Conference Room.
