“A chic 22-room hotel set in a 140-year-old building near the port. Owned by Aman founder Adrian Zecha, the style and service are well-polished. Interiors are decorated with a contemporary take on traditional ryokan design. With hot baths and very good regional cuisine, this is an indulgent stay.”

Azumi Setoda

A contemporary Japanese ryokan inn for the 21st century. Azumi Setoda – brought to life by legendary Aman founder Adrian Zecha – mixes crafted tearoom aesthetics with modern minimalism in a century-old former residence and bathhouse, on an island famed for its lemons in the scenic Seto Inland Sea.
