Hotel Enmichi

Hotel Enmichi

A path to life that connects local life with travelers.Hotel Enmichi is located on the site of what was once the approach to Inage Shrine, the main shrine, from Kawasaki-juku, the second post town on the Tokaido Road's 53 Stations, during the Edo period. It is believed to have been a place where travelers and pilgrims came and went, fostering various "connections." Here, we cherish the history of Kawasaki-juku, and believe in modern times, too, that the daily life of the local area is a tourism resource to be proud of. To this end, we aim to be an inn where various new "connections" are born of intersections between our community and the daily lives of travelers.Endo Restaurant Business Hours: Breakfast: Tuesday-Sunday, 7am–9am (closes once sold out) Lunch: Weekdays, 11:30am–2:30pm (Last order at 1:30pm); Weekends and holidays, 11:30am–3pm (Last order at 2pm) Dinner: Tuesday-Saturday, 5pm–9:30pm (Last order at 9pm) *Closed for dinner on Sundays and Mondays *Subject to change without notice on the day of operation.
