Kiso Valley, surrounded by the beautiful mountains of central Japan, enchants visitors throughout the four seasons of the year.
Enjoy wandering through Narai-juku where you can still feel the nostalgia of old Japan.
At Iseya, relax in the breathtaking atmosphere rich in history.
We look forward to welcoming you.
The traditional inn Iseya was founded in 1818 (the late Edo era) as a small wholesale store.
The buildings have unique architectural features such as dashibari-zukuri (slightly overhanging second floor rooms) and plaster-finishing sode-udatsu (small fire-preventive walls) attached to both sides of senbon-koshi (windows decorated with fine wooden lattice work)……
They still carry the feeling of the late Edo period, allowing you to see the representative architectural style of Narai-juku.
Guestrooms will make you feel as if you have travelled back in the good old days. Along senbon-koshi windows, you can imagine vividly as if travelers smiled happily with round wooden lunch boxes or people walked along the street with their mouths full of miso-taste gohei rice cakes.
The Japanese style rooms still retain the atmosphere when they were originally constructed. Through lattice windows, you can get a feel for the Nakasendo.
These rooms were built more than 200 years ago.
Careful attention is paid to keep these rooms cozy so that guests can stay comfortably.
The rooms in the main building include Japanese-style rooms along the road (2nd floor, 3 rooms), Japanese-style rooms along the road (1st floor, 1 room), and Japanese-style rooms on the courtyard side (2nd floor, 1 room).
*The toilet and washroom are shared and located on the first floor. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.
A short walk through a courtyard brings you to the annex.
You can relax comfortably in a bright, Japanese space.
In addition, there is one room on the first floor, so if you have difficulty climbing stairs, please let us know in advance when making a reservation.
Annex isn't a building in the Edo Period. The customer hoping for a stay in an old building choose a Japanese Style Rooms in Main Building, please.
*Shared toilets and washrooms are on the same floor.
Since both the main building and the annex are old wooden buildings, the entrance door is made of fusuma and wooden fittings. Loud voices in the room, loud TV sounds, etc. may leak outside or into the next room. We apologize for the inconvenience, but we would appreciate it if you could consider not making a loud noise.
There are two private baths available.(No reservation required)
You can relax and soak in the baths while looking out over the courtyard to heal the fatigue of your journey.
You can enjoy flavorful and nutritious food from mountains in the Kiso area, including mountain vegetables in spring and mushrooms in autumn, and freshwater fish cuisine.
Meals are served in a Japanese room in the main building.

Narai-juku was one of the historic post stations along the Nakasendo, an ancient highway connecting Edo and Kyoto. It was located at the foot of the Torii Pass, one of the hardest parts to go through the Nakasendo. Among 11 post stations in the Kiso area, Narai-juku prospered very much, called “Narai Senken (Narai of a thousand inns).”
Narai-juku is almost exactly halfway between Tokyo and Kyoto and marks the 34th post station from both places. The area extends about 1km along the Narai River and is the longest post station in Japan.
It still retains the atmosphere of the historic Edo era very much, attracting tourists to a nostalgic world.
