Nishi-Izu Meguri, a Wellness Ryokan Focused on 4 Types of Health, Opens July 1, 2026 in Doi Onsen

A new wellness ryokan, "Nishi-Izu Meguri (西伊豆 巡り)," is scheduled to open on July 1, 2026 in Doi Onsen, Izu City, Shizuoka. The inn's official website has launched and accommodation plan reservations are now open as of May 14, 2026.

The property was previously operated as "Doi Onsen Hotel Minamiso" and has been reimagined under the concept of "a 4-katsu inn for nurturing yourself." The four wellness pillars — known as 4活 (4-katsu) — are: 温活 (onsen thermal wellness), 腸活 (gut health), 癒し活 (relaxation), and 睡眠活 (sleep wellness).
