Hotel & Restaurant | HIRAKAWA CORPORATION

Offering Rich, Fruitful Times

Overview

Our hotel/restaurant business began 31 years ago in 1988 with the opening of Nara Plaza Hotel, attached to Nara Kenko Land. After that, we opened small luxury hotels such as Sankara Hotel & Spa Yakushima and Castle Hotel & Spa NY and restaurants such as La Maison de Graciani Kobe Kitano. When we began to open these locations, our first thought was “What is richness?” With that at the forefront, we have fostered a business that offers richness in spirit for modern people. We expect Japan’s tourism and travel industry to keep growing, and we too intend to keep offering richness in spirit through this business.
