Yagyunosho dates back to 1959 when the ryotei restaurant Yagyu opened in Shiba Shirokane, Tokyo. From the beginning as a purveyor of authentic Kyoto-style kaiseki cuisine, Yagyunosho emerged out of their founder's desire to further dedicate himself to the culinary arts. In 1970, inspired by the traditional scenery of Japan that remained unchanged for centuries on the mountainside of Shuzenji Temple, their founder decided that it should be home to an inn of quality and distinction. From his involvement in kendo, the founder took the revered Yagyu name and christened his newly built hot-spring inn--a classic sukiya-style structure nestled in a copse of bamboo-- as Yagyunosho.
In the decades since, in accordance with their founder's philosophy of "a conscientious inn of sumptuous comfort," they have consistently sought to make their inn a place where traditional cuisine, baths, scenery, hospitality, and the beauty of Japanese architecture come together as one.
In 2009, to mark their 40th anniversary, they undertook renovations of the entrance, baths, and all guest suites into authentic honsuki style using generations-old techniques of master craftsmen.
