Traditional tatami ryokan stay wearing a yukata
Hiroshima · Japan
About this experience
A stay in a traditional ryokan begins with a hush: shoes come off at the entrance and the room is covered in tatami matting. You wear a yukata, bedding is laid on the floor and the evening passes on light feet. Around Hiroshima this rhythm offers a plain, restful change from a modern hotel room.
Slippers are not worn on tatami, only socks, so slip-on shoes are handy. Sitting and sleeping at floor level needs thought if you have back or knee trouble, so mention it beforehand. Follow the house's guidance on dinner and the yukata.
