Ozu Castle, Japan

Open to guests for just 30 days a year, we’ve got Ozu Castle in our little black book. Ready to live like an Edo lord? Of course you are.

Castle stay in a renovated wooden keep for 2 to 6 guests per night or Castle Town Hotel for 2 to 4 guests per night 

Watch, no, live history at Ozu castle town in Ehime, Shikoku, an island southwest of central Japan. Fully immersive to the point of veritable time travel, Ozu Castle Town is a cultural extravaganza that offers reenectactments of Sadoyasu Kto (the 1617 lord of course) entering the castle, guided tours, traditional Ozu performing art set to cour music, cuisine with locally-sourced ingredients and presented as set meals for Lords and Ladies at a nationally-designated cultural property, Garyu Sanso Mountain Villa, not to mention moongazing from the Koran Yagura Turret. 

Of course, culture aside, the stay is pretty incredible. Regal-loving guests have the choice of staying within Ozu Castle in its refurbed wooden keep, complete with illuminated-castle views from the bath of the intimate hotel within the town. Whichever you choose, it will be just you and your loved ones. That’s luxury.
