Treatment Area Fully Renovated, "Spa Casa Blanca" Opens
Kinugawa Kanaya Hotel, cherished by many as a "villa in the valley," embodies the world of hospitality and refined, dandyish aesthetics envisioned by its founder, John Kanaya Senji. The second-floor treatment area, extending from the first-floor public baths, has undergone a complete renovation and will reopen as "Spa Casa Blanca" on November 19 (Thursday).

Concept: "Wa Kei Yo San" – East Meets West
It is said that John Kanaya always kept Casablanca lilies in his room and had bouquets made as gifts for his esteemed guests' special occasions. Even today, Casablanca lilies are displayed daily at the entrance of Kinugawa Kanaya Hotel, their elegant white blossoms a symbol of the hotel. A spa bearing the name of this flower is now born.

The renovated spa, "Spa Casa Blanca," embraces the concept of "Wa Kei Yo San" (respecting Japanese traditions, praising Western culture), merging the "traditional hospitality" inherited from Japan's oldest established inn with ageless skincare featuring "platinum colloid" derived from cutting-edge technology, "platinum vuvu" (https://vuvu.co.jp/).
After warming the body in the public baths – the "Shiki no Yu" with its magnificent views of Kinugawa River on the first floor, and the "Kodai Hinoki no Yu" scented with two-thousand-year-old cypress (bath times are staggered) – guests can proceed directly to the second-floor treatment area. In two treatment rooms overlooking the Kinugawa valley, guests can experience platinum treatments utilizing the effects of specially processed colloids (microparticles) that have earned patents in 11 countries for their contribution to "mental and skin health."
An unprecedented spa treatment in an elegant space themed with Japanese modern aesthetics. A time for complete mind and body rejuvenation, a reward for yourself.
