Kikkawa Jozo Co., Ltd.

In 1661 (the first year of the Kanbun era), we opened our doors as a mountain pass teahouse in Hayama, Shonan—a region overlooking Mount Fuji across the sea. We began operating as an inn in 1876 (the 9th year of the Meiji era), and following the completion of the Hayama Imperial Villa in 1894 (the 27th year of the Meiji era), the area flourished as a resort destination. In 1934 (Showa 9), the main building was rebuilt, giving Hikasha Chaya its current form, and it was designated a Registered Tangible Cultural Property in 2011 (Heisei 23). To preserve the history and traditions we have cultivated over the years for future generations, we invite you to fully enjoy our cuisine, prepared with fresh local ingredients, and our warm hospitality.

La Mare is a restaurant built to appear as if it’s floating on the waters of Hayama.

The first floor is a casual café and brasserie, while the second floor serves course meals. We invite you to enjoy a warm, welcoming atmosphere and a pleasant, homey experience at our restaurant, which offers a panoramic view of the ocean.

Hayama Town, Kanagawa Prefecture. Travelers visiting this area tend to explore not only Hayama but also Shonan, Kamakura, Yokohama, and other nearby destinations. Against this backdrop, we developed a plan to offer a “stay in Hayama” experience that stands apart from anything that has come before. The concept we eventually arrived at was “Connecting People, the Sea, Nature, and the Town.” We listened to the voices of history, made use of the distinctive features of the buildings, and connected the past with the future. Furthermore, we connected local residents with visitors, creating a collage of experiences. As a result, it became an “open space” where guests can enjoy not only the hotel itself but the entire region.
