GREETINGS
Welcome.
We are "Kitsukan", a hot spring inn established in 1982,and located in Kyotango City of Kyoto Prefecture.
A small onsen style inn, welcoming just 4 groups per day. From cuisine to scenery to onsen. With all that Kitsukan has to offer, you will feel at ease here.
Tango is sourounded by rich green scenery and has a nearby fishing port. Local vegetables are grown in the blessed nature rich surroundings, fresh catches from the sea are landed in the nearby port, here you can experience the charm of the area and savor the flavor of both land and sea.
Using plenty of savory local ingredients, dishes are diligently cooked and prepared for you to enjoy your meal in your room while looking out onto our prized moss garden. Once your stomach is filled to satisfaction, next loose yourself in the Kitsukan hot spring, one of the oldest skin beautifying baths in Kyoto.
Although we are not luxurious, Kitsukan is rooted in the heart of the Japanese for its time honored hospitality.
We may have some imperfections, but we have the support of many patrons, we are greatful to welcome another day, we will continue to devote ourselves to making a ryokan that will be loved by all.
Kitsu-Onsen
The inn's hot spring source is named the same "Kitsukan Onsen". The natural temperature of the water is about 25℃. Because of the cooler temperature a boiler is used to heat the water to a more comfortable temperature (40℃ in the summer and 41℃ in the winter). Here, the bath floor is normally naturally slightly warmed to comfortable temperature by the geothermal energy. Enjoy the onsen and warm yourself through and through with heat from the earth.

Cuisine
Hospitality with Fresh Seafood
Our kaiseki - Japanese banquet - cuisine uses an abundance of fresh and local Tango seafood. A cherry anthias course with abalone, and dinner options that include meat (according to the season).
The male black abalone's meat is thicker and tougher, a very satisfactory dish.
We also suggest trying a Japanese wagyu fillet steak that is lighter on fat content.
*Female abalone may be used depending on the market.

The hospitality of winter is the
taste of king crab
This is Tango's winter! Eat crab to your heart's content. The main dish in a full course, chose a boiled crab course, a crab course with tempura or similar; courses can be adjusted according to your budget as well. Our live crab course is the exceptionally fresh, we prepare the crab after showing you the crab still alive.
*Because it is difficult to make sure crab is being cooked at the right heat, our staff will take care of the cooking to ensure the utmost tastiness of the crab.
