Ozu City is located in the western part of Shikoku, in the region known as Nanyo, and is an area centered around the Ozu Basin, facing the Seto Inland Sea to the north and the Shikoku Mountains to the south. The clear Hijikawa River flows through the center of the city, and as its name suggests, the river curves like an elbow as it runs through the town, bringing many blessings to the city, including nature, history, culture, and local specialties. Remnants of the city's prosperity as a castle town around Ozu Castle during the Edo period still live on the banks of the Hijikawa River.

Suggesting ways to enjoy Ozu, which was awarded the world's most sustainable tourist destination
Ozu City is a castle town centered around Ozu Castle, and many historic buildings remain, but as the population continues to decline, the number of vacant houses is increasing. Therefore, a hotel utilizing an old folk house was born. Old houses dotted around the city have been renovated, and the entire town has become a dispersed hotel. In addition to guest rooms, the renovated old folk houses have attracted cafes and general stores, encouraging tourists to stay in the town for longer periods of time and revitalizing the local economy.
Centered around Ozu Castle, which is one of the few wooden buildings in Japan that has been completely restored, the city is filled with an amazing amount of charm, such as the historic townscape known as Iyo's Little Kyoto, and the beautiful contrast between the clear stream of the Hijikawa River and the mountain range. During your stay at NIPPONIA HOTEL Ozu Castle Town, you will feel like you are living in a castle town, and our concierge will arrange the best trip to suit you.
