Yasuragi

CELEBRATE OLD AGE
Today is Keirō no Hi 敬老の日, Respect for the Aged Day. This is a special Japanese holiday dedicated to celebrating our elders, honoring their wisdom, and wishing them health and longevity.

In Japanese culture, caring for and respecting older generations is a core value and today is a gentle reminder to pause and express gratitude to the elders who paved the way.

Take a moment today to reach out to a grandparent, mentor, or older loved one who has cared for you and brought wisdom into your life.

At Yasuragi, our entire philosophy is rooted in timeless Japanese traditions that promote lifelong well-being, mindfulness, and inner peace.

Whether it is sharing quiet moments in the hot springs, enjoying a good meal together, or simply slowing down to appreciate life’s journey. Book a stay with or for someone you respect.

A SEPTEMBER EVENING TO LONG FOR
Rinse off a good day’s work and step into another world. Take the boat to Yasuragi after work and let the city fade away into the crisp September evening. Walk through the garden and find yourself breathing deeper.

Relax in the soothing hot water of our Japanese bathhouse, watch the steam rise into the cool autumn air, and feel your shoulders drop with every deep exhale.

Recharge with a Japanese-inspired autumn dinner, full of rich seasonal flavors, and grab a drink before heading back home.

Make the most of a weekday. Book the September Evening package.

CATCH UP WITH YOUR TEEN
In the middle of a busy school term and demanding routines, finding meaningful time to reconnect with your teenager can be a challenge. This autumn break [Oct 23 - Nov 1] we invite you and your teenager to slow down, disconnect from screen noise, and catch up on what truly matters.

At Yasuragi, the soothing warmth of our Japanese bath create the perfect backdrop for quality time together.

Slip into matching yukatas enjoy the bath, share a Japanese dining experience and join a relaxing activity, or simply enjoy an uninterrupted conversation with a warm cup of tea in hand.

Give yourselves the space to pause, reflect, and catch up—together. Link to bookings in Highlights under Offers.

NAGORI 名残
The gentle art of letting go. Nagori 名残りis a Japanese word that describes the wistful feeling of parting, most deeply felt in the gentle farewell to a passing season.

As the warmth of late summer fades into the crisp air of early autumn, we invite you to pause and embrace Nagori (名残り)—the quiet nostalgia of a passing season. Step into the soothing warmth of our outdoor hot springs, breathe in the scent of pine, and welcome the changing season with total presence.

How are you honoring the turn of the season?

TEPPANYAKI KIRI
In Japanese culinary tradition, the visual experience is just as important as the taste. At our restaurant Teppanyaki Kiri, each table has its own chef who cooks the food in front of the guests on a grill plate. The combination of Japanese and locally sourced Swedish ingredients creates a unique dining experience. We serve a pre-set menu with 7 different dishes, inspired by Japanese cuisine and our surroundings.

The word ’teppanyaki’ comes from Japanese, where ’teppan’ means iron plate and ’yaki’ means grill. ’Kiri’ is Japanese for mist, fog – we hope you are enveloped by the same magical atmosphere as the mist can settle over an open landscape in the evening.

Book only a seat at the table or combine with relaxing time in the Japanese bath ♨️

RETHINK
You do not have to become someone new.
Welcome back to who you truly are.

At Yasuragi, taking time to pause means creating space to listen inward, slow down, and reconnect with what matters. Let go of the noise, the expectations, the endless doing. Instead let your senses roam free, listen to the heart that beats and the rythms of life.

Perhaps the best version of you isn’t a different version at all.

It’s more of your true self. 🌿

TIME FOR TWO
Autumn is slowly making its entrance. A time to slow down, reconnect and make space for the people who matter most.

Bring your favourite person to Yasuragi and enjoy the beauty of togetherness. Whether it’s your partner, a friend or a family member, connecting with the good people in your life can leave you feeling renewed and re-energised.

Add the calm of nature, warm Japanese baths, a delicious meal and a little extra sparkle waiting in your room, and you have everything you need to truly recharge together. Book our overnight package for two.

Time for two. Time to reconnect. Time for Yasuragi.

LESS IS MORE
Ever felt like relaxing has become a task in itself on your to-do list?

It isn’t about doing wellness right, it’s about leaning back into the basics. Real reset happens when you stop adding and start subtracting. Less screen time. Less input. Less rushing to the next thing.

Just listen to what is...

Turns out, ”less is more” isn’t just a design principle—it’s how your body finally learns to breathe again. Drop the effort for a while. See what happens.
