The Sadou Inn is a ryokan and future artists residency, situated in the quaint town of Uno. We have curated a space that combines the poetry of the Japanese aesthetic with western comforts to soothe and inspire the weary traveler. At the Sadou Inn we nurture the concept of returning to a time of slow travel, meeting other travelers and locals, and making friends and new connections on your journey. Relax privately in you spacious, Japanese-style guest suite, or socialize in the sunny dining room and comfortable living room with other guests. Hosts are always onsite to serve breakfast, help you plan your itinerary, and make sure you have everything you need during your stay. Staff checks you in and shows you around the accommodation. Bathrooms are shared and the kitchen is available for your light use. We also have a few bicycles you can borrow to explore the town.

We are artists and filmmakers who found great inspiration on the art islands of the Seto Inland Sea. We developed this guesthouse and future artist residency as a way to meet other creative people and share the beauty of this unique area.

Right on the cusp of Uno & Tama, we are a great location to explore the town from. Apart from the art islands, we also recommend day trips to Okayama, Takamatsu and Kurashiki!
