| History of Kishotei |
| Kishotei stands on a very special site. In the olden days, people would tie flags to pine trees to signal out to ships coming in and going out of the port. A tearoom called “Kishotei” was later built to remember this special location. Today, the name continues to live on that very site within our hotel. We hope to preserve this time-honored name for years to come. |
