The Shinra

A modern ryokan at the tip of the Bōsō Peninsula where every room, original building or tower addition, comes with a sea view, a balcony, and a private open-air spring-fed bath. The public onsen, perched 50 meters above the water, looks straight up Tokyo Bay. The seafood-focused teppanyaki restaurant sits inside what feels like a clearing in a forest. A Michelin Selected Hotel, and a reasonable place to spend a few nights pretending Tokyo doesn't exist.
