New feature page: “Uguisudani Club, an Inn That Appears in a Rampo Novel”

Edogawa Rampo’s full-length detective novel Kenin Gengi features an inn called “the Tokiwa Ryokan (常盤) in Uguisudani.” Our predecessor, the Tokiwa Ryokan (written 常きわ), opened here in Negishi in 1952 — two years before that serialisation began. Both names are read Tokiwa.

We have brought together the passage Rampo wrote down, the seventy-odd years our inn has continued under changing names, and the ties between the town of Uguisudani and Rampo, in a feature page. We hope you will enjoy reading it.

[Important Notice] Service Enhancements and Price Revision

Thank you for choosing Hotel Uguisudani Club. To deliver the cleanest and most relaxing time in the Uguisudani area, from April 1, 2026 we will update our in-stay services and revise our pricing.

New hospitality from April

• Grooming & Recovery Bar: A self-care buffet to help you sleep deeply and wake refreshed. Choose freely from carefully selected items — hot eye masks, cooling foot sheets, earplugs and more — to reset the day’s fatigue and bring out your best the next morning.
• Shampoo Bar: By popular request, we have introduced a Shampoo Bar. Choose freely from popular brands to specialty labels.

Planned additions

• Expanded loan items: Hair irons and vanity mirrors will be available.
• Enhanced stay value: We are considering collaborations with an on-site café bar and a massage salon.

Accordingly, some room rates and extension fees will be revised. Together with the clean air of our all non-smoking rooms, we will strive to offer you an even more refined and comfortable time. We look forward to your continued patronage.
