Hōshi Ryokan

Hōshi (法師) is a ryokan (Japanese traditional inn) founded in 718 in Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan.

It has been owned and managed by the Hoshi family for forty-six generations[1] and was thought to be the oldest operating hotel in the world until Nishiyama Onsen Keiunkan, founded in 705, claimed that title.

However, it remains the record-holder of the world's oldest, continually-run family business.
