Sennen-no Yu Koman is a traditional Japanese inn (ryokan) in Kinosaki, Hyōgo Onsen, Toyooka city, Hyōgo prefecture, Japan.
Koman was founded in 717. This makes it a long-established business (shinise), the second oldest hotel in Japan and one of the oldest companies in the world.
The ryokan was founded by Gonnokami Hiuke and his descendants founded local bath houses in Kinosaki Onsen.[1] The establishment was passed on for over 46 generations.
