At Arumu no Sato, the hens are raised in open, sunlit coops that allow them to move freely and live comfortably. The barns are protected by nets to keep out wild birds and animals, reducing unnecessary stress. Each coop also includes a dedicated nesting area, ensuring the hens can lay their eggs in peace. The floors are covered with sawdust enriched with beneficial microorganisms sourced from Kagoshima, creating a clean, well-managed environment where the hens can thrive naturally.

At Novotel Nara, we honor this timeless tradition, serving it with elegance and care.
