At Taisenkaku, an onsen ryokan located right beside the Chikugo River, water began to flow due to rain from the 6th of this month, and the kitchen and banquet hall on the first floor flooded to the floor.

I just closed the office on the 1st of this month after closing due to the effects of the new coronavirus, but I was forced to take a break again.

Restoration work of the banquet hall is ongoing, but otherwise cleaning and disinfection proceeded, and business resumed on the 17th day after an interval of about 10 days, and Kyoichiro Hayashi aimed at the staff who had been cleaning up.

A parent and child who visited 23 days on a day trip from Fukuoka city on the 17th said, “I came to look forward to the meal. I think the cleaning up was tough, but I am happy that it is clean.” I was talking.

Mr. Hayashi said, "I'm relieved to be able to resume somehow. Since some customers can make reservations, I would like to continue to operate with thorough measures against infectious diseases even for such people." ..

According to the Harazuru Onsen Ryokan Cooperative, 3 of the 12 inns that were members of the union were closed due to the heavy rain, but all of them have resumed business by 17th.
