About Overnight Stay Rates

The overnight stay rate covers a single night of 13 hours, from 8 pm to 9 am the next morning. Visitors pay ¥102,000 (tax included); the 13 hours are fixed and cannot be divided, and the stay is for one guest only. Members use 16 hours of their allowance. The Salon is for women only.

Thirteen hours

From the bow at 8 pm to farewell at 9 am, the butler keeps the door

An overnight stay does not mean using the Manor unattended at night. The butler remains in the Manor throughout, from welcoming you to seeing you off the next morning. A butler of the Queen's Butler Association, which runs Queen's Butler, attends to the door, the lights, your drinks, your rest in the bed and morning tea as one continuous duty.

The rate is fixed at 13 hours; no part of the night can be booked separately. On a day with an overnight stay, no ordinary evening slot is offered, and from 8 pm the whole Manor becomes your time alone. No key is handed over; keeping the door is the butler's work.

What to bring

Pack for two scenes: the night and the morning

As no meals are served, please bring whatever food and drink you need. If you have a great deal of luggage or fragile items, tell us at booking and the butler will arrange a place for them.

There is no dress code. If you wish to keep separate an outfit for photographs in the Manor and one for resting in the bed, the butler will guide you through the order in which to use the wardrobe. Both women and men serve as butlers here; we ask your preference at booking.

For a peaceful night, we go through these points with you at booking

ArrivalSo that we may receive you at the door at 8 pm, we ask how you will arrive and how much luggage you will bring. If you expect to be late, please let us know as soon as you can. The fixed 13 hours end at 9 am the next morning.
Food and drink for the eveningNo meals are served. Please bring what you need and tell the butler how you would like it chilled or set on the table. Anything whose temperature or container we are unsure of, we check before handling.
TheatreNetflix, Amazon Prime Video, U-NEXT, YouTube, ABEMA and Disney+ are available.
GarmentsIf you wish to keep separate what you rest in and what you wear the next morning, we ask in which order to place them in the wardrobe. Any item you would like laundered is taken into care after we confirm its fabric and handling, using the building's shared drum washer-dryer.
Morning teaThe evening before, we ask when you expect to rise and what you would like to drink. The butler does not raise the lights abruptly, and supports your morning by arranging your luggage and garments.
Rainy daysAs the stay takes place entirely within the Manor, you may book regardless of the weather. We take your umbrella and wet coat at the door so that no drops are carried into the corridor or the Bedchamber.
