Naoshima offers a curated selection of hotels that are deeply intertwined with the island's artistic identity, providing unique, design-focused, and often luxurious accommodations.

Designed by renowned architect Tadao Ando, Benesse House is a fusion of a museum and a hotel, allowing guests to immerse themselves in art and nature. It features minimalist rooms across four buildings—Museum, Oval, Park, and Beach—with many offering scenic views of the Seto Inland Sea. Guests staying in the Museum and Oval sections have the distinct privilege of exploring the museum's art collection after hours.

Opened in 2022, Naoshima Ryokan Roka offers a contemporary interpretation of a traditional Japanese inn. It emphasizes minimalist design, features its own collection of contemporary art, and provides spacious suites, many with private semi-outdoor onsens. The atmosphere is one of quiet luxury, with gourmet dining and a focus on tranquility and reflection, appealing to art and design enthusiasts.
