A corner of Japan beside the Mediterranean in Torremolinos

...The La Luna Blanca Hotel is the only one of its kind in all of Spain, and it offers its guests a genuine Japanese suite, which is requested by many Japanese people living in Europe who travel to the Costa del Sol on holiday
...The bathroom in the Japanese suite is the star item in the hotel, with its large shower and huge bath, and many of the other guests in the hotel are interested in simply looking at it.
...Reiko Kato tells us that the Japanese tradition demands that one showers first, sitting on a small seat called a zaisu, pouring water over oneself with a large wooden spoon.
...The garden is another element that is essentially Japanese. One part of it is designed in the Zen tradition, and this is where the Japanese go to meditate.
...The Japanese suite, the only one of its kind in Spain, costs 152 euros with breakfast. The other rooms cost 100 euros a night
