The Enryôkan was a Western-style building on the grounds of the [[Hama Detached Palace]] (''Hama rikyû'') built originally by the [[Tokugawa shogunate]] as a naval academy,<ref>Richard Chang, “General Grant’s 1879 Visit to Japan,” ''Monumenta Nipponica'' 24:4 (1969), 376.</ref> and later modified to serve as lodgings for foreign dignitaries. It served as the chief site for housing foreign dignitaries from [[1869]] until [[1883]], housing such esteemed individuals as [[Prince Alfred]] (second son of [[Queen Victoria]] & first British royal to visit Japan), [[Ulysses S. Grant]] (first [former] foreign head of state to visit Japan), and King [[Kalakaua]] of Hawaii (first reigning monarch to visit Japan).

It is unclear precisely what these lodgings were like, but Grant describes it as "spacious, beautifully decorated, and built for summer purposes."<ref>William M. Ferraro, “Engagement Rather than Escape: Ulysses S. Grant’s World Tour, 1877-1879,” in Edward O. Frantz (ed.), ''A Companion to the Reconstruction Presidents 1865-1881'', John Wiley & Sons (2014), 377.</ref>

In 1883, the [[Rokumeikan]] was completed, and took over the Enryôkan's function; much of the Western-style furniture and furnishings from the Enryôkan were moved to the Rokumeikan at that time.<ref>Dallas Finn, "Reassessing the Rokumeikan," in Ellen Conan (ed.), ''Challenging Past and Present: The Metamorphosis of Nineteenth-Century Japanese Art'', University of Hawaii Press (2006), 233.</ref>
