A long-established Resort Hotel in Karuizawa that you would want to visit as if returning to a villa.

For over a century, the historic Karuizawa area has been celebrated as an international resort destination, exuding elegance and charm. The expansive gardens surrounding Hotel Kajima no Mori still vividly preserve this timeless beauty. Delicate blooming flowers, cheerful chirping birds, and adorable families of squirrels... The abundant nature here invites visitors into a world of serene relaxation.

  • This was my first time staying here.The quiet, relaxing atmosphere, pleasant service, and lush green surroundings...It was a very comfortable Hotel.I stayed after attending my daughter’s wedding, and I was able to unwind and relax.I didn’t have much time for sightseeing this time, so next time I’d like to stay here longer and enjoy sightseeing as well.Thank you very much.

  • I have stayed here several times. Every visit, I’m impressed by the warm service, the simple and spotless Room, and the soothing greenery—my satisfaction is always extremely high at this Hotel. While service standards at Hotels across Japan have been declining due to staff shortages, this Hotel continues to uphold the tradition of classic hospitality and could serve as a model for Hotel professionals nationwide. I would love to visit again next summer.
