A premium mountain resort where you can enjoy nature and outdoor activities year-round—and unwind in the Onsen.

A resort nestled in a setting surrounded by nature through all four seasons. In the lush green months, you can enjoy a wide range of activities, and in winter, take advantage of one of Japan’s snowiest areas and its exceptional powder for skiing and snowboarding. Inside, the refined design and calm atmosphere invite you to relax and unwind.

  • It was a very clean and relaxing Hotel.The service was courteous, and it’s a Hotel I’d like to stay at again. There are plenty of activities for children, so everyone from kids to adults will be very satisfied.Since there is a lot to explain at check-in, it’s understandable that it takes time for each guest, but there were only two staff members assisting, so a long line formed. I think it would be even better if this could be improved.

  • I stayed here as a child more than 20 years ago, back in the SONY days. This time I visited with my own children, and it was just as kid-friendly as I remembered—if anything, even better with the wide range of activities. It was the perfect Accommodation for families with children.By chance, it brought back memories through a detective feature on a Wednesday TV show, and I’m truly glad to have been reminded of those times.I would love to stay again.Thank you very much for everything!
