Hoshinoya Karuizawa
A peaceful, nature retreat for guests looking to escape the hot Tokyo summers. The property is reminiscent of a resort village on the banks of small lake, populated with ducks and wildlife. It feels like the pleasant staff are the villagers, and the guests are friends coming to visit.
