Nestled in a tranquil 60,000-square-meter forest at the foot of Mount Asama, The Hiramatsu Karuizawa Miyota offers a serene escape in Miyota-machi, Nagano Prefecture. This luxury grande auberge, while not in Tokyo as initially thought, provides an unparalleled culinary and hospitality experience, embodying the concept of “One Stay, One Full Course” where every moment contributes to a memorable gastronomic journey.
The property features two exceptional restaurants, a French restaurant named Le Grand Lys and an Italian restaurant called La Lumière Claire, both committed to showcasing the rich bounty of Nagano's Shinshu region through carefully selected seasonal ingredients. Guests can indulge in exquisitely prepared dishes, with French cuisine led by Bocuse-trained Chef Akio Yanagihara and Italian delights crafted by Chef Yusuke Maeda, who specializes in pasta. Beyond the dining rooms, the experience extends to private villas with hot spring baths, a Takibi Lounge, Library Café, and Wellness Salon, all designed to foster communion with nature and holistic relaxation for the discerning luxury traveler.
