WHY STAY WITH US?
Nozawa Peaks blends western comfort with a genuine Japanese feel — the kind of guesthouse where you can enjoy Japanese culture, food, and hot springs without giving up the comforts you're used to. Everything in the village, from ski rental to restaurants, sits within easy walking distance along a flat, heated street that winds through the snowy heart of Nozawa Onsen.
We want this to be the right trip for you. Take a look and see if it feels like your kind of place:
