getting here
If you are planning on using the train, please keep in mind that the train routes presented here are only suggestions and depending on your time of arrival, there usually is more than one way to get here. Some train lines like the JR Yamanote can get very full depending on the time of day and should be avoided.
Also when planning to get here by train, please ensure that your destination train station is Iiyama Station and not Nozawa Station, which is over 600km away from us.
If you book your room through this website, we will pick you up at Iiyama Station (min. 4 nights booking).
