The highest hotel in Japan, located in "Murodo-daira" at an elevation of 2,450 meters above sea level. "Murodo-daira" is known as the sightseeing base of the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route, and is surrounded by 3,000-meter-high mountains and magnificent nature.

From the sunrise in the morning, to the refreshing view at noon, to the sunset with the mountains glistening divinely, to the stars shining like jewels in the sky, you can see the spectacular scenery woven by Mother Nature throughout the day. The impressive scenery, which can only be seen by staying overnight, is a splendor that will remain in your memory for a lifetime. In addition, it is a real pleasure to see the seasonal expressions such as "Yuki no Otani" where the snow wall continues for about 500m and the autumn leaves that color the entire mountain. There are also a variety of activities and events such as trekking, star-watching, and stargazing that will allow you to enjoy your trip to the mountains to the fullest.

The restaurant is also known for its delicious cuisine, which will make your trip even more enjoyable. The restaurant's buffet breakfast, as well as dinner, is prepared using a variety of seasonal ingredients from the local Toyama area. The restaurant, one of the largest on the Alpine Route, is open to both guests and the general public.

Rain gear or heavy warm clothing is recommended in case of sudden weather changes or unforeseen circumstances.

A light sweater or sweatshirt and a windbreaker or something windproof are recommended. Boots or trekking shoes are recommended. Boots can be rented free of charge at the hotel (for guests staying at the hotel), so please ask for them.
