Grab this Luxurious Holiday Getaway at Lake Suwa
Located on the shores of Lake Suwa in the heart of Shinshu, a region blessed with abundant natural beauty, this hot spring inn blends the comfort of an urban hotel with the refined elegance of a traditional ryokan. The property features a variety of facilities, including open-air baths fed by Kamisuwa Onsen, a signature Sake-Infused Bath, private baths, a seasonal pool (closed in winter), and a restaurant. Guests can also indulge in exquisite kaiseki cuisine that captures the seasonal flavors of Suwa, showcasing rich local ingredients and delicate craftsmanship. With a diverse selection of guest rooms and stay plans, every traveler can enjoy a truly fulfilling and relaxing holiday by the lake.

Guest Room

Breathtaking Suite Lake View

The "Panorama Room" offers a commanding view of Lake Suwa through its expansive windows, creating a sense of openness and grandeur. Accommodating up to four guests, it is ideal for families or small groups. The bathroom features a jetted bath, adding a touch of luxury to an already refined stay.

A Contemporary "Wa - Japanese Room" for a Peaceful Stay

This guest room features a counter-style window overlooking Lake Suwa, allowing guests to relax deeply into the sofa while taking in the tranquil view. The room is equipped with wine glasses, a sink, and Simmons beds, creating a comfortable setting for a leisurely stay. In summer, guests can also enjoy a splendid view of the fireworks display over the lake.

Tranquil Japanese Spaces Designed for Gentle Relaxation

Among the 155 guest rooms—one of the largest numbers in the Lake Suwa area—the basic type is this Japanese-style room. Sunlight and views create a pleasant atmosphere during the day, while at night the twinkling city lights across the lake add a touch of charm. It is a space designed for a truly relaxing and fulfilling stay.

Moderate Twin Rooms With a Touch of Refined Luxury

The Moderate Twin Room offers a panoramic view encompassing Lake Suwa, Takashima Castle, and Mt. Fuji. Measuring approximately 40m², the chic interior provides a sense of openness and calm. A jetted bath adds a soothing touch to a relaxing stay.

Spa

Open-Air Baths Embraced by the Blessings of Nature

The open-air rock bath, set high above Lake Suwa, offers a truly magnificent view. As the sun sets, the lake glows with breathtaking hues of amber and gold. The large stones, quarried from the Yatsugatake Mountains, lend a rugged charm to the bath, creating a serene setting that gently soothes both body and mind.

Two Private Flowing Hot Spring Baths for Exclusive Use

The free-flowing private baths Ringo-no-Yu (Apple Bath) and Anzu-no-Yu (Apricot Bath) offer an indulgent experience, allowing guests to soak in the pure spring waters of Kamisuwa Onsen while gazing out over Lake Suwa. Advance reservations are required (1,500 yen / 50 minutes).

The Signature Sake-Infused Bath Known for Its Skin-Nourishing Benefits

Amino acid components in sake baths are said to make the skin smooth. Components produced during the brewing process promote blood circulation and are expected to have a moisturizing effect. Since sake specifically for sake baths is used, it is safe for those who cannot tolerate alcoholic beverages and children.

Cuisine

Kaiseki Cuisine Featuring Seasonal Flavors

Authentic kaiseki cuisine highlights the finest seasonal ingredients and the changing beauty of each season. Each dish is meticulously crafted by skilled chefs, offering an exquisite dining experience to be shared with loved ones, family, or friends.

Traditional Chinese Flavors Cherished in the Suwa Region

In addition to authentic Chinese cuisine, the creative dinner course served exclusively to staying guests enjoys strong popularity among repeat visitors. Blending Chinese cuisine with Japanese and Western influences, each beautifully presented dish offers both visual delight and exceptional flavor.

A Soothing Breakfast With Views of Lake Suwa

Renovated in 2025, "KOHANNO DINING" offers a resort-like ambience, featuring wooden architecture inspired by Suwa Taisha Shrine and panoramic views of Lake Suwa. The extensive breakfast menu presents a rich selection of Japanese and Western dishes, along with local specialties and the hotel’s signature authentic Chinese cuisine.

Facility

Inspiring Lake Views and a Full Range of Facilities

Upon arrival, guests are warmly greeted by the staff in a spacious marble lobby. The inviting lounge and dining areas provide a relaxing setting to unwind while admiring the serene beauty of Lake Suwa and the gentle passage of time.
