Overview
With hundreds of year of experience in the business, the Akakura Hotel and its Annex are experts in providing high quality accommodation.
It's probably the only hotel you'll find a humanoid robot, capable of speaking Japanese and English and having a conversation with guests. Although, if that novelty isn't enough to sell you, the hotel's facilities might be.
The rooms of the hotel are simple and without frills, but exceptionally well kept and clean, offering a great mix of Japanese and western décor and furnishing.

Located just a five minute walk from the ski lifts, Akakura offers simple yet comfortable and cosy accommodation with a huge range of entertainment and activity options.
