About
Kurotake welcomes guests to experience the therapeutic traditions of Japanese hot spring culture in Hirugami Onsen, located in Nagano's Achi Village, which is renowned for having 'the most beautiful starry sky in Japan.' The ryokan's 17 guest rooms, including nine with private open-air baths, blend traditional Japanese aesthetics with modern Western elements, creating atmospheric accommodations with Taisho-era romantic charm that transport visitors to a more elegant time. Exceptional dining experiences feature seasonal specialties served in a distinctive half-buffet style complemented by meticulously prepared course dishes, while thoughtful amenities including complimentary refreshments in the lounge allow guests to relax while gazing at the illuminated pond and torches that create a magical evening atmosphere in this riverside retreat.
