Myoko Pension + Restaurant

Welcome to the Myoko Resort Hotel, a rare alpine property set within the renowned Myoko Kogen resort area. Positioned on a generous 1,757 sqm site inside Joshinetsu Kogen National Park, this three-story building offers immediate access to year-round tourism while presenting exceptional flexibility for future use — whether as a hospitality business or an extraordinary private residence.

The property comprises approximately 777 sqm of total floor area across three levels (272.16 sqm first floor, 284.40 sqm second floor, and 220.95 sqm third floor), constructed in durable steel-frame construction suited to mountain environments. Currently configured with 15 guest rooms and shared facilities, the layout lends itself naturally to continued operation as a pension, ryokan, or boutique lodge. At the same time, the scale and structure create a rare opportunity to reimagine the building as a spacious multi-generational home, private retreat, or luxury alpine residence.

Large windows bring in abundant natural light and frame views toward Mt. Myoko, while the flat land allows easy access and flexible outdoor use — ideal for gardens, terraces, or expanded residential amenities. The property includes parking for approximately 10 vehicles, with capacity for large bus access, supporting both hospitality operations and private estate functionality. Reliable winter road access and established snow removal systems ensure year-round usability.

Located just minutes from Akakura Resort Ski Area, nearby golf courses, and the historic onsen district, the property balances tranquility with convenience. Essential services, medical facilities, and local shopping areas are reachable within a short drive, making full-time living as practical as seasonal resort use.

Whether preserved as a welcoming pension or ryokan, repositioned as a boutique hospitality concept, or transformed into one of Myoko’s most distinctive private residences, the Higashi Akakura Resort Hotel offers scale, location, and flexibility rarely found in Japan’s alpine markets.
