The Karuizawa Prince Hotel East in Nagano Prefecture reopened on July 12 after the renovation of all 70 rooms, the lobby and its two restaurants.

The hotel is part of The Prince Grand Resort Karuizawa that is familiar to a wide range of customers as a comprehensive resort that spreads on the south side of Karuizawa Station. Surrounded by abundant green, it is comprised of a hotel, golf course, ski resort, wedding ceremony facilities and a shopping mall. Following the renovations, the Hotel East building has become a "lifestyle zone" that fits each customer's lifestyle where guests can take advantage of the two restaurants. The All-Day Dining Karuizawa Grill offers private rooms for groups (¥10,000), with dishes priced from ¥750, while Teppanyaki Shabu-shabu Sukiyaki Breeze has menu items from ¥3,500.

The plan is priced from ¥36,000 per person for a room for two with breakfast and a 60-minute spa treatment. Additionally, morning yoga at the top of the Karuizawa Prince Hotel ski resort is available, allowing guests to admire the natural mountain landscape of Karuizawa.
