The Ridge is Hakuba’s new luxury hotel and the latest and greatest addition to the growing Hakuba resort scene. Located in the heart of Happo next to the Hakuba Tokyu Hotel, The Ridge was originally built for VIPs, including members of the Imperial Family, who could enjoy watching the Nagano Olympics from the breathtaking Penthouse Suite. It reopens in July, just in time for people to flee the Tokyo heat and relax in the Japanese Alps. The contemporary designed one-to-four-room apartments feature fully equipped kitchens, WiFi, flat-screen TVs, DVD players, iPod docking station and more. Hotel facilities include a kids’ room with Wii and XBox, lounges, restaurant and bar. Tel: (03) 3584-5067 Web: www.eastedgepartners.com]]> Tue, 29 Jun 2010 03:08:27 +0000 http://www.outdoorjapan.com/other_stuff/news_rss/57
