Residence Yasushi is operated by Nozawa Hospitality, the largest hotel operator in Nozawaonsen. Throughout your stay, you will have access to their concierge services. We aim to offer you a wonderful Japanese experience, at the right price, for your winter holiday. Nozawa Onsen is unique in Japan, and one of the most special places we know anywhere. Our vision is to share this, carefully, with guests who understand our passion. We are humbled to be part of this thriving, strong, active mountain community. We respect its history and admire its sense of carefully directed progress. We are excited to show visitors the integrated blend of mountains, culture, food, water, and cooperation that is Nozawa Onsen’s heritage. We will strive to invest in tourism that contributes to the village’s well-being and becomes an integral part of it. We expect that while the village may change its visitors, the visitors will not change the village.

We sought out collaboration in Japan, but also more broadly in Asia, to bring this vision to life. Today, Residence Yasushi exudes a timeless elegance, every room a contemporary interpretation of the composed, pared down hospitality tradition.
