Description

Tamo is a cool concrete chalet spread over three floors, offering an inviting fusion of Japanese design and Western influences. The address is one of the best in Hirafu, just a moment’s jaunt from the main dining strip as well as the lifts. Even closer to home, one of the standout features here is a Japanese ofuro-style bath in fresh, forest-fresh hinoki wood. A luxuriant hinoki bath after a day spent out on the slopes? This is the life.
