Mountain View Hotels & Ryokan in Japan
Over 70% of Japan is mountainous, creating a landscape of extraordinary vertical drama. From the snow-capped Northern Alps to the volcanic peaks of Kyushu, mountain-view stays place you at the intersection of wilderness and refined Japanese hospitality.
85 properties
The Japanese relationship with mountains runs deep — they are sacred spaces, sources of pure water, and the backdrop to some of the world's most celebrated hot spring towns. A mountain-view stay might mean waking to the sunrise over a 3,000-meter ridge line, soaking in an outdoor onsen as clouds drift through the valley below, or dining on highland cuisine while autumn foliage blazes across the slopes.
These properties have been selected for their commanding mountain perspectives, whether that's an intimate ryokan tucked into the Japanese Alps or a design hotel with panoramic views of volcanic calderas.
