Walking into the hotel honestly felt like stepping into a scene from a European movie. The view from the room is just forest—so soothing.

Gate City Ohsaki
This is a large complex linked directly to the southern ticket gate of JR Osaki Station. It features a zone of restaurants and shops spread between the basement level and the third floor, enveloped by the East Tower and the West Tower. The structure from the basement to the third floor is designed with an atrium, and events such as concerts frequently take place in the square.
Not many people around, so it’s really comfortable to walk.
Compared with Shinjuku or Shibuya, it’s much quieter here and you don’t get squeezed by crowds.
Direct access from Osaki Station makes transfers smooth, and you don’t get wet even when it rains. -

Okutama Onsen Moeginoyu
Located about a 10-minute walk from Okutama Station, this day-trip hot spring is an ideal spot to relax after engaging in tourism activities or hiking in Okutama. The facility is popular for its location convenient for visitors to Okutama, and its open-air bath offers a scenic view of the Okutama mountains.
The open-air bath faces the mountains, and the air is so fresh it feels like it's cleaning your lungs.

Hamanako Pleasure Cruise
The Hamanako Pleasure Cruise is a popular way to enjoy the ever-changing seasonal scenery of Lake Hamana, known for its calm winds and gentle waves throughout the year. Regular cruises depart daily from two boarding points with no prior reservation required.
Forget what the Japanese guide says—the real highlight is feeding the seagulls!
