This beautiful hotel might not look like much from the outside, but on the inside, tasteful design and clever construction has been put to use to create warm, inviting and comfortable accommodation for either large or small groups. There are a variety of rooms available, meaning you'll definitely find something perfect for your needs, with rooms ranging from western to Japanese style and most fitting into the comfortable middle ground.

Each room is fitted with large windows and, as such, is filled with plenty of natural light and privy to lovely views of the surrounding landscapes. Natural materials have also been used throughout the spaces to both enhance the traditional Japanese atmosphere and foster a calm connection to the natural landscape surrounding the hotel. Of course, modern western amenities are included, too - all rooms feature tea/coffee making facilities, entertainment and ensuite bathrooms.

The hotel itself is home to one of if not the best onsens in the area. There are a variety of indoor and outdoor baths as well as private baths for couples and families which, when paired with a visit to the sauna or spa, make for a great relaxing afternoon. The hotel is also home to banquet halls, meaning hosting events or a special occasion here is easy, as well as a large restaurant and two bars.

Situated in the middle of town and right across from the ski slopes, Hotel Lucent's location couldn't get much better. Ideal for ski enthusiasts - especially when paired with the in-house ski rental shop and equipment storage - and for those simply looking to explore the town and all it has to offer. There are an in-house convenience and souvenir store, but the town's shops are only a short trip away if you ever find yourself needing more. With this many lovely facilities and recently renovated rooms, Hotel Lucent is sure to please any guest - whether you're for a relaxing getaway or a fun filled and action packed holiday on the slopes, you're in the right spot!

Onsen & Spa

In-house Onsen "Hagakure no yu"

The in-house hot springs at Lucent are claimed to be one the best in the area, and it’s a hard claim to argue with. The baths are set in a rustic wooden and stone building as well as outdoors underneath wooden pergolas and, being natural hot springs, have a wide range of healing benefits. There are a variety of different onsens, too, which is uncommon – there are both milky sulphur waters and clear ones high in iron. If you’re looking for the perfect place to unwind after a long day or a plane ride, this might be the ideal spot for you. Pair the onsens with the complimentary sauna and you’ve got a whole day planned. If you’re feeling a little romantic or simply want some private time with your friends or family, you can also reserve either an indoor or outdoor private bath house.

Shopping

Convenience Store
