Noël comes from the Latin word meaning "birth." We created this space hoping it would be a place where people can discover a new sense of self by escaping the hustle and bustle of city life. We continue to pursue what we longed for as children even as adults, and we want to share this with those who appreciate its value. We would be delighted if visitors could cherish the facilities, environment, and space as if it were their own secret hideaway or personal retreat.

Nestled in North Karuizawa's forest beside a pristine stream, "Noel Seiryu#2" offers a nature retreat. The open-plan first floor with large windows leads to a deck perfect for forest BBQs.
