Creating new value while cherishing the old. "HOTEL&SAUNA WAYPOINT SHINANO-MYOKO" was born from this idea. Located on the shores of Lake Nojiri in Shinano-machi, Nagano Prefecture, this facility is a carefully renovated existing building, over 40 years old, that was once a beloved boutique hotel. It draws inspiration from the sustainable spirit and DIY culture rooted in Portland and Seattle, USA. Rather than demolishing it due to its age, it was reconstructed into a stay space that suits modern lifestyles while inheriting the memories of this land. It aims to be a hub that gently connects with local people and culture and invites new sensibilities.

WAYPOINT harmonizes with the local community and transmits new culture. We await you with a sustainable and special experience in Shinano-machi.
