Gora Kadan

Gora Kadan is situated in the mountain town of Gora and is an experience not to be missed...providing you can afford it, of course. With rooms starting from ¥50,000 per person per night, it's certainly in the deluxe category, but that's where it deserves to be. Everything about Gora Kadan screams luxury, from the private baths with majestic views to the first-class, traditional Japanese meal, taken in a separate building formerly owned by the Japanese royal family. It's some way out of Tokyo, of course, but this is the ultimate retreat. Just about the best night of relaxation your yen can buy.
