The Manpei Hotel which has been catering to foreign tourists for well over a hundred years is also a place which has also been well regarded by Japanese who know of its history. Part of the hotel has even been designated as a National Heritage of Modern Industrialization. The hotel is the embodiment of the old Karuizawa with its main dining hall and stylish bar reminding guests of the atmosphere of the social watering holes of Japan of the past, and comfortable guest rooms which bring together Japan and the West.
