Prince Hotels, the outstanding example for hotel chains in Japan, has created a network of 43 hotels, 28 golf courses, and 9 ski resorts throughout Japan. A stay with Prince Hotels allows you to enjoy natural beauties throughout all the seasons of the year as well as traditional Japanese cultural experiences. The four seasons are clearly delineated in Japan, and there are seasonal ingredients for each that allow for unique dining experiences. Japanese cuisine was added in December of 2013 as an Intangible Cultural Asset. This honor refers not to the specific dishes within the cuisine, but to the unique Japanese culinary culture that expresses a natural and seasonal harmony. Prince Hotels provides cuisine that always takes advantage of local, seasonal ingredients.
