About Tsuruga Group Shimamatsu
Hokkaido is a special destination in Japan, not just for its historical significance, but also for its breathtaking natural landscape. Inspired by this island, Tsuruga Group has developed a chain of high-quality hotels in the heart of some of the most stunning locations of Hokkaido, from lush forests to crystal-clear lakes.
Tsuruga Group’s deep appreciation for Hokkaido is clear from their hotels. The company has 13 hotels and one dining establishment, all of them showcasing the best that the region has to offer. Throughout their properties, the company pays tribute to the beautiful island, from the intricate wood carvings by master Ainu artisans in the hotel lobbies to room interiors featuring the traditional patterns of Uilta and Ainu cultures. Food served from the kitchens are cooked using fresh local ingredients. Even the activities offered by the Tsuruga hotels, such as bird watching, encourage the guests to engage with the environment and get to know the island better.
