The vibrant Hakuba Valley you see today is a testament to the dedication of countless contributors. Yet few have left a legacy as profound as long-time locals, Shinichi Shiojima-san, and his wife, Madame Kazuko Shiojima.<\/h4>

The story begins in 1968, when 23 year-old Shiojima-san decided to break from his family’s farming tradition, and open a lodge named La Neige, catering to young Japanese skiers. The property was located in Tsugaike, Hakuba’s premier ski destination in the 70s and 80s.<\/p>

Shiojima-san proudly reflects on the Tsugaike of that period, recalling the village even had its own disco bar. To drew the burgeoning Japanese youth to his accommodation, Shiojima-san designed a new, futuristic annex that resembled a spaceship. During the time of disco and space exploration, Shiojima-san had met his now late, Ma-dame Shiojima.<\/p>

The two would go on to build one of the most iconic resort hotels and experiences in the Hakuba Valley, combining their visions to create a destination beloved by both local visitors and those from across the globe.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

A HOTEL IN THE FOREST<\/strong><\/h4>

In the early 1980s, Shiojima-san acquired land in Wadano, where the renowned La Neige Hotel now stands. His respect for nature guided his vision.<\/p>

Before construction began, Shiojima-san personally walked the land, cataloging each tree based on size, age, and health. With this ranking system, he ensured that only necessary trees were removed, allowing the buildings to blend harmoniously into the forest.<\/p>

“Some trees in the forest are over 100 years old, so we designed and produced the hotel with the concept of a ‘hotel nestled in the forest,’ ensuring that the building would not surpass the height of these trees.”<\/span><\/h5>

“We also made use of the natural slope of the land, which resulted in several elevation changes within the building. The layout emphasizes a fusion with nature, featuring large windows and a bath with views of the surrounding forest. Unlike life in the city, which centers around artificial environments, we felt a little inconvenient for some. However, it is designed with the hope that you will sense the coexistence of nature, animals, and people.”<\/p>

The west wing of the La Neige Hotel, a Tudor-style manor house, was completed in 1983. The east wing followed in 1990.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

DESIGN IS IN THE DETAIL<\/span><\/h4>

It wasn\u2019t just nature that piqued Shojima-san\u2019s creativity as he built and designed La Neige. He drew significant inspiration from the works of renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright, even visiting the United States several times to experience Wright\u2019s architecture in person.<\/p>

Rather than offering a cookie-cutter experience, each room at La Neige is thoughtfully designed around a unique style of furniture handpicked by Shojima-san, ensuring a one-of-a-kind visit for every guest. The confluence of Western design inspiration, Shojima-san\u2019s discerning eye, and the Japanese omotenashi-style of service form the incredible character and charm La Neige has today.<\/span><\/h5>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

“The Shojimas spent time traveling and researching the finest boutique hotels in France, England, and Germany which ultimately shaped the hotel\u2019s unique concept.”<\/span><\/h5>

THE 1998 OLYMPICS AND SHOJIMA-SAN\u2019S VISION<\/span><\/h4>

Hakuba had the honor of hosting the 1998 Winter Olympics, and yet again, Shojima-san saw an opportunity. He designed a special Olympic monument to welcome the world to the region. Next was the challenge of funding this ambitious project. S<\/p>

hojima-san reached out to Hakuba business owners, local citizens, and corporations in Tokyo, including Coca-Cola, Kirin, and Epson, offering rooms at his hotel during the Olympic games in exchange for their support. His efforts paid off, he successfully raised 10 million yen, and the monument was built. To this day, the sign stands proudly at the base of Wadano Forest, a lasting symbol of his determination and love for Hakuba.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

POST-OLYMPIC CHALLENGES<\/strong><\/h4>

The lead-up to the Olympics saw a boom in domestic tourism, particularly in skiing. However, once the games concluded, that boom quickly fizzled. By 2004, the slopes were near-empty, and Hakuba\u2019s economy was in dire straits.<\/p>

FOUNDING HAKUBA TOURISM<\/strong><\/h4>

In the face of these challenges, Shojima-san, ever the entrepreneur, joined forces with local hotel and ryokan owners to establish Hakuba Tourism\u2014the first organized effort to promote Hakuba beyond Japan\u2019s borders.<\/p>

THE POWER OF THE HAKUBA VALLEY<\/strong><\/h4>

Rather than focus on a single resort, Shojima-san saw the power of the Hakuba community and harnessing the collective strength of the entire region. He coined the term \u201cthe Hakuba Valley\u201d and began preparing marketing materials in English around his new destination. The team took to the skies, embarking on their first international trip to Australia to promote Hakuba to a global audience.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

BEFORE THE INTERNATIONAL MARKET ARRIVED<\/span><\/h4>

Despite their hard work and dedication, it took another 15 years before the inbound market developed into the behemoth we see today. During this time, Madame Shojima shifted her focus to promoting the green season. A central element of her strategy was hosting events, including musical performances, parties with high-profile guests, and cultural experiences like tea ceremonies. Weddings, in particular, became a major business. La Neige grew into one of the region\u2019s most popular wedding destinations, with Madame Shojima planning bespoke ceremonies on the Hakuba mountains, by its riversides, and in local chapels, but always culminating with a reception at La Neige.<\/p>

Personally overseeing hundreds of weddings and events, Madame Shojima earned the loyalty and trust of guests who returned to La Neige year after year, drawn to her warmth and flawless execution.<\/span><\/h5>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

THE FUTURE OF HAKUBA RESORT HOTEL LA NEIGE<\/b><\/h4>

Earlier this year, the Shojimas made the thoughtful decision to pass their cherished hotel into new hands, entrusting its future to new owners who have partnered with Hakuba Hospitality Group (HHG) for its management.\u00a0<\/p>

Both the new owners and HHG envision an exciting path forward\u2014one that honors the hotel\u2019s rich history while introducing thoughtful updates and enhancements. The Shojimas will continue as esteemed advisors, supporting the next chapter to ensure that every improvement balances modernization with the warmth and excellence that guests have come to expect.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

His respect for nature guided his vision.<\\\/p><p class=\\\"whitespace-normal break-words\\\">Before construction began, Shiojima-san personally walked the land, cataloging each tree based on size, age, and health. With this ranking system, he ensured that only necessary trees were removed, allowing the buildings to blend harmoniously into the forest.<\\\/p><h5><span style=\\\"color: #cfba9f;\\\">\\\"Some trees in the forest are over 100 years old, so we designed and produced the hotel with the concept of a 'hotel nestled in the forest,' ensuring that the building would not surpass the height of these trees.\\\"<\\\/span><\\\/h5><p class=\\\"whitespace-normal break-words\\\">\\\"We also made use of the natural slope of the land, which resulted in several elevation changes within the building. The layout emphasizes a fusion with nature, featuring large windows and a bath with views of the surrounding forest.
