Located in the Northern Island of Hokkaido, the 2.1-hectare resort offers some of the best powdery snow in the world.
Kiroro Peak is the first of two phases of Club Med Kiroro, a takeover of two existing hotels to create one integrated snow resort with two distinctive buildings, located just a 3-minute buggy ride or a short gondola ride apart. Club Med Kiroro Peak welcomes guests from 12 years old and above while Club Med Kiroro Grand, scheduled to open in 2023 with 266 rooms, will welcome families of all ages with kids facilities from 2 years old.
With the opening of both buildings, Club Med Kiroro will offer close to 400 guest rooms with the support of over 450 G.Os (Gentil Organisateurs) and G.Es (Gentil Employees) during the peak winter season.

Designed by hospitality interior specialists, Studio HBA, Club Med Kiroro seamlessly blending tradition and modernity with contemporary touches and upscaled comfort.

As guests make their way through the resort, they can expect the visual spectacle to continue with featured works from Japanese and international artists, sparking creativity and spontaneity. The well-designed spaces flow organically into one another through the avant-garde design of Japanese clean lines combined with bold, contemporary Western elements, providing guests with high-end aesthetics and comfort to elevate the vacation experience in an informal yet chic ambience, all while complementing the holistic Club Med experience.
The 126-room resort boasts three accommodation categories – 113 Superior and 11 Deluxe Rooms, and two Suites, customisable to suit guests’ comfort preference.
Every room at Kiroro Peak is warmly furnished with an inviting palette of alpine timbre combined with touches of comfortable bespoke Japanese patterned fabric collage and Western tartan patterns. Guests will be invited to dream at Kiroro Peak as reflected in the Japanese stylised wide-brush calligraphy painting above the headboard in each room.
