A place with a core that connects both the scenes of a city center shared office space and a Karuizawa resort stay ― Karuizawa Prince The Workation Core
Karuizawa is a resort that retains an abundance of the natural environment, has easy access from the city center, and is the best place to stage new styles of work and vacation (Workation). “Karuizawa Prince The Workation Core” is a workation facility in Karuizawa developed by three companies: The Seibu Group, Nomura Real Estate Development, which deploys the satellite style shared office business “H¹T,” and the East Japan Railway Company, which deploys the shared office business “STATION WORK.”
Only a 4-minute walk from Karuizawa Station and situated in the Karuizawa Prince Shopping Plaza, it’s easy to use even if it’s just for a short time waiting for a bullet train or before checking in to a hotel. There is a spacious area akin to an airport lounge and many private booths where you can concentrate on work, hold a web meeting, and so forth. We also have meeting rooms with optimized monitors for remote meetings. It is also possible to bring pets onto our terraced seating area, where you can enjoy the pleasant breeze of Karuizawa.
