According to one embodiment, an information recording medium has a plurality of recording layers, and records and reproduces information by using a semiconductor layer of 450 nm or less. When reproducing information, letting x be the frequency of repetitive recording of a shortest mark length and shortest space length of the information, the ratio of the value of a highest level to the value of a level at x/190 of a sum signal detected within the frequency range of x/3240 to x/190 is lower than 32 dB, or the ratio of the average value of the amplitudes of signals of repetitive recording of the shortest mark length and shortest space length to the value of the highest level within the frequency range of x/3240 to x/190 is higher than 10 dB.
