A particle coating method includes placing magnetic particles in a vessel, fixing the magnetic particles by a magnetic force caused by a magnetic field generated in the vessel, and forming a coating film on surfaces of the magnetic particles by an atomic layer deposition method. Further, the method preferably includes forming a coating film on surfaces of the magnetic particles by an atomic layer deposition method in a state where the magnetic particles are fixed by the magnetic force in a first direction, thereby obtaining coated magnetic particles, and forming a coating film on surfaces of the coated magnetic particles in a state where the coated magnetic particles are fixed by the magnetic force in a second direction different from the first direction.
