Hotel is good, a little walk up to the Main Street but it welcoming, staff are really helpful and it has a lovely on site onsen.

There are kerosene heaters in the rooms which produce fumes that were overwhelming at times. If they addressed that then we would be very happy to stay again

The breakfasts were just ideal for a skiing holiday, and the traditional breakfast was delicious. The walk to the snow was short. The staff were very friendly.

it was a very warm rustic cabin and they leave little snacks for when you get back in the afternoon

it was quite far from the main town and the road leading to the property was not ploughed/shoveled making it very difficult to walk/drive in and out of the property.

This hotel is exceptional value and very clean. It is family owned so you get an authentic Japanese feel. The onsen is “real” separate male and female not just a hot tap water onsen, it did feel therapeutic. The beds are comfy and made up everyday. Loved the electric blankets. Brekky was coffee or tea, eggs , toast and fruit and inexpensive so a great start to the ski day. In the evening we sat in the lounge area as a group and bought drinks at the bar and also sat with our own drinks. We also spent an afternoon using their shovels and snow sleds playing out the front building ramps and having snow fights. The bathrooms look brand new, very clean. If you are on a budget and want to go to Japan this place is awesome.

The heaters in the rooms are kerosene, did not bother me at all, I loved the sound of it turning on and off but my hubby did think it had a slight smell. Also showers are set times in the morning or afternoon, but again this did not effect is as we went skiing and by the time we were back the hot water was on. I timed it and it is a 5 minute walk to the main town street, which isn’t a big deal but carrying equipment is tiring. We quickly worked out we could leave our boards at our ski hire place (Myoko snow sports) so again, this wasn’t a problem for the price we paid for the accommodation we really can’t complain.
