Note!!! - The main picture of the hotel (which appears to be of the property) on Expedia... is in fact about half a kilometre away and is of a public bath - not the property!!! Extremely misleading and needs to be removed.
The bedrooms have no windows.
The room was cleaned poorly.
The buffet breakfast was poor and food not kept hot. Only one juice (hope you like carrots). Coffee is watered down.
Coffee from coffee bar or breakfast area not allowed to be taken to your room. Extremely frustrating.
Also... could not use the restaurant there unless booked prior to the stay.
Shuttle bus to pick us up was 15 mins late (despite the hotel being a minute or two drive away). Also.. would only drop upu back at the bus atop at two set times on a morning. Any other time and you had to walk yourselves.
Onsens were small for the amount of guests and frequently full.
The outside onsen was only for females.
The private onsen was $20 for an hour to use. Not sure why.
Not a bad stay... but you aren't getting what is advertised.

We had a room with half board and enjoyed the 24 hr Natural hot spring within the hotel. Free shuttle to the bus station after check out was helpful as it snowed the night before

I love cold weather and snow, so that part of Northern Honshu was perfect for me. I also have family in the area to drive me to Zao, which is a lot easier than taking the bus! This hotel is clearly on the older side, but that really didn't detract from the whole experience, which was positive. The bath was relaxing and though it wasn't large, I never felt over crowded. The beds were comfortable~ sort of an amalgam of futon and boxspring. Though I wish they were on the tatami, it was nice that they were by the windows. I am pretty sure I've been in those particular onsen baths before, so I am wondering if this hotel has existed in the past under different ownership with a different name.
Super good stay with dinner and breakfast. 24hr open onsen too.

1) Lack of socket in the room. I need to unplug the tv so that the socket can be used for charging my phone. Or i have to use the socket located near the toilet side which is so inconvenient.
2) The outdoor hotspring is so small.
3) We have called concierge for getting the shuttle bus service from ropeway station to hotel but they said the service is only available between bus terminal and hotel. So we have to walk from ropeway station to bus terminal after we get off from the ropeway after visiting the tree monsters at peak.
