“Staff was friendly great ski resort rooms a little small but everything was good”
“It was very pleasant experience! Thank you very much!”
“The food and Onsen were excellent. The evening meal was one of the best I’ve ever had.”
“The breakfast was buffet style, and it was really good.
They have a free shuttle service for the snow monkey park. I went to the park the last day of my stay, and they came to pick me up at the park at 11:00, which is after the check-out time which is 10:00, and they even drove me to the train station afterwards. I could leave my baggage in the lobby while staying at the park.
The onsen at the hotel is really nice with both an indoor and an outdoor bath. The onsen was open for use from 13:00 to 09:00 the next day as I can remember.
The staff was really nice and helpful.”
“The views from the room were amazing.
Complimentary ride to the monkey park and to the train station.
The futons were surprisingly comfortable.
Onsens were great, although a very odd experience for us prudish British folk.
It was great to have a traditional experience, wearing a kimono and a traditional dinner.”
