Located right in front of Myoko-Kogen Suginohara Ski Resort, the quaint property Soratobu Usagi offers Japanese-style accommodations, free Wi-Fi in public areas and a shared lounge. Guests get a discount for the ski-lift and ski gear rentals.

We had an AMAZING time at Soratobu Usagi! The location is awesome. We truly enjoyed the ski-in/ski-out location. We did a bit of research and were able to reach it by train and bus from Nozawa Onsen. The team made everything super easy for us from snowboard rentals to lift tickets. The onsen in the basement is so relaxing and a real highlight. Everything was very clean and we felt very comfortable and cozy. We speak zero Japanese but they were very willing to help us with everything. We ate most our meals there and everything was SO good! We hit some powder days which was a nice bonus as well. We would definitely stay here again and recommend you to book it now!

The air-conditioned accommodation is 34 km from Zenkoji Temple, and guests can benefit from private parking available on site and free WiFi. The guest house has family rooms.

This is an amazing guesthouse, I highly recommend you to have your breakfast and dinner booked at the lodge, it's delicious and made with love (with good quantity!). You really feel like home and the hosts/owners are helpful, kind and lovely with everyone. I had the best sleep in months there ! Also, they always worries about our comfort and well being, really want to visit them every time I come back to Japan now. Extra : I love pets and there's a young cat at the house, as 2 cute dogs, so that was a perfect place for me !
