Madarao Acorn Village is 600 metres from the lodge, while Togari Onsen Ski Resort is 12 km from the property. The nearest airport is Matsumoto, 83 km from Chill Madarao, and the property offers a free shuttle service.

The locaton was right next to lift and the ski rental was in-house. Ski passes were purchased on our behalf and we were also picked up from the station. Travelling as a family was made to feel really easy. Absolutely delicious breakfast. We also had two evening meals during our stay and the food was excellent. The bar, where we met other guests for drinks and card games, was welcoming. We hope to return in the future.

Raicho Lodge Madarao is situated in Madarao. Featuring free WiFi throughout the property, the property is located a 3-minute walk from Madarao Kogen Ski Resort. Offering ski storage space and ski pass sales point, the warmly decorated wooden accommodation features mountain views from all rooms.

Jono and Catherine are very welcoming and we had a wonderful stay. We had a room with a private shower and everything was clean and worked perfectly. The Raicho lodge is well located (5mn to slopes, flat), very neat and well maintained. Jono is very attentive to his guests needs and make sure the place is always welcoming. Breakfast is simple but generous (bread, cereals, etc). We know where to go when we go back to Madarao!

Set in Iiyama, 21 km from Ryuoo Ski Park and 31 km from Jigokudani Monkey Park, White Lodge Fukujuso offers mountain views and free WiFi.

A ski pass sales point, ski-to-door access and ski storage space are all offered at the lodge, and guests can go skiing in the surroundings.

Great little lodge with lots of charm. Clean, comfortable, and great location right at the base of the ski hill. If you want a smaller ski hill with the same snow as Nozawa, Togari is a good spot. Little onsen in the basement was nice too. We felt it was really good value here for the price. Gábor, the guy running it, was very friendly, and went above and beyond to help us find extra ski gear when we showed up lacking. Really saved my day on the hill!

Nozawa Onsen Ski Museum is an 8-minute drive away, while the Nozawa Onsen Ski Resort is a quick 3-minute drive away. Hokuryu Lake can be driven to within a 13-minute drive from the lodge.

The staff is so friendly and helpful, especially So. He helped us with any questions we have. I also love the free shuttle service from hotel to Chuo terminal, it really save so much hassle

The location was ideal as it was just a minute away from both rentals and the gondola. The beds were comfortable and the breakfast was delicious every morning. The staff was also very friendly and accommodating any time we needed anything. We will return there when we visit Nozawa Onsen next time.

    Perfect ski lodge for our large family. The owners were very hospitable and quick to respond to our questions and needs. We took ski and snowboard lessons with Sam, Taki, and Kotone at Nozawa and Togari, and as it turns out Taki’s wife is a world class baker who cooked up the best breakfast buns this side of the Pacific. Thank you for making our family trip extra memorable!

    Ski in, ski out. One of the closest lodges to the lift. Some of the best food in Madarao. We noticed some groups from other hotels dinning there. Friendly service.

    The Japanese breakfast is amazing. TOP friendly and helpfulness. The bed is comfortable, bedding is warm. The building is well-insulated. Open fire place in the common area, with leather sofas. A great place to relax. Very close to the ski ticketing and slope. You can ski back to the ski lodge. The ski slope is across the street.

    Spacious rooms, between 3 mountains that are drivable distances (Madarao, Myoko and nozawa onsen). Great value for money and staff were super friendly. Great if you like self catering lodges for families. Would recommend sharing a whole block with friends or family.
