As the last stop on our 2 week Japan journey, it was mildly disappointing to end with this accommodation. This property is dated, likely untouched since the 1998 olympics. The onsen has seen better days! The staff were friendly and great service at breakfast and checkin and check out. With a little update this hotel would be awesome. Snow monkeys are worth the trip!

This hotel has an amazing hot springs bath! Nice after a day of skiing. The Japanese style rooms are beautiful and large. The ski rental locker room is directly next to the Sunvalley ski lift, which is a great run and from the top you can ski to other shiga kogen runs.

It was very traditional Japanese and the people were very nice. I expected there to be more of a village and maybe places to eat very quiet and serene. It was lovely while we were there snowing and very easy access to the skiing. The gentleman who managed the ski rental and drove the van was the most wonderful guy we met in a long time !

I will start with positive comments. 1. Staff is extremely kind, helpful, and they always have smile on their faces. They definitely made the biggest contribution to our stay and I hope they are aware of it and that they are well compensated for it. 2. Food is a perfect gateway to authentic Nagano culinary cultural experience. 3. Rooms are spacious. And I like the idea of onsen. 4. If you are on a fast pace travel to Shiga Kogen I believe location is perfect. You literally ski in and ski out and can access other mountains by skiing or by free of charge bus. Snow Monkey Park stop is 25 minutes away. Hotel is 3 minute walk away from bus stop. And Nagano station is closer ride as well. On the other side, I was unpleasantly surprised by the condition of hotel. It seems like no money was invested in its appearance for few decades (besides new restroom in shared area on the first floor). Bathrooms in the rooms are outdated, onsens as well. Overall, it seems like majority of Shiga Kogen hospitality industry stopped developing decades ago which is sad because it is such an amazing place and I feel grateful I got to experience it!

Ideal Accomodation

It was an amazing stay for us. We were lucky enough to get a room for 2 nights even though they were not in season therefore not a lot of guests around. While language was a limitation they still offered to help in whatever way they could. The onsen was well maintained and the temperature was perfect. Additional massage chairs that were available after the bath was an added bonus. Service staff was excellent. Would definitely recommend this location for the stay. The nearest bus stop was within walking distance although during the snow season, the road to the hotel would definitely be slippery which makes pulling your luggage a fair challenge.

A absolutely amazing stay

The stay was great the staff helped me so much to make my proposal to my new Fiance better then I thought possible. The ski rental was easy the slopes start right outside and Shiga Kogen (the ski area) is absolutely massive you have to see it to believe it. The onsen was super comfy and the food was always delicious and made beautifully. I highly recommend.

非常有味道的日本酒店!

非常有味道的老酒店,女子泡汤在三楼,每天滑雪完毕直接到隔壁泡温泉很方便,从长野车站坐大巴到Sunvelly很容易,但是下车要走一段路门口就游览车,可以开始滑雪!入住酒店建议选择早晚两餐,晚餐是传统的日式料理,我们这次住了五个晚上,每餐都有不一样的内容,非常开心,吃的很舒服!
