Yes, hotel offers a wide variety of food and mostly rich in protein which is ideal for skiing. The main course in dinner time offers 3 choices, fish, beef and meat which are good to suit different preferences of guests. The take-away at breakfast time is flexible. In general, the hotel is ideal for skiing.

We stayed in the South building. The staff are incredible. Attentive and professional. Food and service was outstanding. Room was small but comfortable. So good having ski in ski out. Godala at the door and we were lucky it snowed and we had good skiing in mid Dec. Only thing I would have changed was to book the 3 bed room for a bit more space and views over the ski field. Bus from Nagano Station was easy to catch with luggage.

They, the staff, exceeded my expectations . Courteous, helpful, kind and pleasant are words that I would use to describe them. Everyone greets you with a bow and civility, right down to the hardest workers in the hotel. For that, i will surely come back. My stay at the Prince Hotel East was worth every yen and then some. I originally was suppose to stay at the Sunvalley Hotel, in Shiga Kogen. I lost my reservation there due to payment issues. I was hesitant about coming to the Prince Hotel. It was my first time. The room i stayed in was probably one of the best i have seen for the price. The next time I am in Shiga Kogen, i am staying at the Prince Hotel East, without a doubt.

We visited the hotel for a ski trip and loved it all!

We stayed in the west tower and enjoyed the onsen and multiple on-site restaurants. Would definitely stay again!

Limited selections of breakfast, same daily. Hotel guest with tattoo is ban from using the hot bath - many big ski in/ski out hotel allowed guest with tattoos to use the hot bath in recent years, no biggie but would have been a plus after a day of ski. We were given the 4 single bed room for our family of 3 (2 adult + 6yrs old kid). The bed was tiny with no rooms to turn. Overall ok decent hotel but would try out others next time.

A bit over priced, no place to really relax and lounge around apart from the bar which did not have comfy seating vs the lounge areas in many of the other local hotels. On snow access is good and easy access with their bus to the other local Spots

Rooms were clean, staff was helpful, location is good. Over all experience was good. Only suggestion is it would be helpful if travellers are provided with shuttle service from bus stop to hotel. Though the distance is less, with thick snow, carrying heavy luggage is extremely difficult. Also request to add some vegetarian food options.

Spent 4 nights and was very satisfied with my stay. The breakfast and dinners were buffet style in a large cafeteria, with a very nice selection of different options each day. The semi-enclosed hot bath (gender segregated) was nice, though the view is restricted only to the very top of the tree line. The ski rental shop staff were very friendly and helpful, and the the facilities were nice. The ramen restaurant was great! Apart from the bath, there was really nothing to do, since the hotel is isolated, but that was to be expected. My only criticism is that there was no gym, which would give people another option to pass the time.

Comfortable but dated.

We found our stay uneventful. I have stayed at this hotel 4 times over the years and it doesn’t change so it is quite dated. There are new doonas on the beds but they are too thick for the heated room. Also, no descent lounge areas for relaxation. But, the hotel has a fantastic location and dining room.

Great skiing lodge- ski in/out to slopes. Restaurant served excellent food however it was the only option available during our stay (end of March) and it was expensive and really not suitable for very young children. Also only one shop open with limited food options. Not so great for very small children- we could have purchased supplies to bring in if we had known. Ability to go to other parts of resort limited at this time in the season, Staff were very helpful.
