Dry room is located in the basement level Restaurant is good for both breakfast and dinner with reasonable price. Supermarket is just right across the street The only down side is it can be a little bit noisy during the late night on the main street. ##### YU JU Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Wai Kheong Mercury 7 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness the place really need an update. plus the lobby is fill with smoking fume from the smoking room. guess the smoke filtration system not working. ##### Wai Kheong Mercury Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### CHIEN EN 29 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort 服務人員很棒 ##### CHIEN EN Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 8 Jan 2019 #### 近いので楽 夕食は和食より洋食かな。 レンタルも近いし土産屋も下にあるので楽。 ゴンドラ乗り場までも近いので楽。 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jan 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 31 Jan 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The only negative I can say about my experience is that check-in is at 3pm (no earlier), which is fine until you get charged 500yen just to store your bags until a room is available. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 24 Feb 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### 距離滑雪場入口比較近 一間有人情味的住店,可惜缺點亦不少。 房間隔音比較差,洗手間有一股怪味。酒店不收信用卡,我還是第一次在日本的酒店不收信用卡,令我大失預算。 酒店距離滑雪場入口算是比較近,步行約3分鐘。 ##### Verified traveller ### 4/10 Poor #### Luke, Hong Kong 18 Jan 2017 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### disappointed The hotel is located about 8 mins walk uphill from the bus stop, if the path is not wet and slippery. I stayed at room 405, with a view of ski resort but windows cannot be opened. The 2nd night, I was waken in the midnight by noise of dripping water outside, it snowed heavily outside. there were false alarms calling from 4am. No one staff has explained what happened and calmed down their customers. The false alarm stopped at 10 eventually. I found the floor was wet, but not closed to the windows. Believed the wet is leakage from upper floor where onsen is there. When I had breakfast in the restaurant, I could see everyone was exhausted. ##### Luke ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 9 May 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### 登山、スキーには最高のロケーション 栂池高原より登山を行うスタート地点としては、最高のロケーションだと思います。 ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Ryuta, 東京 28 Mar 2016 Liked: Staff & service #### 快適に過ごせました それほど大きくは無いですが、スノーボードの後の温泉は最高でした! ありがとうございました。 ##### Ryuta ### 8/10 Good #### Melanie, Australia 29 Feb 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Great Service A choice of western or traditional Japanese style rooms to choose from with both options available for dinner and breakfast this hotel pleases all. Amazing onsen where you can relax after a full day of skiing. Clean and tidy hotel. ##### Melanie ### 6/10 Okay #### G, HKG 27 Dec 2015 #### so-so There was no room cleaning on Sunday - we were only told at time of check-in. Early check-in (ie. before 3pm) needs to pay 2000 yen - we were only told at time of check-in. You even cannot just leave your luggage at the concierge (for free) even though you arrived early - each piece of luggage cost 500 yen. Guests can smoke in the hotel lobby - making the lobby very stuffy. Sunday breakfast was buffet type - very good quality and reasonable number of choices. Mon/Tue only have set breakfast. If you are not too use to traditional Japanese type of of food, you might not find it too attractive. The good thing is there is limited serving of rice (breakfast and dinner). ##### G ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 1 Jan 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### best value walking 75 yards from base of slopes. the resort had the best powder skiing I've experienced in my life. The hotel has seen better days but is clean and reasonably priced. The staff went out of their way to help us in a town where we were the only nonjapanese. Everyone was friendly and we would love to come back. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Tsuyoshi 10 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Tsuyoshi Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Benjamin 11 Feb 2024 ##### Benjamin Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### In 26 Feb 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### In Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Howson 3 Feb 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Howson ---
