Cosy lodge, our room was spacious, very comfortable beds, beautiful views and daily breakfast was a perfect start to the day. Location was perfect for us and just a few minutes away from the main ski resorts via a free shuttle. Has great amenities and comfortable facilities. The only improvements we would suggest is to give the toilet areas a renovation. Overall, our stay was perfect, and a special thank you to Christo & Maggie going above and beyond to making our stay unforgettable! Highly recommended this place & we hope to visit again soon!! ##### Vanessa Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ikuro 3 Jan 2025 Reasonable price and good service of staff but poor facilities. ##### Ikuro Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Maria 17 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had a nice stay. A property prepared for days of skiing. The breakfast was good. The onsen warming. The views magnificent. We were snowed in one day and were only able to find food at a convenience store. The drives around the lake and mountains are beautiful. The highway has an exit nearby but there is plenty of other access. Probably great for summer too! ##### Maria Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jaqueline 9 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Property manager was super nice and excellent with customer service.

The best beds we've yet had to sleep on. Bedding was super comfortable as well. The included breakfast was great. Western style. Lake around the property is nice to walk, has several good food options. The 7-11 is an easy 10 min walk to get drinks and snacks. And the fellow at the resort gave us a quick lift to the train station for the next leg of our journey. Really enjoyed our stay. ##### Katarzyna Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Anna 21 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Cosy hotel with fluffy mattress and duvet - totally enjoyable! Although booked king double bed room, got twin instead. Had to move beds together and deal with 2 separate blankets instead of one big! Also had some bugs in the bathroom. Staff were friendly and nice, super tasty breakfast too! Mixed feelings and felt it was overpriced - obviously because of location as facilities were average. ##### Anna Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Deborah 13 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Would stay again This hotel is family run, with attentive and friendly host. The host invited my daughter to watch a Ghibli movie with their kids in the common area, and then served treats during the movie. The breakfast was excellent (variety of cereal, granola, bread, yogurt as well as hot breakfast made fresh with a salad). The beds were comfortable and one of our rooms had a toilet and bath/shower in the room. The other room used the shared toilets. There was a washer and dryer free and easy to use. The hotel is located within a short 5 min walk to Nojiriko Village docks, restaurants and shopping. The hotel is older, with some areas showing wear (e.g., tiles missing or taped to bathroom wall so they don’t fall off). ##### Deborah Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### BEN 1 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities This property is one of the best Ski lodges stays I have been to in 20 years of travelling the world. The team of Christo and Co are all amazing humans that live to please the guests and make your stay an incredible experience. Every day you are cooked a hot breakfast by an amazing Chef Maggie then assisted with transport from the team to get to and from any mountain of your choice for the day of snow action. Each evening you have a choice of in hotel 3 or 5 course dinner or supported to find amazing restaurants around Myoko for your dining requests with delivery and pick up to eat out. Facilities in the hotel are great with a heated hot pool in both the men's and women's wet areas to assist in recovery after a big day of riding. Overall, this place in 5-star treatment at an affordable price in Japan. The team are legendary to deal with everything provided to make your snow holiday amazing. I couldn't recommend this place anymore and I will be going back next year with my family. ##### BEN Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shelby 18 Feb 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff is incredible! The owner, Chris, is so inviting and welcoming as is the rest of the staff. There is a shuttle you can book to take you to the mountains, dinners, train station. The restaurant in the hotel is so good though as well. The rooms are very clean and they offer robes and sandals for the baths / showers. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/85199955-ce69-4590-9128-50eeee4f8800-1771384309954.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f7166ad0-a02d-410d-a0b5-0e0ce24819a8-1771384316411.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Dinner at the hotel ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c05bf5c1-5309-45aa-9d35-bcee04ec8657-1771384328332.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/31d5249c-77cd-47fd-9fee-944d7e148ce3-1771384339543.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Shelby Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chad 18 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We stayed for 3 nights with breakfast included. The property manager and staff were very nice and accommodative. They gave us free use of the SUPs and kayaks which was lots of fun. The rooms were nice and freshly renovated. Highly recommended for either a summer stay to enjoy the lake activities or a winter stay to hit the nearby slopes.
