*About 5 minutes walk from the ski resort*There are shops and restaurants nearby.*Drying room available*Hot spring available*I think it is for large groups of travelers.Other details (early March 2024)I used it for one night for work.It was convenient because it was close to the express bus stop and the ski resort. Also, there were shops and restaurants nearby, so I didn't feel inconvenienced. During the winter season, the surrounding roads are cleared of snow, but they can be slippery enough to get a bus stuck, so if you are driving a car, you should be prepared.Regarding the facility, you are required to take off your lower legs at the entrance, and ski equipment is placed in a drying room. Additionally, the drying room will be locked late at night for security reasons. The hot springs are empty except late at night, so it was also appealing to be able to take a bath early in the morning. When I was there, there weren't many guests so I was able to relax.There is also a large lobby with a TV on the first floor, where you can relax before departure. I was able to use it while waiting for the bus after checking out, and it was very helpful.Regarding the room and the attached bath and toilet, it feels a little old, but it was not inconvenient and I felt relaxed. Breakfast was also good as there were a lot of small bowls.I think it is recommended for guests with families.

I used it for a stay on a tour.Is it okay to serve so much food? That's what I thought.I was able to choose several types of pickles myself.I was able to ski well because I ate well.The road from the ski resort to the hotel was sloped and icy, so it was scary to walk in ski boots.The hotel is warm and you can relax on the sofa in the lobby until check-in.The hot springs can only accommodate about 5 people, and there were a lot of people there right after checking in, so I recommend waiting a while before entering. The temperature of the water was a little hot.

Although it was a little far from the gondola, it was a very nice accommodation including the atmosphere.Meals too 🆗!! ️ The amount is just right.I can't set the heating temperature in my room✕The toilet also didn't have a washlet.I feel very safe knowing that my luggage sent by courier is stored properly in a separate room.

The only problem is the difference in steps in the Japanese-style bath. Other than that it's excellent. Especially the dinner and breakfast are delicious. There is no doubt that the rice miso soup is delicious. Customer service is also well-supervised.
