The buffet at night was good, especially the roast beef and garlic flavored shiitake mushrooms. The sushi requires a lot of handshaking, and I wish they didn't have to squeeze it so much, but the taste was good, even with the new rice. At night, there were many locally produced and locally consumed menu items, so I felt like I was on a trip.The inside of the building was very clean and I had a good time there.I was a little disappointed because I couldn't find the ingredient list for the hot springs. The sauna felt good.

I was able to do it without any problems.A quiet period before the snow falls.Although it was too early for the leaves to turn red, I was soothed by the green ski slopes.

It doesn't have the atmosphere of catering to groups that is often found in ski resorts, but I felt comfortable with the staff's response and service. I'm grateful that they leave me alone in a good way without any unnecessary intervention. The rooms are pretty average but comfortable. There is no noise from the hallway, and noise from elevators and other sources doesn't bother me that much. (Maybe it depends on the location of the room) The bathroom is also normal. The sauna is small and I feel like I'll give up if there are two customers in front of me. Of particular note is the food, which is a perfect 5 points! The time I visited was during the new rice season, but the rice was delicious! I think they have a large selection of dishes. I think everyone from children to the elderly can enjoy this. The only parking lot is at the bottom of the slope (quite a steep slope) and requires effort to move with large luggage. It is best to drop off your luggage at the entrance and go from the parking lot. The same goes for the way back, so I think it's better to have the driver bring the car to your front door and load your luggage. The way back was steep and straight. It was a wonderful inn that made me want to use it again, even though my skills wouldn't allow me to visit it during the snowy season.

As soon as I entered the room, I thought it was clean and bigger than my house! I stayed there 10 years ago, and the room is just as clean and beautiful as it was then! I can see the efforts of the employees.The hot springs were also a comfortable temperature and I was able to soak in the water comfortably. Even in the changing rooms, employees often come to clean them, so you can see that they are always conscious of cleanliness.The food was also delicious. The best part of traveling is being able to enjoy local cuisine while looking at the scenery. I also wanted to work hard at work and visit with my whole family next time!

During my stay, I was left with a positive impression of the sincere work of all the hotel staff.I was deeply impressed by the courteous manner in which all the staff dealt with the guests.The cleanliness of the guest rooms has been meticulously done to ensure every detail is comfortable.All the dishes were served at the right temperature and each one was delicious.They were all so delicious that it's hard to say which dish was the best.Among them, I made my own kirina rice bowl by placing kirina, which was on the breakfast menu, on top of warm Uonuma Koshihikari rice, and enjoyed the most delicious rice. Kirinadon is highly recommended.This was the perfect trip for us as we wanted to take a break in a quiet environment.The lawns on the premises were carefully maintained, and I could feel the sincere work of all the staff at Maiko Resort until the very end. Thank you again.Of course, I will ask you again.

The room was a royal suite and was spacious enough to spend a relaxing time.The built-in refrigerator is almost a storage space.I have my own preferences when it comes to meals, so I would like you to enjoy the images 🎵 Our limited staff is constantly on the move. Food is served in small portions, but they bring it from the backyard and replenish it before it runs out. When it rained, I made sure to check to see if there were any seasonings still available. It was especially nice to see how carefully and thoroughly the tables were cleaned and disinfected after meals.I was able to eat with peace of mind because that's where the food goes in my mouth.I felt once again that it was the best.Because of the careful replenishment, it is enough to make sushi rolls, cakes, and sashimi that tend to be dry, fluffy, moist, and glossy.It was also nice that there were no time commitments and no restrictions.
