In this day and age, a weekend trip costs just over 10,000 yen 👌The room was spacious, well-cleaned, and beautiful. The dinner buffet was a delicious mix of Japanese and Western dishes, including a boatload of sashimi, my favorite green curry, and caprese.And best of all, the freshly cooked rice was delicious. As expected from Niigata, the place for rice👍

This is a resort hotel attached to a ski resort in Muikamachi. Dinner is a buffet, and all the dishes are delicious. All-you-can-eat crab is a standard, but due to the country being at war with the country, it is currently on hiatus. Funamori's sashimi is especially delicious, so there is always a line for crab and sashimi. Even if you stay for several nights, the dishes will change several times, so you won't get bored. ``Muika salad'' is so delicious that you should try it.However, the most delicious thing is white rice.Other guests also said that the food was very delicious. As expected from a hotel in Minamiuonuma. If you have a chance to stay overnight, try eating white rice without anything on it when you go to a restaurant. I'm sure you'll find it delicious. That's why I stay here every year to eat.Although the building is quite old, it is kept clean.It has been renovated and now has casual rooms, superior rooms, and an art studio.The hot springs have a hot indoor bath and an open-air bath with just the right temperature.The staff are very kind and friendly. On a day of heavy snow, the car was completely buried, and they worked together to shovel the snow and dig it out.Outside of the ski season, people come to enjoy the mountains of Minamiuonuma by walking on the slopes.If you take a short drive down the mountain, Aeon and Muikamachi are also nearby, so you can go there for fun.

The building is old, but well kept. The dinner buffet includes boatloads of fresh fish and is very satisfying. You can also spend a relaxing day in the hot spring bath.

wonderfulI used it on my way home after watching the fireworks festival in Nagaoka.The facility is not new, but it is well maintained and you can feel the enthusiasm of the hotel.We also used the breakfast buffet and it was all we needed.It was a delicious breakfast.My daughter had 3 refills.What is noteworthy is the hotel system here.I was on shift for the fireworks display on that day, so I was able to check in late at night! It was 11pm at my house (there seemed to be a group that was even later than that).The smiling faces of the staff gave me a strong impression of a nice hotel.This hotel is not very luxurious, but I can feel their sincerity.Thank you to all the staff. I will make a reservation again next year.
