Masa and the staff at Hotel Madam Mirei were so lovely! They helped us feel very welcome and ensured we had all we needed. The room was sufficient and wonderfully warm after a day in the snow. The hot pot dinner they provide in the restaurant is exceptional and delicious too! The snow gear and boards were all in great condition and they supplied everything we needed to go snowboarding/skiing on the slopes at the hotel. Good value for money and would definitely come back here again next time we're in Madarao.

The showers are completely open and shared public rooms with no private cubicles which was a new experience, but it was fun/unique. You can have some privacy if you go outside the busy hours, and the facilities work great.

This great hotel is conveniently located just a 5-minute walk from the entrance to Madarao Resort, with a small mini-mart right next door. The property is clean and well-maintained, and the staff are exceptionally kind and helpful. Guests can have nice breakfast and dinner options for an additional fee. Additionally, the hotel offers ski and snowboard equipment rentals, which it a highly convenient .

The shared bathroom is located on a different floor from the guest rooms. And it's important to note that the showers are not individually partitioned but are separated by gender.

Great little budget place close to the slopes. This is an 80's era lodge, so if your looking for new and flash this is probably not your place. I knew what I was booking prior to coming so was more than happy with the basic facilities at an excellent price. It's only a short walk to the slopes and restaurants, and in a really convieniant location. The staff and managers and friendly and helpful and assisted me with various things during my stay. I would happily stay here again. If cheap and cheerful is what you are looking for then this is your place.

It would be great to have a communal area or lounge to be able to hang out in. The onsens and showers can be busy during certain time but you are warned at check in what times this is so just try to avoid this and it is fine.

location close to the ski slope. cheap Japanese meals. Hotel guests are mostly Japanese (polite and respectful).

the public bathroom. it might be ok for people coming from the culture where public bath is common. but for people who needs some privacy you need to prepare to be butt naked with other people splashing water next to you. probably that's why i only see one white guy during my stay.

All you can eat dinner hotpot for 1000 Yen was unmatched on the mountain. Ridiculously good value and very delicious. Breakfast was very handy as well. Great friendly staff with good English, they made sure to go the extra mile to give us lift ticket discount coupons as well as cheap goggle rental. Spacious room. 10/10

Walking distance to ski lifts. Good food at good price. Not a luxury hotel, but if you're looking for good value for skiing, this place was great. Staff were very helpful

The staff were so kind and helpful. Easy access to the ski slopes Snow gear hire was cheap if you need anything also.

Excellent experience…

Comfortable, friendly staff and good value. We enjoyed the hot pot dinner she the breakfast.

The gentleman at reception was lovely and accommodating we loved our view from our room
