This was excellent value for money with ski up to the door, lovely buffet breakfast with lots to choose from, cosy Onsen hot pool, a lovely fire with marshmallows to toast every night. You could hire ski gear here and our room had a lovely view down the valley. There was table tennis downstairs for the snowy days. It was also in I think the best location in Shiga Kogen Ski field. East access in either direction and bus outside. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Although the dinner was delicious it was expensive. We had it twice more as a special treat and had a bigger lunch the rest of the time.

The onsen in the basement is really nice after a day of skiing. You can ski up to the entrance of the hotel. The breakfast is very nice as well. Plenty of choice and all good quality. A nice extra is the fire place and the pot with marshmallows that could be heated over the open fire

The room was quite warm, and the heater could not be adjusted as needed. There is no shower in the room, but the onsen makes up for it. Dinner in the hotel is expensive and there are not many options for dinner around

Traditional hotel lodge in an excellent location in Shiga Kogan. 3 minute walk to the main ski lift. Loved the open fireplace and communal space. The large onsen was very nice after a day on the slopes. Welcoming and helpful staff. And extensive breakfast options. Easy walking to bars and restaurants. Ski hire equipment was new, high quality and great value.

Older style but warm and welcoming.

Stayed here with my family for a ski trip and they cover everything, from ski rentals to ski passes and food. The service was exceptional and the food was delicious as well. I really loved the lounge with the fireplace where you could sit and relax after a day of skiing.

The toilet was slightly dirty when we first moved in, but they cleaned it after the first day so its okay. The hotel property is a bit dated so it can't compare with modern hotels, but it makes up for it with it's services and food really.

The rooms are a good size. Inside is a little dated but it is clean and suited out needs. Staff were wonderful, very attentive to all our needs. The quality of ski equipment for hire was excellent, and we were able to book a ski lesson with one of the staff members. This proved to be very beneficial.

Only option for bedding was single beds.

The ski lessons were excellent, the instructor knowledgeable and thoughtful, 3 hours with im really imprevied my technique. The onsen was very good and staff were very friendly and keen to be of service to make sure everyone was comfortable and hppy

I tool the half board package and the abundamt food was good but it was somewhat repetitive

Great family hotel in central and accessible part of the ski resort. A short walk to the nearest lift and ability to ski to front door at end of the day (after crossing the road).

Little variety in evening food options. It's a small hotel so you don't expect a huge menu, but one or two other things would really help.

- Excellent location; bus stop nearby and easy access to nearby ski areas - Service - Good breakfast and even better dinner. Dinner was serving an excellent variety of local and Japanese cuisine. You could also combine it with shabu shabu. - The room was equipped with a shower and an onsen was available 24/7 - Heated skistorage - Homelike atmosphere

- Absolutely nothing to dislike. But keep in mind that it’s not a big city chain hotel but a Japanese ski hotel.

It was amazing to have an onsen to use every day after skiing. The breakfast was delicious with so many options. Awesome location with ski lift right across the road from the hotel.

Nothing other than the bed was very hard.

Incredible from start to finish. Helpful staff, ski gear rental on site, beautiful onsen, great food, very good value for money, right by the bus stop to and from Nagano station.

Nothing!
