Delicious Dining Experience

The buffet during my stay was impressive, offering a wide variety of local specialties that kept me wanting more. I especially loved trying the Kiritanpo Nabe; it was delightful! The abundance of choices made each meal exciting, and I appreciated the late-night tantan men that was served as a complimentary treat. Overall, dining here was a highlight of my stay!

Relaxing Onsen Bliss

The onsen facilities here are simply amazing! I enjoyed both the indoor and outdoor baths, which were spacious and clean. The outdoor onsen, in particular, provided a magical experience, surrounded by nature. I couldn't believe how refreshing and relaxing it was, especially after a day of skiing. The atmosphere was serene, making it a perfect retreat.

Spacious Accommodations

I was pleasantly surprised by the spaciousness of my Japanese-style room. It had all the amenities I needed, including a TV, fridge, and tatami mats. The futon was comfortable enough for a good night's sleep, even though there was some noise from the corridor. The experience of sleeping in traditional Japanese bedding added to the unique charm of my stay.

Cozy and Comfortable

The bedroom was a nice retreat with traditional decor and a tranquil atmosphere. I particularly enjoyed the soothing sounds of the nearby stream, which added to the calming ambiance. While there were a few minor design quirks, like the sliding door leaving a small gap, it didn't take away from the overall comfortable experience of my room.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, nestled near a beautiful snowy forest and not far from Tsuru-no-yu. The rooms were enormous and easy to keep warm, making for a cozy environment. The service was incredibly accommodating, which is a nice touch. However, the dining options could use a bit more variety and creativity. Overall, I think this hotel offers great value for the price, but there's room for improvement in dining.

This hotel had some great aspects, especially the spacious and warm rooms that made our stay comfortable. The staff was accommodating and kind, which is something you don’t always find.
