Comfortable but dated.

We found our stay uneventful. I have stayed at this hotel 4 times over the years and it doesn’t change so it is quite dated. There are new doonas on the beds but they are too thick for the heated room. Also, no descent lounge areas for relaxation. But, the hotel has a fantastic location and dining room.

Spent 4 nights and was very satisfied with my stay. The breakfast and dinners were buffet style in a large cafeteria, with a very nice selection of different options each day. The semi-enclosed hot bath (gender segregated) was nice, though the view is restricted only to the very top of the tree line. The ski rental shop staff were very friendly and helpful, and the the facilities were nice. The ramen restaurant was great! Apart from the bath, there was really nothing to do, since the hotel is isolated, but that was to be expected. My only criticism is that there was no gym, which would give people another option to pass the time.

On snow easy access but isolated

A bit over priced, no place to really relax and lounge around apart from the bar which did not have comfy seating vs the lounge areas in many of the other local hotels. On snow access is good and easy access with their bus to the other local Spots

We visited the hotel for a ski trip and loved it all! All three buildings are ski in / ski out, have rental equipment and lift tickets available on site, and provide a great launching pad for a great ski experience. We stayed in the west tower and enjoyed the onsen and multiple on-site restaurants. Would definitely stay again!

Property has a Soviet era, industrial feel. Very dated. Functional and clean but way overpriced for what you get. Somewhat isolated with limited food options, though what we had was quite good. No ambience.

Rooms were clean, staff was helpful, location is good. Over all experience was good. Only suggestion is it would be helpful if travellers are provided with shuttle service from bus stop to hotel. Though the distance is less, with thick snow, carrying heavy luggage is extremely difficult. Also request to add some vegetarian food options.

Great location next to the “quad” chairlift

Great location at the bottom of the mountain next to the quad chairlift. Rentals & dining on site. Paid for “half board” and certainly got my moneys worth. Have stayed here before and will definitely be back.

Ski-in/ski-out, but peak season

Great ski-in/ski-out, but visit during peak season. We stayed during spring break and most restaurants were closed or closed supremely early. Rentals on site. Rooms were nice; maybe byo pillow.

Great for skiers! We were able to ski all the slopes without ever leaving the property! We used all 5 ski lifts between south, west and East blogs. Our room was very cozy and the view of the slopes was amazing. Hotel breakfast was delicious. Room stayed very hot even though we had the top of the window open. So hot that sleeping was uncomfortable. We rented our skies, boots and poles. Process was very easy and efficient. The hotel shuttle bus was great as well. Each evening we used the free shuttle and went to neighboring ski towns for dinner. Onsen in west bldg was very nice and clean. We also paid 1,000 yen (round trip) and used another shuttle to go see the snow monkeys. Overall, pretty satisfied.

Convenient ski resort with basic necessities.

Hotel is super convenient for skiers as it’s located right on top of ski lifts. Restaurants are restricted to ones within the hotel which all closes early (latest is 10). Prince hotels has different wings so there are shuttles every hour to send you to different buildings if you wish to dine there. Rooms are old and basic but spacious compared to regular Japanese rooms. It’s for you to sleep and go ski, so don’t expect too much. Not all staffs speaks english so you gotta try approaching different faces. However the ski instructors for hire speaks fluent English! Pleasant stay as aim was to go ski.I stayed at the south wing.
