Hotels in Minamiuonuma District

"Hotel room was good and massive,facilities are abundant as well. The onsen is super spacious and it's thru the night. Food selection are quite a few but do try to get to Eki for more selections... Just take note of the last shuttle bus back to hotel. In all the stay was good, just need to take note that this hotel is only allow SKI in / SKI out... But NOT SNOWBOARDING.... That you have to take shuttle bus to other resort location thru its skiing shuttle bus services..."

"1. There’s pickup and dropoff for Echigo stn  2. No shoes allowed beyond the hotel entrance 3. Front desk have a local Japanese staff that can speak English. Pretend to be nice not. Anything else , he will tell you don’t know. Go find yourself. Besides selling tickets that he will earn money. You’ll get no information from him 4. 1st day check-in, my in room hot spring tub is slimy n dirty stained wil algae. I scrub a lot out and took video. Same Japanese man came and nothing. Till I show him the algae I’ve scrub and the video, he kept quiet. Housekeeping do scrub off within 30mins 5. Breakfast is same everyday 6. Dinner, slight changes but still 99% same. 7. Child meal is hopeless.  Stayed for 5nights, same meals daily.  8. Want to bring a cake to dinner to celebrate my Daughters Birthday, we were forbidden to do so. Nothing besides what they bring to you.  9. Onsen was good 10. Basic ice cream treats.  11. Simple ramen in the evening Hotel is too rigid. It’s really expensive during our visits. The rules at dining and the same meals daily, it’s unbearable. Kids have nothing much to eat For the price, I’ll not stay in this rigid property. Many other Ryokan resort for lesser price and better options. It’s not ski in ski out and yet price are too high."

"The onsen was excellent. Dinner was plentiful, but breakfast was just okay. In the Japanese-style rooms, guests need to lay out their own futons. The hotel offers ski equipment rental, which was very convenient."

"From the window, you get direct views of the ski lift, allowing for true ski-in/ski-out access. There are also plenty of dining options. However, the hotel facilities are a bit dated, and during ski season, the hotel shuttle service is a bit infrequent."

"excellent ski resort with related facilities rental shop just nearby with reasonable price hot spring in public provided buffet restaurant and a Japanese restaurant under the hotel ski locker per room provided and 24 hours convenient store however the room cleanliness maybe improved"

"The hotel is 5-10 minutes walk from Echigo-Yuzawa Station, a little uphill, pushing a large suitcase is acceptable, not too strenuous. January just after the Japanese long holiday stay, one night two meals more than HK$800 value, every day on time staff delivered to the room, very rich dishes, a total of 4 nights, every day the menu is different, hotel The staff of the and restaurant were very polite, the first day at 9 pm arrived at the hotel, thinking so late, will not leave food and ready to go out to find something to eat, very suddenly someone knocked on the door, opened the door to see a large pot Japanese food is in front of you. It's too cold outside. Japanese tatami, great view outside the window, will definitely come again next time I come skiing."

"The Japanese-style room is more suitable for us than the pure tatami room, and it is clean and tidy. When checking in, they will ask if you need daily cleaning, which is quite considerate and can meet the various needs of guests. If you mind someone entering the room during your stay, you can refer to this. However, the dinner for one night and two meals is all-you-can-eat (maybe I didn’t book the right dining method), which I don’t like very much. Fortunately, I only booked dinner for the first night, and ate the rest in the hot spring street (there are too many delicious foods in the hot spring street)"

"The hotel is relatively old, but the service is very good, and the parking problem was solved in a timely manner. The hot spring and breakfast are average, and the dinner is good. This stay is mainly for skiing. The front desk can call the ski shop to pick you up, and when you return to the hotel, they will also call the ski shop to pick you up, which is very convenient. There are many people renting ski equipment in Gala, so it is very convenient to rent at the front desk."

"Very nice place to stay! Quiet during the spring/summer period due to the area being more popular in winter. Very near Echigo Yuzawa Station within 5min walk. Was welcomed into the hotel nicely with complimentary matcha and snack. Upon check in there was even a cute Gachapon game in which you could win one of their special Niigata/Yuzawa stuff! I won a small pack of Niigata rice. Room was clean and spacious with a comfy futon bed. The public baths were so nice and well maintained! The staff here are very friendly and attentive. If you did not reserve their special dinner/breakfast set, you can still do say with 2 days advanced order over the front desk. I also love that they provide free shuttle to the station at check out upon request! Definitely staying here again if ever back in the area 🫶🏼"

"It seems that renovation work will be underway until December 15th. Ritchia is very nice. The buffet was also very enjoyable with a very extensive menu."
