Myoko Hotels with Parking

Great stay at a Japanese bed and breakfast style accomodation. Owners are an elderly Japanese couple who speaks average English but we get by. Free transport to and fro ski slopes even though they are a 1.2 km walk away from Akakura Onsen main street. Owner was also kind enough to drive us to the train station for our rest day from snowboard. Breakfast was great! Room had attached toilets and were super clean. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Will stay here again next time I come to Myoko Kogen

The accommodation is clean and tidy, with drying rooms, public hot springs, washing machines, beverage vending machines and free tea areas. There is also a service to pick up and drop off to Akacang Hot Springs and Akacang Sightseeing Snow Resort. The meal is very delicious and the portion is sufficient.

Tabataya is a 100+ years family run rest house for skiing/snowboarding at myoko suginohara! The host only speaks Japanese but they are very warm and helpful nonetheless. Ski passes can be bought from them at a discount. I brought my own snowboard so I dont know about rentals. We used yamato transport to courier the boards to and fro the airport and tabataya. The host helped us with arranging the return courier to airport 😊. Although it was slightly pricey but there was value for what we paid. Meals are available at a fixed price of about 3500yen and the chef decides the menu! Although the bathrooms are shared, they are very very clean. Lastly, it is worth noting that the nearby Asakusa onsen ski resort will have more food options and night skiing compared to suginohara. It's my first time experiencing Japow and im glad Myoko is part of this experience 😊 (one of the longest and widest beginner runs)

The meal is delicious, dinner changes every day Behind the hotel is the cable car station Staff can communicate in English

The hotel's outlook/renovation is to a point it felt like travel back in the early 80's or in a move set. Even all the details as big as the sofa and as detailed as the mat to put the vase in the room. So if you are looking at an old style japanese place there it is. We booked two rooms for a family of 6 and we love the space-  there is a tatami room and also a living room accross which is perfect to handle skiing items. There are 3 onsens and we tried all. One is big and the other two is small (if you prefer some privacy). Breakfast is nice. If you a looking at a tranditional japanese experience - this is the place. It's a small walking distance (less than 5 mins) to the ski lift at the Akakura Onsen ski area. 

Because it is recommended to google map, it is not necessary to leave the car early and push it up the mountain, but it turned out that there was no one on the road near the fruit, so it is impossible to have super thick snow belts. Remember to take the bus to the snow field. The car shop will be located in the hotel. If you don’t have to go up the mountain, you will want to die.
