Extremely nice staffs in the hotel, although some staffs can’t speak fluent English, there’s no problem in communicating as they are very willing to understand the customer by using translator. Breakfast and dinner were fantastic Japanese meals with no repeated dishes. Hotel room was spacious and clean. Hotel will drive you in and out to cater your itinerary! Wish I could’ve stayed longer!

Great service. Impressed with the food - we stayed for 4 nights and there was no repeat meal. Good onsen. Convenient location to stay in (with a car) for skiing in Zao Resort.

The hotel is very Japanese style, the scenery outside the window is very beautiful, and there is a snowy scene as soon as the window is opened. The hot springs are divided into indoor and outdoor areas. The outdoor area is very close, just a two-minute walk. The hotel provides water shoes. and shawls. The hot spring has no special features, it's just the same pool both indoors and outdoors. It is very close to Zao Station, just a few steps away.

A highly recommended hotel, except for the slightly expensive price, there is no other problem 🤣 The hotel is within walking distance to the ski resort, and the staff will drive to pick you up, 2 minutes by car. The food is delicious and you won't get tired of eating it for 4 days. The boutique sells exquisite and cute things, and the price is reasonable. I regret buying less! The hot spring is very comfortable and clean! I would like to thank every staff member in particular, they are very enthusiastic and sincere, very helpful, and touching! I will stay here again next time I come to Zao❤️

The staff's service attitude is very good. The hotel is located near the cable car station. Because it snowed that night, the staff also took the initiative to drive us to the cable car station. The food is also very delicious. The staff will come forward to ask about the quality of the food.
