This is a ski resort during the winter season. Although it’s still early season, they managed to open with man made snow. The snow condition is good but not great because the trail is narrow and there are too much skiers. However, it’s a great experience in the early season. The resort is also next to an outlet center . There are 200 plus shops. It’s great for non skiers. The hot springs are also great, especially for the skiers after the exercises. We are vegetarian and the restaurant taking care our request seriously. Over all, it’s a great experience and I will definitely recommend it to everyone.

Peaceful area

Our stay got off to a bad start when receptionist at check in said our reservation was for one person and that we had to pay an extra 6000 yen for two nights. I said the reservation was definitely made for two, but she said no. So I reluctantly agreed to pay. I finally found my reservation that confirmed I was right. When I went back to show receptionist she said I didn’t have to pay the extra 6000 yen. That was it. No apologies. Not the typical Japanese courtesy. Most of the remaining staff were very courteous and helpful. Maybe this receptionist was just having a bad day. The hotel was nice and quiet surrounded with beautiful trees and located near a very popular outlet. The buffet breakfast was very good.
