Great location, staff were very friendly and helpful. Dinner and breakfast buffets were delightful! Just be aware of dated facilities, like others have mentioned.

Amazing location, scenery and views! The area around the hotel is beautiful, and so many things to see within easy walking and driving distance. The on-site Onsens were also great! Parts of the property are getting old and worn, but otherwise clean and well kept. The included buffet breakfasts and dinners were an unexpected bonus!

Nice rustic onsen

Dated hotel, as are all the hotels in the area, but very well maintained. Staff were all superb and the food service was very efficient and tasty. Not Michelin starred, but neither is the cost.

An ok hotel but showing it’s age

The hotel is quite old and could be in need of some renovation. The area itself is pretty dead during the winter. Only reason to stay here is for the ice festival if you are not driving. The staff were friendly and the included meals are a stellar deal. Could be better during the other seasons.

The hotel is near the Hells Valley so it is accesible. The property needs refurbishment critically so guests can have a better experience. The room is clean but the mildew smell is unbearable. It is a quiet location which makes it enjoyable.

建物が古いためか部屋の窓からの隙間風があり多少ではあるが雪が入って来てました。 お風呂も建物内に温泉3ヶ所と近くの系列ホテルの温泉も入れます。 食事も品数が多く美味しかったですが、朝食の時間が7:00〜8:00の間だけと少し速すぎな気がしました。
