"We stayed for 3 nights with meals included. The buffet offered slight variations each day, especially with the tempura and sushi ingredients, soups, and cake selections. Everything was delicious, and we never got bored.
Since we opted out of daily cleaning for our multi-night stay, we received a 1000 yen voucher for the hotel shop each time, which was a nice bonus during the busy season.
The hotel layout was compact and well-organized. It was easy to get around from the ski locker to the public bath, restaurant, and front desk, making for a very comfortable stay.
The only minor issue was the towels. We only received exactly enough bath and face towels for the number of guests. If you use one as a hand towel, you quickly run out, especially on a multi-night stay. I wish they had provided a few extra."

"It was a positive experience in this lodge, operated by a family who speaks limited English.
They provide the best dinner (western 5 course meal) and breakfast, which was something I was looking forward to everyday. For the three nights stay, it was always a different menu and the pastries were handmade!
Has a possibility to ski in when there’s sufficient snow, and ski lift was just a few minutes walk away."

Outstanding
SskyetzkI’m so excited to share a review for this amazing couple. Kazuo-san and his wife were very kind and caring throughout my entire stay.
They had the right amenities for a Bed and Breakfast that caters to ski lovers and snow boarders.
The B&B is also a more traditional and heritage kind, preserving the authentic looks through time, they’ve been running this for 35 beautiful years.
If you’d like, dinner is also available as an add-on, nothing beats a high value home-cooked food, made from the heart.
I’ll highly recommend this location, Kazuo-san also goes the extra mile to drop you off at the pick-up points if you don’t have your own car.
Beyond that Kazuo-san is also very knowledgeable and informed with the latest news, so he’s able to recommend good ski resorts, summer activities or even delve into the history of surrounding areas like Kurohime and more.
I was quite shocked to see some earlier reviews by other foreigners that rated this location quite poorly when they don’t understand what they’ve booked. This is a bed and breakfast inn and it’s every inch authentic as it should be. So if you’re looking for a fuss-free stay with friendly authentic folks, this should be on your list.
GGuest UserThis is the first stay for the participation of Lake Nojiri swimming
The hotel staff were all kind and there was no car to go by train, so they were very kind to pick up and drop off to the station and take me to the convenience store on the way.
The meal was also served at the restaurant and the volume was delicious.
After swimming, I was able to participate in the long swim very comfortably because I was exhausted by borrowing a shower again.
I would like to stay next year.
