It is a very great location if you want to ski in Zao Onsen ski field. Literally the hotel is 200 meters away from the ski field base and 100 meters from a few gears rental stores.

The hotel is located near the upper platform and the No. 4 cable car, which is very convenient for skiing. However, the hot spring facilities are relatively simple and old, the breakfast is also average, and the room heating is insufficient.

Very good hotel, with everything you need, and the room is quite spacious. Change shoes when you enter the door. The hotel you choose is old, but it is well maintained and refreshing. You can call the hotel when you arrive at the Zao bus terminal, and they will drive to pick you up. They will also send you to the bus station on the return trip. The hotel is only 50 meters away from the ticket center for Cable Car No. 4 and Cable Car No. 5. It should be the closest hotel to these two cable cars. You can buy cable car coupons at the front desk. 7000 a day. Very ski-friendly. The hotel has a spacious ski drying room on B1. I stayed for three days, and the three dinners were slightly different, especially the main course of meat was different. It was not too greasy. The hot springs are indoors and outdoors, and basically there are few people who book the venue. A very cost-effective hotel. The only thing is that there are no convenience stores nearby. If you want to eat snacks, it is recommended to bring some in.

A Japanese-style hotel with a great location. The No. 4 cable car station is less than 100 meters away, which is very convenient for skiing. The hotel is quite old. Although the facilities are a bit old, there is no separate shower in the room (you can only take a shower in the hot spring public bath), only a washbasin and a toilet, but the overall style is very Japanese, and the food and service are very good. In particular, the hotel's hot spring is very good. After soaking, the skin is smooth. The open-air hot spring downstairs can also be bathed while watching the snow, which is really a wonderful enjoyment.
The hotel can provide short-distance pick-up and drop-off services, such as from the Zao bus station to the hotel or from the hotel to the ski lift station, etc., just call the hotel front desk. The hotel service staff mainly speaks Japanese, but can also communicate in simple English.
