“Does the trick for a ski stay with the very basics.”
+Great location.
−For what we paid, we expected a little more. The room was bland and basement level. The futon mattresses were very thin. I never quite understood the meal options and they weren’t explained. The hosts were kind.

“Great Japanese food and hospitality”
+Great spot and loved our private bathroom, especially our wooden tub/ Onsen for one. Great after that day of skiing/ snowboarding. Beautiful breakfast Japanese style and their dinners if you book early are amazing.

“Fantastic.”
+The accommodation was located in a perfect position, right in the middle of Nozawa Onsen. The traditional architecture and facilities were lovely. We found the service to be excellent, and the breakfast is worth having, especially if you're having a day skiing. Loved the Onsen and the view from our room.
−Would love to see a drying room for your ski gear. For those days where you might need it.

“Beautiful place, welcoming and in a great location.”
+We knew this was a 2 star traditional stay so didn’t really know what to expect but we had lots of space for 4 of us, very cosy beds and the owners were so friendly and welcoming. The onsen was great in the hotel too.

“Traditional Ryokan right next to the main Onsen!”
+This is a beautiful Ryokan with the cosiest doona to peacefully sleep off a big day on the slopes. The traditional breakfast was so nourishing and amazing, set you up for being very active on the mountain. The staff were super lovely and helpful and we were able to leave our bags there for a later departure. You are in the beautiful part of the town where you can easily explore the onsens and wander the windy streets.
−It’s a little bit of a walk to the slopes but you are also right next to the main Onsen and the main strip of town where you can go and get delicious food. So worth it really! Unfortunately we were woken up by loud drunk Australians (being Australians ourselves this was very embarrassing). PSA to Aussies travelling here, this is a traditional Japanese Onsen village that has seen quite a rise in tourism in the last few years because it is truly incredible. So please respect the locals and the onsens and please stop getting drunk and being so loud at 1am you wake up the street.
