“Overall it was great. The staff were very communicative on email and very friendly.”
Location is perfect for skiing and snowboarding. It's smack dab in the middle of Hirafu village and a 10 minute walk to Grand Hirafu slopes, 15 minute if trekking with your snow gear. Short walk to Hirafu intersection bus stop to reach other ski slopes.

“Great for skiing, no view window”
Location near Hirafu intersection, close to everything and the staff super nice and amazingly helpful. Room indors warm, modern and spacious. Equipped with basically all you need for a week or 2 stay. The free of chatge transfer service from Kutchan station is an amazing idea, especially in winter time when already limited public transport gets cancelled a lot.
