Very pleasant stay in a cosy cottage with the best owners

Cosy cottage with the most hospitable and kind owners! They were really sweet and ready to help with anything and gave us discounts for the ski passes and onsen, which was very nice. Convenient location, easy walk to the ski lift. Tasty breakfast

Great, beautiful, clean and authentic place to stay in Myoko.

One of the best accommodations we had in our 2 month trip in Japan! The extremely kind host couple looked after us, provides skiing discount tickets and overall provides an awesome, authentic Japanese experience. Walking distance to Suginohara ski resort. In-house Japanese breakfast and dinner is delicious and nutritious, too. Would definitively return when coming back to Myoko. Thanks a lot!

Amazing hosts. Great resort. Delicious dinners!!

Location was near Suginohara resort. Close to bus stop for access to other resorts. The hosts were just so amazing. And their dinners were the best we had…so delicious.

The staff were amazing. Went above and beyond the entire time we stayed and really felt welcomed into their accommodation. Before asking they were always offering to help us get to where we needed and were overall the most hospitable stay we've had in Japan. Breakfast was very tasty and generous and you get a lot of really good tasting food for the price you pay, bother for dinner and breakfast. Couldn't be more happy with our stay.

Incredible, authentic, heart-warming experience

We had the most incredible experience at Folklore Pension. We absolutely adored the owners, Kaoru-san and Shinri-san. Kaouru was so kind and would often offer to drive us to the station if we needed and pick us up. She told us about her favorite aspects of the area and took us to a really cute nature reserve/lake near the house where we learned about all the cool wildlife in the area and got to see salamanders!! They built their bed and breakfast themselves 40 years ago and it shows as it is so beautifully decorated with details of their loved ones and travels, you can really feel how much love and heart has been put into their home. Almost every night we paid 2500 yen each for dinner and as Shinri-san, the husband, is an incredible chef the meals were always WAY above and beyond. Absolutely incredible quality ingredients, amazing portions, gorgeous presentation, different, authentic and imaginative meals every single night. From hand-made sushi platters to Udon-like soups and steak and incredible pork and fish dishes Shinri-san's talent and generosity never ceased to amaze us. The dining room was also decorated in such a sweet way with many instruments and beautiful, cozy details. They always play the beatles vinyl records as we ate and had an impressive supply of different types of japanese beverages to try if we wanted like sake, japanese wine, or nagano apple juice. They also have breakfast which Kauru-san made us each morning. Always incredible omelets with miso soup and other wonderful dishes and salad. Often different kinds of meats and always the option of rice or toast with our meals. Another incredible detail that we loved was the little homemade stone onsen in the bathroom, always filled with relaxing hot water after a long day. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, and also significantly bigger than anything we had experienced prior in japan. There's a beautiful park just a short walk away next to a river.

Cozy place with good food and kind staff!

Family owned and run property, we felt so at home and very welcomed! Father is a chef and it shows, the dinner and breakfast was amazing! And easy after a long day of snowboarding. Very kind people, location was also not bad, chair lift not too far away. We enjoyed our time here and it was cozy!

I really enjoyed my stay at Pension FOLKLORE. I will definitely come back. Thanks to all the staff.

It only takes 5 minutes to reach lift chair 2 when skiing at Myoko Suginohara Ski Resort. The meals are delicious, and the staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful.
