“Overall would consider staying again”
Good that breakfast and dinner was provided. Dinner was Yamagata beef sukiyaki or shabu shabu; which was great. Family of 5 in an “extended” room where parents slept in the beds and kids on the tatami floor with mattresses in the living room

“Very good hotel with convenient location and great food.”
Was better than I expected. Room was clean, staff were nice, and location was right in front of ski lift - also was very close to a ski/snowboard rental store. The breakfast and dinner was delicious, we had something different for dinner everyday.

“Great location in a beautiful onsen town. Well worth a visit”
Breakfast was not exceptional but okay. They provided a Japanese and Western option buffet, but a very limited choice We opted for the half board option. Dinners were very good with multiple small courses. We were able to select from a variety of options. Sunday night was the exception. It offered the Kaiseki option only
