The facities is a little old but our room is newly renovated and the view from our room is stunning The skii area is beautiful and we loved the skii activites however the dinner and the breakfast was disappointing the food quality wasn’t up to standard it was cold and not tasty

The satisfaction level of the buffet was very high!!

It was a very relaxing and enjoyable time!

The room is very large and clean. The shuttle bus to the airport and train station is also very convenient! The dinner quality is average!

I arrived late at 5pm and was disappointed that the dinner time was scheduled to be late at 7:30. However, the buffet food was delicious. It is better to use disposable indoor slippers.

Great itinerary~

We had a wonderful stay at Minakami Kogen and our children keep asking when we can go back! We stayed 4 nights midweek in ski season with a 5 and 8yo. Hotel staff helpful and responsive to emails. Booking the shuttle from Jomo Kogen station was fast and easy. Staff were lovely and helpful in person too, most spoke English and they had translate as well. Connecting corner room was spacious by Japanese standards (we locked the corridor door which gave us a large suitcase space and room to get snow gear on and off). Food (buffet restaurant) was excellent. Lots of variety and each food had clearly marked allergens which made selection easy (we are pescetarian and don't eat meat and there were lots of delicious options). We didn't have problems with availability of early dinner times except on our first day. Both indoor and outdoor onsen were great. We didn't find the walk across the carpark to the outdoor onsen a problem and it was usually very quiet, sometimes we had the bath to ourselves. My children find some onsen too hot, but the outdoor one was perfect because it had two sections, one hotter and one cooler. Snow activities were excellent. We could generally choose an activity, walk up to the desk and book to do it right away. One of the days we bought a lift pass and used the long 500m sled run which was excellent and it was fun to be able to ride the chairlift even though we didn't ski or board. The kids parks were great too, the tubing and sledding was good fun and never crowded. We did the Takaragawa onsen excursion through the hotel and enjoyed it. (Mixed gender, clothed bath along a scenic river). Overall, this hotel far exceeded our expectations and we really enjoyed our stay. Would stay here again.

I stayed at this hotel for a tour of Ozegahara, and it was very convenient and friendly. We thought the trekking to Ozegahara might be canceled because of the rain, but it was light rain in the morning, so we decided to go ahead with it. We traveled from the hotel by minibus, and by the end of the tour, we were completely exhausted, and even our trekking shoes and the inside of our backpacks under our raincoats were soaked, but it was very helpful that we could use the hotel's hot springs on the way back. The buffet-style meals were also varied, and dinner included sushi, steak, tempura, sashimi, curry, and Chinese food, so much that we couldn't finish it all. Breakfast was also satisfying for both me, who prefers bread and Western food, and my wife, who prefers Japanese food.

My family and I used it every winter. The room is not clean, but having a nursery was the main reason. The kids enjoyed the buffet, and being directly connected to the ski resort was very convenient. I thought it would continue to be an annual event, but I was told that the childcare center is only available for children up to the age of 4, so now that they are 5 years old, they can no longer use it. Preschool children who cannot ski are not eligible for accommodation. Say goodbye to hotels that can only respond mechanically.
