Pros +
- Big rooms, great onsen, super helpful staff, most excellent breakfast, nice shop, love the traditional wood trim in the rooms. Exceptional breakfast!!!
- kind and helpful staff,room is big,great lication for ski
- It could accommodate 3 of us with two beds and a large room with futons on tatami mats. The staff was very helpful. There is a store on the property that has snacks and there are food trucks nearby. The breakfast and dinner were good. It was close to the slopes and near the bus stop.
Cons -
- It was very basic. There is not much in the area if you don’t ski. The food choices are limited.
- The dinner prices weren't listed and they turned out to be more than I expected. (2500 yen per person). It is an older hotel.
- The hotel is a bit dated as it is from the Japanese skiing heyday of 20 + years ago, but it is very clean and ensuite bathrooms were great (though we did have a constant hot water problem). Unless you ate in the hotel restaurant there was no evening meal options nearby, also limited in Shiga Kogen overall, so it's best to have a bigger meal at lunchtime and snacks in the evening. Most days we ate at the Yamanoeki restaurant. Nothing wrong with the hotel's dinner, but as smaller eaters we didn't want that much food. Having worked in a similar hotel myself 30 years ago, I understand this is the typical Japanese destination hotel experience, so not criticising, just making non-Japanese visitors aware. Hot tip....bring supermarket supplies with you.

Directly next to the ski lift and bus stop. Has dry room for ski equipments, ski rental available at the hotel.
The breakfast was good. There was lots of food. The hotel is right next to the ski resort.
The dinner prices weren't listed and they turned out to be more than I expected. (2500 yen per person). It is an older hotel.
The included breakfast was great, though it would be great if there was a little variety from day to day. Staff were fantastic (including gorgeous golden retriever who sought out pats from everyone). The suites were large which was great for a group who benefited from two separate sleeping areas. Comfy beds. Very convenient location next to the Yamanoeki as well as ski in / ski out access (it took a few days to work this out however, overall Shiga Kogen is confusing on first arrival). The hotel's onsen area is amazing, great after a day of skiing. As a side trip visit the Monkey Park! It's a long walk in but worth it.
