"Ichiro, the innkeeper, was very kind and even drove us to the snow money reserve and back free of charge. Nice to experience a traditional Japanese ryokan. Highly recommended."
"Impeccably clean, nice hot onsen, super helpful front desk. Cozy comfy beds. We don’t try the food but we will next time because it smelled delicious. *expedia site is WRONG - it’s not a 3 minute walk to ski resort - It’s a 30 min drive."
"It was a great place to stay. The room was clean and spacious by Japanese standards. The bed was very comfortable as were the pillows and the duvet. The location was only a couple of blocks from the train station with shopping and restaurants. Great place to stay! Enjoyed it and would definitely recommend and stay again."
"We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Shiga Sunvalley. Loved the style of the Japanese rooms, it was very clean and the staff were exceptional!
Usui and staff helped up with any questions we had, ski rentals, keeping luggage after check out, shuttle bus information. Would stay with them again 10/10"
"We had a great stay at the Elan Hotel. Chris made the stay much easier by driving us around a bunch. The other staff is just as helpful as Chris. We highly recommended staying here! Thank you for the great time!"
"Location is good, opposite is the ski resort, which has good snow. Overall room was well maintained, public Onsen was nice too. However we came during early ski season, there is barely any restaurants opens. Hotel cafe food is a bit expensive, and not much choice (mainly western). If plan to stay may order half board instead, or tell hotel staff to reserve dinner before 10am"
"The staff are very attentive and most accomodating. We enjoyed our dinners and breakfasts here and all our meals were delicious. A very cozy and relaxing environment. We would definitely return."
