Nozawaonsen Nozawa Onsen Snow Resort Hotels

"I will be up front, this is an older property with some older sensibilities, not everything is pristine and glistening and new. What you do get however is one of the most charming bath houses, set against a backdrop of stunning mountains. It is a family run business and they will and do go the extra mile for their guests. I cannot reccomend more than if you are going to see the snow monkey park nearby that you stay here, enjoy the fantastic ambiance, a thoroughly musical breakfast and some of the best and kindest owners you could ask for. "

"I love everything about this place. The atmosphere, beautiful hot springs, very nice host. Checkout was smooth, food was delicious "

"Very nice and spacious. Great view. Love the tub with hot spring water in the room."

"They, the staff, exceeded my expectations . Courteous, helpful, kind and pleasant are words that I would use to describe them. Everyone greets you with a bow and civility, right down to the hardest workers in the hotel. For that, i will surely come back. My stay at the Prince Hotel East was worth every yen and then some. I originally was suppose to stay at the Sunvalley Hotel, in Shiga Kogen. I lost my reservation there due to payment issues. I was hesitant about coming to the Prince Hotel. It was my first time. The room i stayed in was probably one of the best i have seen for the price. The next time I am in Shiga Kogen, i am staying at the Prince Hotel East, without a doubt."

"Everything was great, staff was absolute class and helped us out whenever we needed it"

"Its more a backpacks accommodation then a Hotel. The food provided in the morning was a joke at best. A doggy bag with bread buns that you have to heat you your self. Thats it. Rooms are old and the bathroom smells like s&@$. The two young staff were helpful and speck english. The public bath was good as well. The place needs to be refurbished into the 20th century. Sorry to say that. We read some comments by other explaining that it was traditional and all that but its very old and dated. Food sucked. "

"Second time using Nozawa Dream central. Location is excellent. Staff ALWAYS go above and beyond to help. Special shout out to Cora! Extremely helpful! Staff also understand the nuances to blending the Japanese +/- western resort experience. Rooms are traditional tatami style, so just be aware after a few days of sending it, our lumbered western bodies may take a hit getting up and down from the mats. Bathrooms/showers are shared - gets very cold down there. Coffee and tea station all provided for. No breakfast during this season's visit. But that's not a deal breaker. "

"Super hotel just five mins walk from the train / bus station. Staff very friendly and helpful. Bathroom is probably the smallest I have ever been in but worked ok and even though the showerhead was a 50p temu plastic one, it was the best shower of our trip. Included food was more Japanese based than European but we managed. The Onsen was very nice too. We did message the hotel months in advance asking if the half board food had vegetarian options and did not get a response but presumed it would be ok as it is a heavily patronised tourist area. When we got to our designated table we were faced with two plates of raw meat. There were few veggie options and even the tofu looked like it had minced beef in it. But it is quite a Japanese style hotel rather so we rolled with it. As you do. "

"Great location friendly staff "
