"Expedia said this hotel has laundry service. However, when we ask the hotel staff about where we can use the laundry, they recommend us go to coin laundry shop which need 9-11 mins walk. I think the hotel info provided in Expedia is not accurate."
"High Accessibility
The hotel is near the Yodanaka Station, it takes 5-10mins walk. If you will drive over there, the hotel will provide the free parking. Also, they were so nice to clean up the snow every morning.
Also, it may take 15-20mins walk to the Shibu Onsen.
For skiing, it can take 30mins driving to Shiga Kogen. It takes 45mins driving to Nozawa Onsen Snow Resort.
Hotel provided a delicious meal and kids friendly. They provided a different set for the kid.
The Onsen is large enough and very clean. It opens for 24 hrs. It was so appreciated as the Onsen will swap for Male and Female after daily cleaning. So, the guests can use both of the Onsen in different period of time but it is not unisex! "
"I came to shiga kogen for skiing. The hotel location is excellent. You can have either 3 mins driving to Yokoteyama ski area or 5 mins driving to central area.
Other than the location, all staff are very polite, patient and helpful. Some of the staff are able to communicate in English and Cantonese fluently.
They have sufficient parking space compared to other hotels in shiga kogen. If you look for some living experience in a traditional Japanese hospitality, this is the one. Make sure your book the dinner as well since shiga kogen does not have many restaurants opening at night.
