Showed up to stay in the traditional japanese room. There was no hot water anywhere. Shared bath, no proper window and just a carosene heater in the room. Skiing was awesome. Post ski sleeping- not so much

The rooms did not look anything like the pics. The actual rooms are smaller & have green tatami. No floor chairs as pictured but you get cushions. Maybe they have halved the room size over the years to make more rooms? The rooms weren’t bad, I still would have booked it but they just weren’t as pictured. No tea or hot water in your room but there was tea & hot water dispensers on each floor, but the tea was either really weak, didnt work properly or needed to be refilled as it was just hot water with a couple of tea leaves in the bottom. We did try both floors dispensers. It wasnt fixed the 6 days we stayed. Onsen is closed between 9-3pm for cleaning & the heaters in the rooms don’t work between those times. There’s no elevator so if you have heavy big luggage & can’t carry it yourself ask for a lower room. The hotel has everything you need though! Miwa san dealt with foreign guests & she is lovely. Explained about resorts & busses and gave us discount coupons &maps for the resorts we wanted to go to. Theres a folder with info in the room about attractions& all the bus times. There’s a drying room with locks for your ski & snowboard. It’s great location in the middle of the street with all the restaurants& shops around. You can easily walk to the bus and down to Akakura onsen resort. The indoor onsen uses natural water you can see the minerals floating and don’t get too hot with the windows next to it. There is yukata, rooms are warm, coin laundry and free massage chair.

Hidden Gem in Myoko
We had a fantastic stay at Hotel Senke. The staff were wonderful and so helpful. It was so nice to stay in a traditional Japanese hotel with an Onsen- so relaxing after a days skiing

centrally located but noisy and old
The best part of the Hotel Senke is the main street location in Akakura Onsen which for the first night was also a disadvantage as we discovered because we were in a room facing the street and had practically no sleep between midnight and 5am because the snow clearing machines were making constant loud noise. Fortunately the hosts moved us to another room away from the street which was much quieter, although not totally peaceful. The room was small and had no bathroom or toilet so we needed to go outside the room to use the communal toilets or showers in the hotel onsen. The onsen was clean and hot which after a day's skiing was essential. We tried the Japanese breakfast one night but at 1500Y per night we could eat far cheaper and better in one of the local cafes. The hotel was old and for the price I felt it needed an update to modernise inclusions, sinks, bathrooms, carpets and common areas. The drying room and ski storage was functional and worked fine The WiFi was very slow and didn't work at all during peak usage times and not inside our room. The hosts were friendly and accommodating and spoke enough English to be able to answer all of our questions.

Stayed for 6 nights on tatami so if you have back issues you might want to find somewhere else with western beds. Noise from the street could be heard in the room especially when machines clearing snow nothing ear plugs cant fix if your a light sleeper. Staff very friendly and accommodating. Location is excellent. Both western and Japanese breakfasts good and filling.

Small room, small shared bathrooms. Few shared was
Bathrooms didn’t even have soap. Wash areas were dirty. Walls were thin and you can hear your neighbor talk at midnight while you try to sleep. Small rooms.
