"The Lotte Arai Resort exceeded all of our expectations on our recent 2 day getaway to the mountains. We only learned about this resort because it was affiliated with the Ikon pass, but we will certainly return for our next snow adventure in Japan. The location was beautiful and less than 2 hours from Tokyo by shinkansen. There was a convenient hotel shuttle that provided door to door service from Joetsumyoko station to the hotel. The check in process was flawless. We stayed on the 5th floor of the Lodge building in the most spacious hotel room I've ever encountered in Japan. The beds were extremely comfortable and the room conveniently connected to our kids room next door. Restaurant reservations were a snap to get online. The Japanese restaurant AKIRA had both an extensive Japanese buffet for breakfast and a tasty local set menu for dinner. Restaurant HA NOI was fine but not up to US standards for Vietnamese food. The ski/snowboard rental process was quick and easy. We were able to reserve snowboard lessons online without difficulty, and our friends were able to join the group lesson with only 1 days prior notice. The Village Station food court had modern Japanese standard fare that hit the spot after a busy morning on the slopes. There were so many other nice details provided at Lotte including: the Christmas Market where we had a nice Irish Coffee, the Christmas Cake, the pool table and darts, and best of all, the Onsen."

"Very helpful staff, comfortable accommodations, exactly what we were looking for for our family! Thank you!"

"We loved our stay at Wafu Pension MIYAZAWA! The staff were super friendly and helpful, great breakfast and dinner options, ski/board gear hire, easy 3 min walk to main gondola, cozy rooms and everything you need for a snow holiday in a traditional guest house setting! "

"it’s accessible location there’s convenience store near the hotel, staff is friendly. room is old but clean only disappointing is the bed and the pillow is uncomfortable."

"It was a clean and functional stopover hotel in a smallish town at a shinkansen transfer station. Does have restaurant and public separated baths for nice soak after a days travelling. Staff were nice and friendly. I would go there again if in the area."

"The area is very close to the station and onsen, which is a good location. The time of serving breakfast is also perfect. "

"Had a terrific relaxing couple nights. The best beds we've yet had to sleep on. Bedding was super comfortable as well. The included breakfast was great. Western style. Lake around the property is nice to walk, has several good food options. The 7-11 is an easy 10 min walk to get drinks and snacks. And the fellow at the resort gave us a quick lift to the train station for the next leg of our journey. Really enjoyed our stay. "

"Wonderful stay and incredibly kind hosts. Beautiful surroundings and beautiful room. Super clean and well organized. Hope to stay again some day!"
