The accommodation was truly outstanding. The attention to detail in the design of the apartments and in house facilities were exceptional however the reception staff lacked basic training and knowledge which was disappointing.

We had a comfortable spacious room with a view of buildings in the foreground and the mountains with trees changing to autumn colours. It was great having a sitting area with a small table. There are quite a few stairs and no elevator. Everything is impeccably clean. There are free laundry machines to use.

Excellent & simple facilities with everything you need. Lots of stairs, but if you are going skiing you kind of need to be good with that. Staff are extremely accommodating and help you with your luggage. Tengu Sushi & Teppanyaki restaurants were delicious.

Great place to stay

Amazing boutique hotel in a great location near skiing and restaurants. The bed was very comfy, the room was perfect for our family of 4, and the breakfast was delicious - you just pick whatever you want off the cafe menu.

Great place.

Stayed in mid August. Great place and location… only hicups were parking and the uphill distance to the lift. Having to ride bikes up the hill was not great start mid August but the had buke storagd and I would not mind the walk in Winter. Parking was a bit complicated and a bit of a pain to grab things and pack up but location trumped that inconvenience. I just tried to find time in winter but it appears booked out. Location was as a good as I have had in Nozowa - right in the heart of the village overlooking prime Noz attractions.

The location was excellent and the main reason I chose this property. The room met expectations, though I could still hear television noise from another room even in the low season. The building’s layout was unusual but not problematic, though luggage must be carried up a steep staircase. The front desk requires serious improvement. At check-in, staff only confirmed my booking, gave minimal instructions, and provided my room number and password. There were no words of welcome, no explanation of facilities or the area, and no offer of assistance. The process felt purely procedural, with no sense of hospitality. Parking guidance created further issues. I was told unloading from the rear lot was convenient and confirmed I could enter from there, but it was not possible. After repeated calls, staff finally said I had to return to the front to finish check-in. This wasted time and could have been resolved in minutes. Even when I voiced frustration, staff insisted their explanation was correct, without acknowledgment. When I asked for a manager, the staff disappeared without explanation and later assisted another guest. Eventually, I spoke to a representative by phone and completed check-in about 45 minutes after first arriving. At no point was there an apology or gratitude. If the front desk only processes paperwork without warmth, a machine could do so more efficiently while still offering courtesy.

５月に家族で利用して、今回は年寄りの両親の宿として予約しました。 本人らいわく「年を取ると宿で出される料理が多すぎる。せっかく温泉街を宿から出ずに楽しめない。」とのこと。 外食で好きな物を好きな量で楽しめて、夜の温泉街を散策できたと、この宿のコンセプトに合った利用方法でした。 日曜日の夜に宿泊したので、月曜日の朝食を頼もうとしたらカフェが休業でした。もちろん、朝市もやっていません。そのため、部屋の冷蔵庫に牛乳とシリアルをサービスして頂きました。ありがとうございました。 宿は改装されたようで、とにかく快適です。 宿に求めることが、人と違うと思いますが、私の旅のスタイルには最適です。

野沢温泉のランドマークである「大湯」の向かいに立地し、大変分かりやすい場所にあります。 建物は古いと思われますが、相当のリノベーションがされており、特に部屋は今日び風でした。 宿泊時に注意すべきは、部屋に風呂がありません。シャワーがありました。私は家族で外湯を楽しむ目的で宿泊したので、外湯には体を洗う設備とスペースが無い以上、シャワーだけが却って都合良かったです。 宿泊プランは素泊まりでした。ちょうど早朝に朝市を開催していたので、好きな物を買って部屋食で済ませました。ただ、ゴールデンウィークだったことも重なり、夕食難民になり困りました。予約できるなら、予約した方が確実です。
