The offered breakfast for Y1,000 was fantastic. Filling and a range of Japanese breakfast offerings. Location was good, with a bus stop right on the corner of the hotel location. Bus could take us into the city centre or up to the snow lifts but stops at 5pm, keep that in mind. Host was fantastic, always friendly and helpful service.

The proximity to the snow access walkway was fantastic. The local ladies also cook onsen eggs very near to the property. Shannon, the host, was so friendly, and helpful, and made us feel so welcome.

The accommodation is lovely, with spacious rooms, comfy tatami beds, and traditional pyjamas provided. The staff is super friendly and the breakfast is excellent. There's an onsen onsite and other options nearby. An excellent dinner is available at a reasonable price. Also, Tommy's Burger is across the street.
I read that some people commented on the location not being good. I'm not too sure what they were expecting. It's only a 15-10 minute walk from the ski field, and some equipment providers let you store your gear at the base, so it's a pretty easy walk.
I highly recommend this accommodation and would definitely stay there again.

Modern, newly refurbished (with a lift!) yet still keeping to the traditional Japanese elements of a Ryokan.
We loved that they offered a semi raised bed. Bedding was really comfy and our room was really spacious. Didn't have any issues with the in-room amenities at all!
Amazing variety of local breakfasts every morning and great that you could have your own private breakfast area.
Loved the samue provided and that it was refreshed daily!
Onsen was kept very clean with a lot of amenities (spent a lot of time there!)
Discount off ski passes & ski equipment if you're a guest here so you don't need to book your equipment in advance - just get it when you're there using their discount!
Thank you to Yukiko-san and her family for opening their home to us and being so helpful.

Nozawa Onsen was readily accessible by fast train and a bus.
The Village had good amenities including a variety of eating venues.
A free shuttle bus went around the town and to the ski fields every 15 minutes. The ease between getting between the Village, ski fields and accommodation was exceptional. There was even a travellator for going up to the snow and back to the town. The snowfall was excellent particularly as our visit was late in the season in mid March.

Amazing ski resort with great snow and very friendly personnel. Everything worked nicely and the small town center is lovely.
Streets can get narrow so make sure you have parking in advance if going by car. Also check distance from ski lifts.

Beautiful, clean inn with wonderful hosts.
Beautiful, clean inn with wonderful hosts. Great common premises, especially the kitchen, which is great for breakfast (you can buy coffee pods at cost from the host). The futons were very comfortable. We hope to return!
Recommendation for future guests: try to make reservations for restaurants for your entire stay once you arrive (and the inn staff can help) to avoid lining up in cold weather.

Stick to businesses owned and operated by local Japanese.
Stick to businesses owned and operated by local Japanese. Those owned by foreigners are often over-priced with inferior service....sure you might get to speak English, but stay home if that's important...;)

Amazing and cute little village!
Amazing and cute little village! Ski hill is great too (needs a bit more English signage). Be sure to book any of the nicer/better restaurants way in advance! These book out quickly (Aussies book these places out!)

An amazing and authentic Japanese experience.
An amazing and authentic Japanese experience. The rooms were brilliant and the Onsen was next level luxury. Made the whole ski experience a pleasure being just a short stroll from the Yu road travellator access. Highly recommend it
This is a really great place for a trip with friends to Nozawa Onsen. The staff were amazing - they helped me organize everything with booking restaurants and organizing sending my luggage home. The owners are a couple and super friendly - I had a great chat with the lady and she recommended staying at a nearby campsite in the summer. Room was super clean and bed was really comfortable. I also liked the lounge area which is nice for warming up with a coffee or tea after you come back. I would definitely come back here next time.
I enjoyed everything about this stay. The room was very cozy, and their was an onsen inside the guest house as well. The main thing I wanna point out is the service - Kadowaki-san was such a fantastic host, helping with gear rental, recommendations, and general inquiries. It was very nice to talk to as well and very efficient with Google Translator :D. I was in Japan for 2 weeks, and this was by ease the best place I stayed at. Will definitely be back to this place and highly recommend it.
Excellent. I would highly recommend anyone to stay at this property and it has made me think about booking another holiday again to the same destination. Very central with easy access to communal Onsens and restaurants. The Hotel itself has a private Onsen. The staff provided excellent guidance and went out of their way to make me feel welcome and comfortable helping with discounted snow gear rental (30%) and coffees from their attached coffee shop.
We had a wonderful stay at Hahnenkamm. The ski-in-ski-out location was brilliant and the staff were lovely. The staff were particularly helpful with logistics related to luggage and ski gear, and the over-snow transfers from the Nozawa Onsen Liner bus stop were seamless. The breakfast was very decent and the dinner was exceptional. A cheap ski wax service on site was a great perk.
10/10 to the super amazing and hospitable crew. My family and I visited Nozawa Onsen during mid of Dec (we went too early and the ski resorts were shut due to the lack of snow :( we were really sad, but all the staff in Schneider Hotel is super nice and friendly and they have made our stay so much more pleasant!
The interior of the hotel and rooms are super cozy and nice too!
Very clean, high quality well finished Japanese style tatami room.
A few hundred meters walk from Nagasaka Centre and Gondola (the main gondola for Nozawa Onsen ski resort).
Bathroom was shared but you book the time to have it privately. There are two shower/tub bathrooms. There are toilets and hand Nadine upstairs near the bedrooms.
There is a very nice very small sauna.
Nice hotel with bigger rooms than usual in Japan, staff was very helpful. The hotel lives up to its name, you have a great view over Nozawa Onsen from the upper floors. Be aware it’s a bit of a walk to the ski slopes. The breakfast was good, but it’s a Japanese set. Your western options are limited to some cereals, so you better like some fish in the morning. I’d stay again.
The gorgeous family that run this lodge could not have been more helpful.
The facilities are excellent. We had a three person traditional room. It was spacious comfortable and warm.
The lodge is in a central location to the slopes and fabulous restaurants and bars.
The breakfast was exceptional.
We will stay again when coming back to Nozawa Onsen.
Wonderful family-run property! Traditional Japanese style room with an extremely comfortable futon. Beautiful floor to ceiling windows and balcony. The on-site onsen was the perfect temperature. There’s a storage room for ski equipment that dries your ski wear very quickly. It’s an incredible location in the center of Nozawa Onsen!
Everything! Our room was beautiful and very warm. The owners are a lovely couple that made us feel very welcome. We had a wonderful Japanese breakfast there made with locally sourced ingredients.
The hotel is decorated with photos of a pro slalom skier that’s the couple’s son which is a wonderful touch to the place.
what we loved most is the location. It is next to the gondola and rental shop. If you come by car there is a small covered parking nearby, which is great in winter.
The hotel has a small Onsen and a dry room.
The breakfast was nice for adults as they served just Japanese dishes and 7:30am.
Inside looks nicer. Outlook from outside the hotel not so beautiful but once inside pretty nice. We upgraded to ensuite with toilet and sink. Short walk to Nagasaka gondola. We rent our skis from Thanx and left it there after skiing. Very close to the town. Beside it there’s an onsen.
Keisuke and all of the Yasushi staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. From booking dinners to suggesting drinking spots, they went above and beyond to make sure we had a fantastic time. The room was also beautifully styled and huge for Japan!
The absolute best in japanese hospitality. The hosts are lovely, the food delicious (vegetarian), amazing value for money. I will be putting this at the top of my list for the next visit to Nozawa Onsen.
Highly recommended! We traveled with two young kids. It was great experience staying at this hotel. Great location, great accommodations and breakfasts. Definitely come back again! Thank you very much
The location is excellent, right on the main street of Nozawa Onsen. There is a onsen about 50 meters from the front door. Yu Road was a short walk away. Perfect location overall.
The Elizabeth team were wonderful, helping in every way possible- from booking dinners to providing local recommendations. The location is brilliant to get to the slopes.
