Good location for skiing and snow monkeys

Great place, had a very comfortable stay. Good onsen and complimentary drinks and snacks. Ideal for skiing Shiga kogen or Nozawa onsen. Perfect for the snow monkeys. Will visit again.

While I was there, only one member of staff was manning the front desk as well undertaking other responsibilities around the hotel, but a phone was left at the front desk so you could call when you needed assistance. The accommodations were clean and comfortable and enjoyed the retro-feel. The free drinks and snacks in the lounge area were a nice touch and I loved the outdoor Onsen.

The rooms had a classic "Showa era" style, which gave them a great atmosphere, and were quite spacious for two people. The onsen was on the small side but clean and nice, with a pretty outdoor area. There was a lounge area with free drinks, nuts, and dried fruit. It was a decent value. I'd stay there again.

Location is incredible, especially if traveling by train/bus. The hotel is 2 minute walk from station. There is a Lawson's very nearby as well. The staff is very nice, and the hotel was very quiet. They have free drinks, snacks daily in the lounge. I mistakenly mixed up our checkout date and didn't realize until after we were supposed to have checked out. The staff was VERY understanding and they allowed us to book an additional night at the same rate we already had. I would definitely stay here again.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The receptionist is good & courteous, yet the room and amenities are old & poorly upkept, they also need to put a mobile heater in the room to keep it warm. There is a big lounge area with various drink & snack which is convenient but breakfast has to be booked 2 days in advance which is not mentioned in the booking page.

小布施見にマラソンの前泊に利用しました。 温泉でしっかり身体を整えて、湯上がりにはアイスやデトックスウォーター。サロンで心地よくおつまみとお酒を好きなだけいただきながらテレビやゲームも楽しめました。 そして、朝４時の出発時にバナ ナを用意してくださる。施設の老朽化は否めませんが、メンテナンスとおもてなしで申し分ない時間を過ごせました。

ロビーで日本酒やビールが飲み放題♪ 広々とした和洋室あり。

素泊まりでしたがロビーにてアルコール含むドリンクバーが無料で利用でき、おつまみのナッツなども食べ放題でした。和洋室があるので布団で寝るのが難しい海外の方にもおすすめです。簡易的なベッドではありますが、1泊くらいなら問題ないと思いました。もちろん温泉は最高！曜日にもよるのかもしれませんが朝と夜は周辺のお店や施設がほとんど閉まっている様子だったので、湯田中温泉を訪れる際はこちらのような温泉付きのホテルや旅館に宿泊することをおすすめします。

アクセスは湯田中温泉駅から徒歩３分以内と至近です。花火大会がメインだったため今回は素泊まりでしたが２種類の温泉が夜中でも入れ、部屋も広く快適でした。Ｗifiも改善されており部屋でも使用できました(たまに途切れ途切れになります)今回は素泊まりでしたが次回は食事つきで満喫したいです。 この値段で設備や古さに文句はいけないですね
