I stayed for one night.The staff were polite and very kind.The food was delicious, so I was very satisfied!Next time I come to Zao, I plan to book a Multiple Night Stay.The ropeway and lifts were right in front of the Hotel, which was very convenient!
ゲスト 3/23/2026This was my second stay. Just like last time, the hospitality was warm and attentive, allowing me to enjoy my time comfortably throughout. I appreciated the room upgrade as well. The breakfast buffet was incredibly delicious, exceeding expectations. Enjoying it while admiring the beautiful autumn leaves and refreshing morning sunlight felt like the ultimate luxury. I would love to stay here again. Thank you very much for your excellent service!
