Yukemuri no Yado Yuki no Hana (Kyoritsu Resort)

We stayed in a triple Room on the 4th floor, chosen for the location and the building’s age.The Accommodation was clean, and the main areas are efficiently consolidated onto the front desk floor, dining floor, and large public bath floor—streamlined for better or worse.You carry your own baggage to the Room, but I felt a bit hesitant about rolling it along the tatami hallway.The view from the Room overlooked the ski slopes and a Lions Mansion building. The in-room bath has a bamboo blind, but privacy-conscious guests may still mind it.Meals offer selectable dishes and you can order additional items later, so the portions are incredibly generous. We also enjoyed a Japanese sake tasting with Tsururei and Kubota Senju at no extra charge.The large public bath is about what you’d expect for its scale, but there are various types of baths so it didn’t get boring.True to Kyoritsu style, there was late-night ramen and other enjoyable touches throughout.The next day we walked to Yuzawa Kogen Ski Resort; they also provided reliable luggage storage, which was very helpful.Overall there’s little to fault, though it felt almost too optimized—giving it a bit of a business-hotel vibe. A luxurious complaint, though.

Welcomed us at the entrance despite the rain, and even took photos for us while sending us off in the snow. The bath on the top floor offered a great view, allowing us to enjoy a snowy bath experience. The meals were plentiful, beautifully presented, and absolutely delicious! Our Room was upgraded, making our stay even more special. Thank you so much! We will definitely return!
