Hoshino Resorts RISONARE Yatsugatake

This was a Hotel I’d been wanting to visit someday for a long time.When we finally stayed, it was very family-friendly, and the food was excellent.Even though it was a cold season, we were able to enjoy the pool, so our children were thrilled to experience both winter skiing and swimming.This time we didn’t have enough time to try the Mokumoku Bath, so we’d like to do that next time.We had such a great time that we even made another Reservation for six months later.We’re looking forward to our next stay.Thank you!

We stayed for 2 nights and 3 days for our child’s first ski experience. On the first day, we used the pool. We had forgotten our swimsuits, but it was a big help that we could easily rent them. The wave pool was similar to Tomamu, but only Yatsugatake had a kids’ play area. Our son enjoyed the water slide endlessly. At Tomamu, the hot bath facility is attached to the pool, which felt convenient, but here the entire Facility is compact and Mokumoku-yu (the Yatsugatake hot bath facility) was close by as well, so it wasn’t an issue at all. For breakfast and dinner on the first day, we ate at YY Grill’s buffet; both the quality and variety were excellent, and our whole family said we’d love to come again. At a nearby book café, my husband and children spent time reading while I enjoyed wine tasting next door. Being able to sample small pours of Mie Ikeno Chardonnay made it a truly blissful time. On day two, we signed up for Snow Kids lessons at the Hotel, then headed to Fujimi Kogen Ski Resort in the afternoon. We could rent everything—wears, skis/boards, and boots—which was very helpful for a first-time ski trip. The hospitality from all staff members was wonderful as well, and it became a truly great experience for us.
