Shigakogen Prince Hotel

About this stay

The draw here is the walk from the lobby to the lift line, not a station platform. Rooms come with a yukata robe and green tea set laid out on arrival, a small ritual before or after a day on the Shigakogen Yakebitaiyama slopes. Buffet breakfast, a la carte lunch and buffet dinner run on hotel time rather than village restaurant hours, useful when lifts close early in midwinter. The gift shop and bar fill the evening once boots come off, and lockers by the entrance keep gear out of the room. Couples traveling as a pair rate the location highest, likely for the direct slope access rather than any nearby town. Guests arriving without a car generally rely on a pre-booked transfer or the hotel shuttle, since public transport thins out considerably this far up the mountain.
