Yuzawa New Otani Hotel

Onsen is very good .Breakfast is good and variety.Service is good .

nothing

The hotel itself was relatively close to the train station so walking is feasible but if you are there with your own snowboarding gear it might be worth phoning the hotel and notifying them you want to take the next shuttle (every 20 mins). The room was very good value for the price and season (4 person traditional Japanese style room during ski/snowboard season) and while the room was showing signs of aging, the shower and toilet was newly renovated. There was a heater in the room but no aircon so opening the window to cool room was sufficient. The shuttle service is very convenient when carrying snowboard gear to and from the train station as the free shuttle buses to the resorts are at the station. The hotel was located very close to the west main street of restaurants and 7/11. The restaurants are not westernized like in Niseko so can work out slightly cheaper and more atmospheric. Included breakfast was Japanese style buffet so felt healthy and had plenty of choices. The onsen/public bath was included in the price which made it super cheap and was fairly modern, clean and spacious. The staff were super friendly and fairly proficient in English.

The traditional style Japanese rooms were aging so it was a bit strange to only renovate the bathroom area only.

Modern style, room is spacious, clean & new.

Quite far from metro station especially when going along with big luggages

Very friendly staff, close to the location and there's shuttle bus stop for the few big ski resorts. Very comfy room and great onsen, nice breakfast!
