Cabins in Minami Uonuma

good value for money. Very practical hotel for ski holidays. located 5 minutes walk from main lift to tracks. hotel rent skiing equipment and takes care of ski pass...we were already skiing one hour after our arrival

The owners were extremely kind and accommodating, and very knowledgeable about caring for dogs. The room was spacious and the grounds were perfect for someone traveling with a dog. It is right down the road from Yuzawa so you're near all of the most popular ski attractions.

Allumeur is a very pleasant family hotel located close to the two major resorts - Gala Yuzawa and Ishiuichi Maryama. It is easy to get to from the Ichigo Yuzawa station via cab (2,500 yen) or via shuttle from Ichigo Yuzawa to Gala Yuzawa and then another shuttle to Hatsukaishi station or a taxi (1,500 yen). The hotel if family owned and the owners are very helpful and pleasant people, with plethora of useful information about the area. They even gave us a ride to the food store the first evening, as we arrived unprepared - 7/11 or Lawson stores are not as common in the area as one might expect. There are limited snacks available for purchase at the hotel. The hotel offers breakfast and dinner, as desired for additional fee. We had dinners four nights in a row, and the food was absolutely amazing - some of the best we have had in Japan. Dinner time is very convenient, as it coincides with the time the ski resorts close plus about an hour and a half to return to the hotel and change. The hotel has a room designated to dry the gear and clothing. It also has vending machines that never run out and are true saviors, as both my wife and I are beer drinkers. There is a ski lift at Hatsukaishi station, 300 meters from the hotel and two stores for ski rentals. The indoor/outdoor hot spring bath is about 10 min walking distance from the hotel. A free shuttle from Hatsukaishi station can take you to Ishuichi or Gala Yuzawa, with much larger lifts and more to do. If a car is available, transportation is much faster and convenient. The hotel has a relatively large parking lot available for guests. Of note, the only reliable places for ATM withdrawal using a western issued cards are the 7/11 stores, but again, not too many of them in the entire area. Overall, a perfect hotel for ski/snowboard fans who's priority is to enjoy outdoor sports.
