Real Japanese Hospitality

10.0

The place has a very relaxing and charming mountain lodge feel with a beautiful view. We enjoyed authentic delicious Japanese meals which were cooked by the son of the owners and they were genuinely hospitable. We felt completely taken care of.

Guest review

8.0

Amazing price-quality balance and the only completely Japanese ran and owned accomodation in Madarao (or so we've been told by all the Australians there). The western breakfast was good, the beds soft and the family running the place an amazing example of Japanese hospitality. 🤍🇯🇵 You're also brought to the ski lifts and taken back and forth to the Iiyama train station (20min one-way drive) down in the valley with direct shinkansen service 2 hours from Tokio 🗼 with all your luggage - all included!

Well located guest house with friendly staff and good food.

9.0

Well located guest house in Madarao. Staff were excellent and very hospitable. Lift to/from the main ski area each day as required but we often walked as it was so close and easy. We were picked up from and dropped off at local train stations (Myokokogen and Iiyama respectively) by a staff member. Food was good particularly the one dinner we had at Maroudo. Onsen was a good temperature. Highly recommend.

Toilet/bathroom was not close to the rooms we had but this was a very minor inconvenience.
