The staff members are extremely nice and helpful people. The property being close to the ski piste is very convenient as well as the opportunity to rent the gears from here. On the other hand the room itself was disappointing. It felt like a time travel back to the eighties. For this money it felt for the room is well overpriced

The staff at the hotel were absolutely lovely and went out of their way to help us. However, if you want to feel like you aren’t welcome then this is the place for you. We attempted to eat dinner at the Hotel opposite this one and were told there were no tables available despite there being literally no one in the hotel. We needed up eating at the sports bar where the staff were great but the only people there were westerners. I feel like westerners are segregated in this part of Shiga. Lifts did not run whilst we were there also which was odd when most other resorts had their lifts running. I do recommend the cocktail bar with a beautiful fire and jazz being played live!

We overall enjoyed our time at this hotel. Some notes: * generally good command of English among staff - generally better English at Okushiga Kogen area than lower down the mountains. * rooms were large enough for the price * large fireplace and bar upstairs for apres * convenient ski lockers/place to suit up and access lifts * two good, but expensive, restaurants in house. Restaurants had limited availability per time slot. Booking was essential. * economical meal options v. limited. Sports bar at central station is main option. Supposedly 7 days a week, but closed twice during our 8 day stay. Can catch a bus elsewhere but we didn't. * certain sameness of food up and down the mountains. Try Cafe Rocky at Ichinose Family. * ski in, short walk to lift on way out * Okushiga Kogen is at one end of ski area. No school groups. To get to the far end took us about 2 hours of casual skiing. * fair bit of traversal required to get between resorts * weather was great - even counting a couple of low visibility days. Tons of snow. Low visibility was not such a problem as felt we could trust the snow. * lifts were a little conservative about closure for wind. * bus from "central station" (5 min walk) to/from monkey park. * first bus to Nagano station arrives just after 2 trains to Tokyo leave. * wifi was comparatively good (not obviously under provisioned) * Hotel has lots of extras you can try (sauna/igloo, massage, onsen, snowcat)

Great ski-in ski-out vacation
It was a great ski in and ski out hotel with wonderful staff service (helped us book a last minute sauna and dinner reservation). The dining options in the hotel are expensive and need a reservation but have some other options nearby. Very relaxing onsen. Convenient transport options to both Nagano and the local rail station. Not too busy. Great ski rental shop. Only issue: Our room had two single beds which we had to move ourself together to create a double bed since we are a couple - no room change was available.

Ski in ski out at Okushiga Kogen Hotel
We stayed here for 11 days. The Hotel presents as promised. Definitely ski-in with a short 100m pole or walk to the first lift to ski-out. We selected the larger Deluxe twin share rooms for our group of four adults given the length of our stay and enjoyed the extra space of the Deluxe rooms. Breakfast options are excellent with both Western and traditional cuisine likes well catered for. We did not take up the evening meal option as we did not need the multiple courses. Single course meals were available but at later sitting times so we opted for the Sports Bar located a short walk away. Menu there comprised a selection of tapas-like items as well as more substantial rice or noodle dishes, and any pizza you like so long as it was Margherita (quite tasty). The informal atmosphere at the Sports Bar suited us and we enjoyed a couple of karaoke nights there also. We ski all day every day so have little energy left after dinner for entertainment. But the after-dinner entertainment in the guest lounge was excellent with two different jazz bands and a talented pianist performing during our stay there, as well some impromptu vocal items from the "The Singing Bartender". Facilities are well maintained including the onsen. Games room with table tennis and pool tables was available. Small shop has gift items and a few basic toiletry and "nibbles" items (yea, potato chips). Wireless internet with good speed was available in our rooms.

Lovely hotel, expensive dinners
Lovely ski-in/ski-out hotel. It's at the quiet end of Shiga Kogen which means the slopes are not crowded. The rooms are simple but clean and warm. Service is excellent and we had a good time chatting to the various staff at the bar. The only downside is that the hotel's dinner options are limited and expensive. Pre-booking is required and only sets are available. You're better off eating at the sports bar or the other hotel just beside the property.

Nice hotel with good access to Okushiga Kogen
We had a nice spacious room in the new wing, last along the corridor. As a result, the wifi signal couldn't reach us in the room (ok only at the door.) But thanks to the staff who looked into it for a day, offered a change of room (with wifi preview testing if needed) and finally set up a separate router for us. Thumbs up! The room cleanliness in bathroom could be better and apparently they don't do housekeeping daily. They do change the towels though. Beer available in one vending machine, and price was reasonable. Nice lobby and fireplace. Wifi there was strong and stable. Breakfast pastries were excellent; Japanese breakfast not so great. Probably because the hotel is run more like a European resort feel than a Japanese hotel. Access to ski lift is excellent. And we got brand new 2017 Burton boards for rental. Hotel half board meals were acceptable for the high price, not awesome. But not many options throughout Shiga Kogen area hotels so we're happy with the area that has sports bar and isakaya, and other hotel nearby with Italian and Japanese restaurants too.

コロナ対策できないなら酒の提供をやめるべき
コロナ対策が不十分。和食会場は居酒屋状態で酔っぱらって大声で会話しているのに従業員は全く注意しない。他の客が窓を開けたお陰で風で火が揺れて焼き物に火が通らない。酒の提供をするなら酔っぱらいを注意する覚悟が必要で、その覚悟が無いなら提供すべきでない。

志賀高原の奥に佇む愛すべきホテル
　高天から一ノ瀬の喧騒を抜け 焼額を過ぎると後続車も無くなります。白い道を あと少し走らせれば行き止まり 奥志賀高原に到着です。 　学生時代にスキーブームを過ごした50代の私にとって 奥志賀は特別な場所。30年後、いざホテルのエントランスを潜ると 暖かい暖炉と美味しいお酒 そして手の込んだ料理が私を迎えてくれました。あの時の羨望はさらに輝きを増し 以後足繁く ここに通う様になったのです。 　志賀高原一の雪とサービス。 大人のスキー ヤーだけにお勧めの「格別な」ホテルです。

本館のトリプルルームに泊まりました。 部屋は綺麗で広い。 設備もよい。テレビも４０inchぐらいはあったのでは？ Wifiは遅く、ダウンロード、動画再生は無理かと 部屋のカギは自動ロックではなく、カードキーでもなく。昔ながらのカギです。 駐車場は不足しているようでスキー場の駐車場に止めなくてはいけないかも ラウンジには暖炉があり、そこで３０分のピアノ演奏があって楽しかった。 ランチはカレーなどがあり、ほかにありがちなスキー場のご飯とは違い、 レストランの感じです。値段はスキー場価格ですが、おいしいと思いました。 ディナーはフレンチのレストランにしましたが、 ウェイトレスが研修中のようで、ナプキンがない、パンをおく皿がない 飲み物のメニューが来ないなどありましたが、料理の質、量は十分と思います。 ただ、まわりの人たちはワインなどを飲んで陽気な感じでしたので レストランよりはビストロって感じでしょうか？ モーニングはバイキング形式で席も自由でした。若干混んでいますので 料理を取るのに時間がかかります。オレンジから直接絞るジュースの 機械があり、楽しくおいしくいただだきました。 シャンパンも置いてありました。パン、ご飯などがあり、観光ホテルの 朝食って感じです。 店員さんはフレンドリーで非常に親切です。 大浴場は広く、宿泊人数が多くないため、混雑はしていませんでした。 外の眺めも良く非常に明るいです。また、露天ではないため寒くないです。 ハンドタオルは大浴場にあり、バスタオルのみ持ち込みです。 サウナもあり、楽しめます。 スキー場へのアクセスは良好で、ホテルの前でスキーを履いたり 外したりでき、すぐにロッカーに入れます。 しかしながら、ロービーが２F、スキー場出入口が３Fなので、 到着と出発の際のスキーの持ち運びはちょっと手間がかかります。 お客はシニアの方たちが多いように感じ、落ち着いている感じです。 小さな子供もほぼいなく、若いカップルも少ないように感じました。 大人がくつろいでスキーを楽しむホテルですね。 私は高校生の娘と行きましたが、彼女も落ち着いた雰囲気が気に入ったようです。 みんなでワイワイする性格の人でなければ、中高生でも気に入ることが できるのではないでしょうか。 結論としましては、私の中では志賀高原で一番良かったホテルです。 是非、また、行きたいと思います。 連泊できるようになれればとてもよいのではないでしょうか。
