The only negative is that togari is small and remote. There are no ATMs and most of the businesses only accept/prefer cash, so make sure you have enough before you arrive.

My stay was fantastic and the staff were brilliant. I lost my purse on the train to togari and the owner was so accommodating, she went above and beyond to help me until I got it back. The hotel was warm; the bathroom, shower room, and onsen were all cleaned daily. The breakfast was large and tasty (perfect for a day of skiing). The hotel is a 2 minute walk from the slopes and a 3 minute walk from the bus stop, so good location.

I do wish the iiyama bus station was a bit closer or had a more frequent bus to get to the Inn, but this is out of their control!

Some of the most friendly and helpful staff Loved their onsen Proximity to Togari ski resort was awesome, and the shuttle to other resorts was closeby too (beware that there is only one shuttle in the morning to Nozawa and the earliest arrival is 10am) Clean, cozy facility Awesome dry room and storage for ski gear

The location was a little hard to get to. I do recommend trying to stay local in the area, espically if u plan on staying out a little later. If you have a car then it shouldn't be an issue at all. Thank you again for the amazing accommodation.

I absolutely loved this hotel and the experience that came with it. Thank you so much to the owner and her husband for making the trip out there the best ever! They helped with every need and question I had. I also recommend stopping by the bar down the street as they own that place too. The Bartender was one of the nicest guys I've met in Japan. The communication was clear, the hotel was super clean, the price was great, and my favorite was the staff. Thank you both so much for helping and making the trip much easier espically with navigating. :)

I had an excellent skiing vacation at this homestay in Nozawa Onsen. From the moment I checked in, I could feel the meticulous service. The rooms are well - equipped, and the heating is sufficient, allowing me to rest comfortably after a day of skiing. The location of the homestay is perfect, being very close to both the ski resort and the hot spring, which makes getting around extremely convenient. Moreover, the homestay provides a considerate luggage storage service, allowing me to enjoy my skiing time without any burden. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to friends who come to ski in Nozawa Onsen. It offers high cost - effectiveness and an amazing experience!

The property was fantastic but bring lots of cash if you want to explore the town. Many places only accept cash. This includes the ski rentals place which is connected to the resort.

I was on a long business trip in Tokyo from NYC and wanted to get away and ski for the weekend. This was the perfect getaway. The owners are amazing people! The inn is a five min walk to the Togari Ski Resort. My room was very cozy, comfortable, and clean. The whole inn is clean and cozy.

The owner was very kind and attentive. The breakfast was traditional and good.

I loved the traditional Japanese accommodation. The owners are lovely and friendly. It's so close to the ski slope, local supermarket, restaurants and express buses to nozowa onsen and ilyama. The onsen was amazing after skiing all day. No line ups for the lifts.

3 minutes walk to the ski resort, the room was very comfortable the onsen felt nice, but the highlight of all was the staff. The lady host was very nice and accommodating, always tried to help me whenever I needed help. She even sent me off to the door when I left. Will definitely come back! Thank you :)

Very friendly people, and location is great for skiing at Togari. We got breakfast there and it was excellent.

Stayed in January 2025

The first thing to say is that the staff is really friendly and helpful. The location is great, at the heart of the resort, just a couple of minutes walk from the ski slopes. The rooms are simple and comfortable and the breakfast was very tasty. The bath downstairs is spatious and very pleasant and the facilities for skying are very good, with even a drying room for ski gear! It was a great stay!

Super friendly staff that were more than happy to help out. Very close to the ski resort.

The value for money could've been a little better though I understand the price was inflated due to the Dosojin festival taking place the same evening

Lovely staff, lovely traditional Japanese breakfast

The rooms were comfortable to stay with the futons and plenty of blankets to keep warm, there is an Onsen in the bathroom which is wonderful to relax in after a day on the slopes

Location and staff were excellent. Kitchen was a nice touch!
