Great location right next to the Suginohara ski resort. Awesome friendly staff that cannot do enough for you. Would also highly recommend pre booking dinners at the accommodation, the food was amazing.

We felt right at home in the moment we entered the doors. The food was phenomenal, hosts helpful and welcoming, and the location could not have been better. We hope this hidden gem stays the way it is. Perfect, non-pretentious and authentic.

Incredibly friendly hosts in a wonderful location for the Sugi ski fields. Easy to get around with the local bus. Can’t wait to go back.

it was a very familial type of place and really felt at home while I was there. Definitely remote but very comfortable and they’ll help you grab a cab if you have to go into town for whatever reason.

We loved everything!

Tabataya is run by the loveliest family - they were so helpful and friendly. We loved our stay with them! It’s also a few minute walk to the Romance Chair at Suginohara which is very convenient. Make sure you try the traditional Japanese dinner at least one night as it is spectacular!

Nothing. Small detail: the pillows were Japanese bead-style, which we found less comfortable than the soft ones we’re used to.

Great location - only a few minutes walk from the bottom lift at Suginohara. The facilities are basic but effective: the dry room has room for everyone, the bath is nice and hot, the foyer lounge is cozy. Our room was large and clean and had everything we needed. The futons were warm and comfortable. Tabataya is run by a friendly local family. They were patient and kind with my very limited Japanese and helped with discounted lift tickets, food, and information. For anything more complex translation apps worked perfectly. There is dinner and breakfast available on site. The food is delicious Japanese cuisine, including a traditional breakfast. Everything was delicious ( and the portions were very generous, it was much more food than we were used to.

The family that run the ryokan are so lovely and helpful. The meals were huge and delicious. The futon were very comfortable and the rooms large and clean. Easy walk to Suginohara ski field, and the discount passes you could buy at the lodge.

Public transport is a little limited in the area but manageable. The staff at Tabataya were very helpful to explain the bus options. We travelled a little late in the ski season (End of March) and the local ski slope was already closed.

The breakfast was excellent. We had always a variation of Japanese breakfast. Every day a different fish type! The evening meals are highly recommended.

Very good. 3 mins to the lift. Very supportive host. More than best Japanese breakfast I’ve ever had.

The family running the Ryokan provided unparalleled customer service, not only providing advice regarding local ski fields and restaurants but even going as far as to chauffeur me to a restaurant so I could enjoy an Asahi with dinner. Amazing Ryokan, could not recommend more!

absolutely nothing.

Great facility! Hosts were fantastic, and their hospitality was absolutely off the chart!! We were there during fall, and went for a hike up to the falls. Beautiful little area of Japan. I have been to MyokoKogen a few times for skiing, but this was the first time I've gone during the fall season. Sleeping on futon was great! Other guests were extremely respectful of quiet times. Dinner was AMAZING. Definitely sign up for dinner if you want to enjoy some great regional foods: Nodoguru and Tempura Shiroko were excellent.

Nothing. Everything was GREAT!

The Hostess was super nice and helpful. She was ready to give us help and guidance on anything that we needed. I did not know about the buses, and the helped by printing the bus schedule and marking what I needed.
