Reviews of Tabataya 2 stars

Very cozy. The host family was kind, helpful and very generous. The meals were delicious and so much food! The scenery in the area is amazing.

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.

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!

We loved everything!

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.

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

Excellent food. Amazing hosts. Great location.

The whole experience was amazing!

Excellent location walk to ski lift. Family run business. Family very kind. Beautiful food. Wonderful Onsen.

Great location to Myoko Suginohara ski field. Very friendly and gracious staff. Amazing food, ate Kings and Queens. Catered well for our large group. Warm and comfortable.

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.

Clean and traditional

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

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.

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

Owners were the sweetest and the food at tabataya was absolutely amazing!

Food, hospitality

Great Ryokan with delicious food and welcoming host family! They will help you with anything you need, including ski pass discount and a drive to the rental shop. I will definitely stay here again if I come back to the area.

Comfortable Futon, Warm room, close to slope and great nearby parking. Friendly welcome!

The location was very close to the ski resort lift and the owner and staff were very kind.
