"The hotel was conveniently located close to the station. The room was comfortable and seemed to be nicely updated recently. A lot of options for restaurants nearby too."
"Impeccable bed and bathroom ❤️ This was the best sleep I had in a while! Large, soft towels. Quality cosmetics and other amenities. They provide single-use, as well as solid slippers for the room. I also liked the futuristic self-checkin/checkout machines in the lobby (we did not use the checkin, but the checkout was a breeze). The room size was very generous for a Japanese hotel. The bed was splendidly, perfectly clean (there were some small spots here and there, but sadly not all guests know to act civilized in a hotel room). This stay was a joy! Five stars, no contest!"
"A nice set-up for a ski-in/ski-out resort. My kids also had great lessons with an English instructor. Getting to Appi Kogen was also quite easy with the buses from Morioka Station. We were also bumped up to a larger room, which was very comfortable, especially by Japanese standards. That was also great. However…..
The only drawback was the very limited food options, especially for dinner with young kids, who don’t eat very much anyway. We live in Japan, so we’re accustomed to Japanese portions, local izakayas, bentos, etc. But this was challenging. It was either spend 20,000¥-30,000¥ for a mediocre buffet, where the kids just wanted a few bites of the simplest food. Or a yakiniku restaurant that would’ve been 30,000¥ - 40,000¥ for a family of 4. High-end sushi spot that would’ve been even more pricey. (The room service menu is quite sad, and again would be close to 20,000¥)
Or, you’re left with getting instant Nissin ramen cups at the convene, which is what we ended up doing the last night. (Breakfast, again, pay steep prices at the buffet, or wait till the bakery opens at the comically late hour of 10:00am, when you of course want to be on the slopes.)
Anyway, I’d suggest packing some of your own bentos, or be prepared to pay. ¥¥¥¥¥¥"
