Nozawa Onsen Azegamikan

Truly one of the enjoyable hotels I have ever stayed at. The rooms are spacious. Beds and bedding very warm and comfortable. I had a good view of the town from the room. The shared facilities were surprisingly luxurious. The staff were friendly and helpful. The Japanese breakfast deserves a special mention. It was copious and magnificent. There is no menu choice but so many dishes of beautifully presented fresh food each morning was a great start to each day. The individual dishes change each day. I chose the hotel for its location close to the walkway to the ski fields. This plan worked well. There was easy access to skiing. There are also many restaurants and bars within a 10min walk. On the way back between the walkway and the hotel you can stop and have some onsen cooked food. A great after skiing treat. Talking of onsens there is a small public onsen about 200m from the hotel. Would love to return one day.
