Hotels near Echigo-Nakazato Station, Yuzawa

Our experience with Hotel Angel Grandia was excellent. From the time we made a booking until we checked out. Thank you, especially to Takeuchi San who we conversed with via email months before our stay. We requested dining arrangements that were not included in the room package that we booked with Agoda and it was perfectly arranged for our 2-night stay. Communication at times took a while to get a reply but Takeuchi San made sure he followed through with answers to my questions and every detail that needed to be arranged, including the time of the dinner. The hotel rooms were perfect. It included some bunk beds and each room differed a bit, some had separators while others didn't but the bedding was complete. There's a vending and ice machine on our floor which was excellent, and a Family Mart right in the lobby, we didn't even have to go outside. And indeed, the ski resort was just outside the hotel. They offered lockers at the back entrance to keep ski equipment. We went to Gala Yuzawa on the 2nd day to snowboard, but we were able to rent ski equipment right outside the hotel which was excellent, with no lines so it saved as a lot of time, and got a discount as a hotel resident. We were basically ready to go when we arrived at Gala Yuzawa instead of queuing up in the long lines there. We also had a chance to play in the snow area behind the hotel which was very convenient. The onsen was great. I had a chance to go to both onsens, one smaller and cozier one and another bigger one, both had indoor and outdoor pools with different water temperatures. It wasn't crowded at all when I went at night. The staff was friendly, their English was not perfect but enough to communicate well with us. There was a slight problem with billing but they were able to resolve it the same day. Overall, we were very happy with the hotel and the service. Having said that we had some issues with Agoda regarding the 3 kids that we got confirmation for. And some limitations of their system required us to advance some amount to the hotel, which Agoda eventually refunded to us. Agoda should improve their system as this was their issue, they should not have inconvenienced the customer in the first place. I would have booked direct with the hotel but didn't find their website that easy to understand for international guests. I would definitely return to this hotel if given the chance to visit the Yuzawa area again in the future. We definitely experienced the local hospitality here.

Visited hotel in Autumn Nov 23. Stayed 1 night. Room: Spacious, with 1 shower room, 1 dressing area with sink, 1 toilet room with another large sink, bedroom has a sitting area, full sized wardrobe, and 2 twin beds. The room was quiet throughout the night and we had a comfortable stay. One minor comment is that the mattresses on the bed felt old as they sagged in the middle, leaving you without back support. I slept well nevertheless Onsen: Not sure if spring water was used, but the onsen areas were large, with not just an indoor onsen but also an outdoor one, and jacuzzis in 2 forms (sitting and lying down). Very relaxing after a long drive. Breakfast: Quite a good spread with Japanese options, western options, and fruit, yoghurt w compote and juice / coffee/ tea stations. All in this was value for money for the price we paid

Location is excellent, about 1 minutes walk to the train station, or to the main street, both of which have lots of restaurants. The staff are very helpful, although only 1 lady could speak reasonable English. The rooms are very spacious, and comfortable, although the bathroom is on the old side. Those who used the onsen really loved it, although you have to pay an onsen tax, even if you don't use it. Breakfast is on the expensive side, and even little kids have to pay. However, free coffee/tea and soup are provided in the lounge area. There are lot of lockers, but only 2 washers/dryers. The dryer function is not effective, even after 60 mins of drying, so I ended up hanging the clothes in the room to dry instead.

About five minutes walk from the station, there is a car transfer, welcome drink is matcha, after check-in, leave your shoes and always slippers. I stayed in a Japanese style room, with a bed in a Japanese room, white based, Bright room with cleanliness The hot springs are not so large, but there is an open-air bath The meal is a restaurant, each group, made like a half-private room, and the face of other groups is not visible. The number of dishes Many, but the volume was about that, just good The restaurant has a courtyard and a pond where the cherry blossoms swim. It was quite a number, and it was amazing. In the lounge, after the evening breakfast, there was a coffee service (self service) The employees were all kind and nice. All the employees were kind and pleasant.

There is a 24-hour convenience store near the station, and the location is great. However, be careful as the parking lot is small. The lobby is small and there is a chair fight. I checked in from 14:00 (it is possible if I pay an additional fee), but it was still a little crowded and there was a chair fight. Check-in was given priority, so the check-in time was about 5 minutes. If you don't like the small rooms, you shouldn't come. (The Japanese suite is relatively large because it has two bedrooms) The view is not good. There is air conditioner, but it is fixed to 24 ℃ in winter and is hot. The food was delicious and there were so many, but it was good (however, the breakfast the next day I ate soba at night was hell) However, from 15:00, it is difficult to make a reservation for meals from 17:30. Because it is difficult, Check in from 14:00 will be easier to take. The hot spring was the best. There are three private baths, but the place called ”Iwanoyu” is crowded, and depending on luck on the day you check in (relatively vacant during dinner) ”Iwanoyu” is vacant early in the morning of the next day (around 4:00 to 6:00). In addition, there are ice candy (free) (evening and night) and Yakult (free) (early morning to morning) at the bathing area, and you can eat ”night soba” for free from 23:00. The service was substantial. The room had a coffee mill and coffee beans and I was able to enjoy authentic coffee. The customer service was also good. It happened to be good, but the people in the lobby and the people in the restaurant were good with a clear voice. (There seems to be no other customer service)

Seeing that it’s approaching the snow season soon, so here it comes a very belated review! Stayed here with my family at the start of the year, and we had a fabulous time here! The hotel is very close to the Echigo Yuzawa Station, but shuttle bus is still available (remember to notify them about your arrival time). There was a staff who was really good at English and has helped us a lot, love that we could choose our own yukata! Our room was really spacious and the view was just AMAZING. Our plan came with breakfast (buffet) and traditional Japanese dinner, and they were perfect! Do remember to check out their onsens as there are a lot of options, you may need a whole day just to try out all of them. They also provide ski/ snowboarding rentals as well, but we booked ours at somewhere else and they still let us to put our gears overnight so that we can go straight to the ski resort directly the next morning. Been wanting to visit Hotel Futaba again this year, but seems it has gotten quite full already, so better plan your trip ahead! とても嬉しかったね~ ありがとう！

High cost performance. This time I accidentally hit this hotel. Thank you very much for Ctrip. Before going to Japan, I wanted to find a place where you can ski and hot springs for 2 nights, but whether it is Zao in Yamagata, Asahi in Otaru, or Echigo Yuzawa, the prices are very high, so I have to give up. I bought a 3-day ticket in Ueno and boarded the Shinkansen on the way to Karuizawa. When I was bored, I brushed Ctrip, and suddenly I got a room at Toei Hotel in Yuzawa-cho, and immediately locked it. Get off at Takasaki and change Multiply by. Worthy of a trip. As written by Kawabata Yasunari's ”Snow Country”: A long tunnel that crosses the border of the country comes to the Snow Country. The south of the tunnel is still clear and sunny. After the train passes through the tunnel, there is continuous heavy snow. Different from northern China, the temperature is not that low, with the lowest temperature at minus four or five degrees and the highest temperature at minus four or five degrees. The sky is covered with powder snow, which is the guarantee of the ski resort. Echigo Yuzawa stood out, you can book the hotel shuttle bus, even if walking, it only takes 10 minutes. There is a primary road under the hotel window. Take the hotel elevator down to B1, which is the ski rental counter and the dressing room. You can hang the room account. You can also take the cable car up the mountain on the top of the primary road, and go up to 900 meters above sea level. There are all the routes of the primary road and the intermediate road. Tired of slipping, the hotel's hot spring has internal soup and external soup, this stay again experienced the open-air hot spring in the snow. Very cozy.

Located on a hill a little away from the hot spring town of Echigo Yuzawa, it is quiet and relaxing. The view from the open-air bath on the 4th floor is spectacular. There is an open-air bath with a view in the large public bath, and the hot water comes from the same source as the mountain hot spring, and has a thick, transparent bath. It's gentle on the skin and leaves it moist and smooth. The outdoor hot water is slightly warm due to the wind. Even in the middle of summer, it was so comfortable that you could stay inside forever as long as there was a breeze. The room is on the 3rd floor of Yunosakakan. The testicles are well cared for and comfortable. The toilet has a washlet. There was an empty refrigerator, kettle, tea set, and snacks. The futon was already laid out, but the room was large so there was plenty of space. In fact, I was grateful to be able to go there anytime. It's convenient because you are given two room keys. There is no need to wait for your companion near the bath after taking a bath. Although it is far from the station and hot spring town, you can pick up and drop off at the town or station by car from 8:00 to 20:00. It's about a 20 minute walk from the station, so it's nice to walk, but the downtown area is only halfway through, and after that it feels deserted. All the staff members were very nice. If I go to Echigo Yuzawa, I would like to stay here again.

I went to go to the Gala Yuzawa ski resort next door. The hotel offers a free shuttle bus, just call them, and they drop off or pick up, including other nearby areas. Nice breakfast in a stunning Japanese style room, western style available. There is a wonderful natural thermal hot springs in the hotel, free of charge. Great after a day of skiing. The room was very spacious, traditional Japanese style, everything worked great. The staff were all very friendly, and spoke some English, with the help of an electronic pocket translator. I wanted a late check out, and they charged me around $15 an hour, which was well worth it, as I was able to use the hot springs and take a shower after skiing, before a 5 pm train back to Tokyo, 70 minutes away by bullet train. The hotel also has a 24 hour nice museum about the history, no charge, and lots of other things to do: a library, a piano to play, nightly movies shown, board games, etc. This was one of my favorite stays in all of the world.

There is a slope in front of you and the best location. This time, I used a plan with a ski lift ticket, so it was very good value. The room was a long time ago, but there is no problem because it only sleeps after skiing. The gondola from Naeba Ski Resort to the next Kagura Ski Resort was wonderful. However, it was difficult to have a balanced meal because it was an accommodation plan without meals. Since it was a weekday, there were many restaurants on holidays, and I felt that every restaurant was generally more valuable than the quality. There are two large communal baths, but one of the men's baths was under repair and could not be used, and the only underground large communal bath that was available was incredibly far away. Also, it was dark and lacking in cleanliness, probably because it wasn't cleaned very well, so I didn't want to enter twice. I think it would be difficult to stay unless it was for skiing purposes.
