“As an editor, I'm genuinely impressed by this hotel's prime location; the ski-in/ski-out access to the gondolas is a real advantage. The spacious rooms and mountain views are a definite plus, but the exceptional hospitality and fantastic food-including accommodating vegetarian options-truly stand out. Add to that the relaxing onsen experience, and you've got a memorable stay in Yamanouchi.”
