Ryokans in Yamakoshi District

"Very unique check in experience and service and views are great. The only issue I had was the ac in room cannot be calibrated to cool meaning that the room is excessively hot. Even though it’s cold outside it would be good to give guest flexibility to change to aircon to a comfortable temp in the room. (It is an in room control, but the hotel locks out the function and only allows for hot air to be used)…."

"Room was very clean. Common areas very clean. The staff were extremely polite and helpfull. The food was so good. The onsen was a real treat. Highly recommend "

"The Greenleaf took all the inconveniences of skiing in a resort away from me. Everything was under one roof - ski rentals, booking of classes, onsen, ski in ski out, and the icing on the cake was the incredible breakfast buffet which was included in the price and the supremely personable staff . I would definitely come back. "

"There’s very poor communication from the hotel. The hotel didn’t specify that there are specific timings for the shuttle. After I booked my train tickets and tried to arrange the shuttle pickup, then the hotel told me I had to be at the station at certain time. I had to change my train booking. When I booked the hotel, I booked with breakfast for 2 adults and a 6 year old child. Somehow, the breakfast that the hotel received was for a 3 year old child. The restaurant insisted I had to pay extra for the child because the age was wrong. I decided then that I’ll not have breakfast and only 2 pax will have breakfast. I then asked to sit together while they have breakfast and the restaurant would not even allow me to sit there even though I do not take anything. The mess up and the inflexibility totally spoiled any impression of the hotel. I booked a premium suite with twin beds. Although the room was spacious, the twin beds were just 3 feet which was very surprising for a 4 star hotel. The hotel is located out of the way without any play area so we have to travel to other ski areas even to have fun in the snow. If you want to stay in this hotel, I recommend having a car to access the places to enjoy. I do need to mention some of the reception staff were quite polite and helpful and the shuttle drivers were especially helpful and nice. Overall, I would not recommend this hotel as I’m sure there are better hotels. I would not choose this hotel on my future visits to Hokkaido "

"Everything and everyone was great!"

"Fantastic view, great staff."

"Wonderful hotel with excellent, large well provisioned rooms. TVs connected to streaming services. True ski-in and out via magic carpet; helpful ski valet. Nice onsen, although indoor and smaller it was very private and not crowded. No convenience store on site to purchase basics but able to get drinks and make purchases at the bar. "

"Clean and spacious room. Nice onsen."

"The view was fantastic and the layout was perfect for winter sports."
