Forest Inn Sangoro
4.5/56 Reviews
Friends booked us in at Sangoro so we could ski in / out... and it truly is ski in/out... not like places at the bottom of the hill where u can only ski in/out if there’s a decent amount of snow. Sangoro is at mid-mountain, so if the resort is open for the winter season, you can ski in / out of this hotel. The disadvantage of being at mid-mountain is that there is only Sangoro there and you can’t leave / get back there from The main village after 5pm. So all your evenings are spent at the hotel. It wasn’t a problem for us, but I think you’d get cabin fever if u stayed there too long. They have a reasonable dinner menu that is mostly Japanese but has a few western and vegetarian options (spaghetti with soy meat and margarita pizza). They have a soft drink machine and soup machine which are free for people staying there (all u can drink). There’s also a pool table, table tennis table, a few games and a massage chair u can use (the massage chair is quite good after a day on the slopes). The bathrooms are Japanese (shared) but you can only use them between 7-9am and 5-10pm... only showers can be used in the morning but they fill up the big hot baths in the evenings. The women’s bathroom is down on the lowest level, so you have to go down 2 or 3 flights of stairs to get there. Men’s bathroom is on the main floor, with the hotel rooms 1 and 2 floors above. There are no elevators, so you need to be ok with climbing the fairly steep stairs and carrying luggage up/down. They have a drying room on the lowest level for ski gear, but someone kept opening the window in the room so it was always very cold in there (no point putting your stuff in there to dry). One thing everyone in our group complained about was the beds and/or pillows... not comfortable at all! I had poor sleep as I had to keep rotating all night or my arm or leg would go numb. The people working at the hotel are really nice. Some of them speak better English than others... we didn’t have any language issues but we did have a couple of people in our group who speak good Japanese, which was helpful for anything complicated. To get to the hotel you have to catch the Chuo Ropeway up to mid-mountain and get the hotel to pick you up in their special car (on tracks to drive on the snow). If you need lift tickets it’s a little cheaper to purchase them from the hotel but you. I enjoyed my time at Sangoro (except the beds), but it’s not somewhere I’d stay for a really long time due to its remoteness (there are really good and not so good things about being isolated on the mountain).
Yoshidaya Ryokan

A few days before the holiday of the sea day, I arrived at this inn to find a place to take Wanko in a hurry. When I was single, and I took my child, and the Zao Onsen ski area came many times in winter as the whole mountain genre map was in my head. I never came to summer, but the child also stood up and came to summer for the first time as a place where the couple could play. This inn is the first time. I imagine that I was so busy at the height of skiing, but now I am working hard with corporate efforts to make pets possible according to the age, and it is an old inn. But it was clean and there was no dust, such as corridors, stairs, and shelves in the room. The staff was also nice. It is full of privileges, such as two meals for 10000 yen per person, and the source of the source, and the three joint baths in the hot spring town are free and the Zao Onsen large open-air bath becomes discount, and it is full of privileges, and it is possible to stay with Wanko It was a super happy inn with Wanko. The next day, I released Wanko to the genre where there was no one, and I was able to solve the stress of Wanko spending in my house, and I had a good trip.

When you think of Zao, you think of ski resorts, and when you think of ski resorts, you think of hot springs. By the way, Zao Onsen is expensive this time of year, so I decided to stay here because it's cheaper. The location is about 20 yen by car from the city, and since Yamagata is in the countryside, there aren't many cars, so it was very stress-free ^^. Oh, I'm not dissing you. So, Zao is completely empty at night, so this time I ate dinner outside and entered the hot springs early. I'm going to take a bath right away. The smell of sulfur is the best ^^ The smell is irresistible for hot spring lovers ^^ As an inn, I can't deny that it's old, but I guess it can't be helped since it's a place where snow accumulates. I went to Zao ^^
