Kodama is right beside the Ichinose Ski Resort bus stop. Ski rental and ski lessons (Ride Shiga) are just across the hotel.

It is very convenient to ski, ski-in, ski-out, and rent skis. Although the quality of the skis is average, the price is affordable. You can exchange ski tickets across the street. What I am not satisfied with is the breakfast, which is too American. There is nothing to eat, and there is no food after 8:15. I stayed for several days and the bacon was gone every time. The good thing is that the dinner is very rich. The dishes are changed every day. There are beef and hot pot. The taste is satisfactory but the quantity is large.

The impression of this hotel is very special. The old man at the front desk is very friendly. Although we don't speak the language, he still tries to help us solve the problem. The location of the hotel is very good, ski in and ski out of the ski resort.

The hotel facilities are relatively old, and the only difference is that it is located next to the Ichinose cable car. The hot spring is only open in the afternoon, and the breakfast is average. It is not recommended.

The hotel is ski-in and ski-out, and the rented Xiaoheban ski equipment is also cheap. The professional ski equipment in the ski shop opposite is 4 times more expensive. You can rent shoes at the hotel and powder snowboards across the street. The hotel dinner was great, different every night, and the hot spring temperature was very good, but it was boring at night. There are few people from mainland China in Shiga Plateau, but there are many Chinese people. Then you can take the long-distance bus from Nagano Train Station to the door of the hotel and get off at the Ichinose Ski Resort.

First of all, the two old men at the front desk were the worst. I was very impressed with the detailed explanation. When we met first thing in the morning, there was no greeting, and I was left wondering where to put my ski shoes. In response to the question, shoes are a room! And looking from above. picture? Can't you put it on the board? When I hear that... it makes me cold. He said it simply. The heating in the ski locker doesn't seem to be working, so tell me first! That's what I thought 💢 There's no refrigerator or safe in the room, and my grandmother's part-time job when I eat? Well, I work too late...even when I ask for alcohol, he doesn't come. Furthermore, the sashimi that was lined up was dry, and the miso was lukewarm...😭 I don't even take a bath in the morning. There were no shops and the whole hotel was dark and cold. It was really frustrating, and my memorable ski trip at the end of the year turned out to be the worst accommodation I've ever had in my long travel life. I'm sorry.

Second visit and booked directly with Hotel Kodama. Great value for money for 3 adults in 1 room with ensuite facility. Breakfast and dinner included. Dinner was particularly good with a rotating menu every 4 days. Very Japanese and traditional, and lots of it! Staff were very friendly and helpful, and appreciated out attempts at Japanese conversation. Hotel would have been a happenind place in its heyday, unfortunately it does look run down and seats in the rooms could do with replacement. Otherwise, it was clean and tidy, well located with the Nagaden bus stop just outside, and a ski rental hire place opposite. There is a convenience store 10mins walk away which was useful (open til 9pm), however there was no bar fridge in the room, which made us improvise on using the window sill as the fridge (worked a treat given how cold it was!). There were lockers provided for your skis/board, there was an ice maker/fridge on our floor, as were the clothes washer and dryer (coin operated). All in all, a very comfortable stay, close to amenities and ski ticket office, and ski runs (both at front and back) - so pretty much ski in/out.
