Hotel Nozawaonsen dengan Bar

We stayed in February 2023 for a week's skiing. The people at St Anton – which is family run – worked hard to give us the best stay; from the staff in the hotel and restaurant; to those in the public cafe downstairs; and not to forget the friendly and helpful staff in the hotel’s equipment hire store located at the ski base area. The hotel rooms are quite small, but that was OK with our being focus on skiing and enjoying ourselves up and down the mountain. Despite their size the rooms were very comfortable though! St Anton’s hospitality shone through when we arrived by bus at about 2 AM after flying into Tokyo earlier in the evening. The hotel is too small to have a staff member attending the front desk at all hours, and so we were welcomed with a detailed note about how to enter and where to find our room. Nothing could have been simpler! Breakfast was a foodie heaven, with a set Japanese menu changing each day – smoothie, salad and soup, followed by an egg dish (omelette or quiche) and home made breads served with the hotel's special and tasty Nagano honey and jams made from locally grown produce. Location, location is the absolute asset of St Anton – we were within metres of several Nozawa’s famous public onsens (and the hotel has its own), many restaurants and shops and just a short walk to the moving walkway to access the ski base area. You couldn't do better for a fabulous central location. Despite its centrality there was absolutely no street noise. While our incoming bus dropped us directly at St Anton because of the late hour, the central bus depot is within 200 metres and easily walked if arriving or departing during the day.
