Naspa New Otani

Here This is a nice hotel with a good location and a convenient shuttle service. The ski garden is very enjoyable for both children and adults. We stayed in a Japanese-style room with a beautiful view, which made the stay even more pleasant. However, the checkout time feels too early at 10:00 AM, especially considering that check-in is only available from 3:00 PM. Another issue was the futon bed setup. The hotel schedules it at 6:00 PM, but I requested to move it just one hour earlier to 5:00 PM because my child wanted to rest. Unfortunately, the hotel could not accommodate this request. I don’t quite understand why such a simple service request could not be fulfilled. Breakfast was fairly good, although the variety of options was somewhat limited.

We had an amazing time at NASPA New Otani — this hotel is a fantastic choice if you’re visiting Yuzawa, especially for a winter getaway! The staff were incredibly warm, welcoming, and attentive throughout our stay, making us feel right at home from check-in to check-out. Our room was spacious, clean, and comfortable — perfect for relaxing after a day of skiing. The location is ideal for winter sports lovers with ski-in/ski-out access to the slopes and easy shuttle service to Echigo-Yuzawa Station, which made getting around a breeze even in snowy weather. The onsen and bathing facilities were relaxing and just what we needed after spending time outdoors. The buffet breakfast and dinner had plenty of variety and were really enjoyable, with something for everyone. While the hotel is set a little away from town, the free shuttle made it convenient to explore the area if we wanted. Overall, it felt like a perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and superb service — highly recommended!
