Iwanai Hotels

"An older property with some quirks, but the location is ideal, and the staff wonderful! The in-room mini onsen a gift after a day of skiing. A close walk to all the fun restaurants and shops of Hirafu, and the ski in/ out access is ideal. Shout out to the front desk team who answered all questions and helped us book a car at the last minute when uber flaked."

"Wonderful property. The only disappoitment was their restaurant which had a few menue items unavailable. "

"convenient ski in/ski out"

"Very, very old hotel. "

"Understaffed. Nearly impossible to get room clean outside of their schedule. I feel bad for their staff. The owner needs to step up and hire more than 3 cleaners. "

"Kitchen bench and serving very easy and utensils good. Good set up. Laundry absolute a gem with washing and drying. "

"Kitchen had all that is required to cook a proper meal"

"I stayed here for a trip to Niseko, which is about a 30-minute drive away. The hotel has some wonderful highlights, but also a few downsides to consider. The Highlights: • Stunning Views: The breakfast was a highlight! The restaurant overlooks a snowy landscape that looks like something straight out of a fairytale. The breakfast selection was also quite good. • Great Amenities: They offer lovely extras like complimentary soda, tea, and ice pops. There’s also a microwave available, which was very convenient for heating up quick meals after a tiring day of skiing. • Atmosphere: I really enjoyed the live music performances held in the lobby every evening—it added a very nice touch to the stay. • Parking: Free parking is available right across from the lobby, though you'll need to find your own spot. The Downsides: • Onsen & Cleanliness: While they have an onsen, the washing area was not very clean, and the space felt a bit cramped. It also tended to get quite loud inside. • Room Condition: I stayed in a Japanese-style room, which was very spacious, but unfortunately, it felt a bit dated and not as clean as I would have liked. Overall, the scenery and free perks are fantastic, but the cleanliness in the common areas and rooms could definitely be improved."
