MOMINOKI  

Tucked into Nozawaonsen, this compact ski inn sits within easy walking distance of the village center. You're under 10 minutes on foot from House of Oborozukiyo and Kenmei-ji Temple, and about 0.5 miles from Nozawa Onsen Snow Resort.

The unpretentious property offers just eight air-conditioned rooms with flat-screen TVs. Bathrooms come with bathtubs or showers, complimentary toiletries and hair dryers; note the front desk is staffed only during limited hours.

Complimentary wireless internet and ski storage make it a practical pick for winter getaways. Onsite laundry and free self-parking add convenience for longer stays and snow-day plans.

Complimentary Wi-Fi keeps you connected while on the road; there are no listed meeting rooms.

English breakfasts are served daily from 7:30–8:30 for a fee — a simple, warming start before you hit the slopes.
