Hotel Shirakabaso Shigakogen  

In Yamanouchi's Shiga Highlands, this ski hotel sits steps from the Shiga Kogen Nature Conservation Center and a short walk or drive to Maruike Ski Area. You're also within easy reach of Jigokudani Monkey Park, Yudanaka Hot Spring and Joshinetsu Kogen National Park.

Thirty-two warmly decorated guestrooms deliver practical, ski-ready comfort — think refrigerators, flat-screen TVs, electric kettles and in-room safes. Bathrooms come stocked with complimentary toiletries, hair dryers and bidets in some rooms, while simple touches like slippers and phone access keep stays easy.

Hit the slopes with on-site ski facilities rental, then soothe tired muscles in the sauna. Other perks include on-site shopping, a ping-pong/table tennis area, laundry and free parking onsite — perfect for active, mountain-focused stays.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi keeps you connected, and the hotel offers luggage storage, a safe-deposit box and elevator access for convenience and accessibility.

A full breakfast is served daily (served mornings), so you can fuel up before a day on the slopes or exploring the highlands.
