Outdoor onsen wonderful, especially in snow. Beautiful yukata (robe) to choose from.
Regular shuttle bus to Yubadake until evening to see the light up of hot spring area.
Dinner and breakfast unexpectedly good, with shabu shabu.
The hotel staff was friendly and speaks English. They also have partnership with 2 hotels so when you get there, they allow you to go to the other hotel's hot spring and you can go there in car or their shuttle bus. They have a shared complimentary hair and face care in their public onsen. The bad side is we got a bad wifi signal but the experience was nice.
