Nice village style ski resort.
Nice village style ski resort. Not busy except for the weekend, which ended up a long weekend as it was the Emperor's birthday on the monday. Always good to check public holidays when going to a ski resort and arrive on a Sunday afternoon.Guest review byChristianAustralia - 8.0
Lots of snow during our stay in December. Great skiing.
Lots of snow during our stay in December. Great skiing. Ideally stay around ski lifts so its easier to get to the lifts.. Just be aware to choose a sunny day to take the ski lifts to view the Snow Monster! Takes around more than 1 hour to get on the ski lifts. Many tourist and queue is long. You wont be able to see much if the weather is bad. Never short of snow in Zao Onsen. Nice little village with Lawsons, Family Marts to get your usual Japanese stuff. Limited restaurants but can get by with simple meals. If you want to get to Yamagata City its only 30 mins away by taxi. You have a choice if you want more varieties.Guest review byMengMalaysia - 8.0
In the summer, Zao is very quiet during weekdays.
In the summer, Zao is very quiet during weekdays. It rains almost every day, so it's advisable to pack quick-dry clothes and sturdy shoes for walking uphill and downhill. If you prefer fruits and vegetables, make sure to bring some with you, as there's no fresh market in town and the only local convenience store doesn't offer many healthy choices. If you happen to encounter a serow, don't make the mistake we did by running away thinking it was a hyena—quite silly of us!Guest review byNANTANAThailand - 8.0
Zao onsen is a lovely getaway in the Japanese mountains.
Zao onsen is a lovely getaway in the Japanese mountains. Mostly tailored to skiers and snowboarders though, with the many hills and ski facilities. But it's also a lovely place for a brief visit if you want some relaxation and onsens. We visited mainly for seeing the Zao Snow monsters and relaxing at a nice hotel. Unforuntately the Snow Monsters had already melted when we were there, and only one cablecar worked going up the mountain, so there was a huge line. The town is cozy with a few restaurant options. We did not ski and stayed for two nights which was just the right amount of time, as there's not that much to experience in the town, other than ski, visit onsen and take the cablecar (if it's working properly)Guest review byCamillaDenmark - 10.0

It's good for a few days of hitting the slopes and had a surprising number for eateries compared to some of the other onsen towns. The juhyo (snow monster) is an interesting sight (depending on the weather) especially since you will have to go right to the top of the mountain to see it. It has a night viewing session depending on the season for the juhyo also. And if you're driving, Yamagata town is just a short 30mins drive down the mountain and you'll have more eateries to choose from.Guest review byEdMalaysia - 10.0

I stayed in Zao Onsen in mid October and had a beautiful time absorbed in the energy of the mountains and blown away by the ‘koyo’ autumn leaves 🧡 In the off season, it proves a serene escape to soak in the onsens, and take in the clean air and stunning views on various hikes. I can only imagine how much fun it would be when covered in snow!Guest review byTamsynAustralia

- Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.1Wonderful - What previous guests thought, 380 reviewsThe facilities are well kept. Love the old Japan hotel feeling with clean, comfortable and unpretentious decorations. A car stop at entrance plus a close by car park in addition to the bigger car park. Staff at check in is professional and at breakfast are great. At dinner, food was nicely presented and it is also a pleasant experience with some selection of sake. Sofa chair in the room we booked extra for was clean and nice! Thank you.Guest review byKa ChunGermany
- Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.2Wonderful - What previous guests thought, 38 reviewsAbsolutely amazing. The hosts are the loveliest people and really welcome you into their home. They take a lot of effort into making sure that you're enjoying your stay in Zao Onsen. They show you the layout of the town and give great recommendations for various activities that you'd like to do. I felt really cared for. It's a true authentic Japanese experience. Highly recommend!Guest review byvanessaAustralia
- Scored out of 10, guest rating 7.4Good - What previous guests thought, 98 reviewsLocation is super close to Sunrise Slope so we could just come back from skiing to the hotel via this slope and of course start our day immediately. They had a big place to put on or take off your ski gear with heaters so it was comfortable. The staff, although very quiet, did their jobs quietly. Pick up service was available at most times of the day so it was rather convenient.Guest review byValerieJapan
- From $157.06 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.6Excellent - What previous guests thought, 65 reviewsLovely, comfortable hotel. Excellent location within walking distance of the village and ski slopes. Beautiful view of snow covered trees from our room. The staff were so friendly and helpful, transporting us to the village when the snow was too heavy to walk. Highly recommended for a stay in Zao Onsen. Thank you.Guest review byVirginiaAustralia
