    Great location down the hill from Akukura Onsen lift. Perfect ammenities for skiers/boarders - with a place to store gear at the entrance and a dry room downstairs for boots and wet clothing. A simple onsite bar was convenient as well as a homemade pizza offering. The complimentary western breakfast was a great way to start a day mid skiing. Room was plenty spacious and loved having an onsen on-site. Staff was warm and welcoming! Highly recommend.

    Vending machine didn't accept the new notes, and sometimes the coffee urn was empty.

    The place has been updated since last time, looked nice and fresh! As usual, a good place to stay, great location, hot breakfast and comfortable room. The onsen is very convenient. The staff were friendly as always.

    Some of the staff were excellent and appeared to work hard, others seemed just a bit too casual & laid back. The staff that live onsite apparently have tiny sleeping quarters & nowhere else to congregate when not working, other than in the same spaces - lounge/bar area - as the guests. They could get a bit rowdy after dinner with a few drinks on board. This only affected times when guests were also using the lounge area. They also share the same onsen facilities as the guests.

    Breakfast was pretty basic but adequate - things were sometimes a bit slow to be topped up. Could have done with more fruit. The pizzas looked and smelled great and despite being advertised as only available on certain nights, we were told they were in fact available every night. We booked village restaurants for all bar 1 of the dinners that we had in Myoko and intended that night to order the pizzas, which had smelt amazing when we were having pre-dinner drinks there on other nights. Unfortunately we only found out about 6:30pm on the night we intended to stay in, they were short-staffed so weren't offering the pizzas that night. It took us a while to find a restaurant in the main street to be able to fit us in with no pre-booking. Would have been good to have a notice up about that earlier in the day.

    Fantastic stay at Morino! Would definitely return. The rooms were very spacious and comfortable, Netflix on TV (a must with kids!), awesome breakfast, great bar and common lounge, lovely indoor/outdoor onsens. We also loved that we could leave our skis up at Myoko Sports overnight so no need to walk up/ down with them (not that the walk is very far - 150m tops) Will definitely be back!

    Breakfast rush often meant items were empty and staff struggled to keep up stock so things were often empty. Was a nice basic ‘buffet’ style though. I thought we had our own bathroom when booking but when we got there realised we did not. Might have been my interpretation when booking though (although I usually pay attention to that). The shared bathroom/ onsen was good though. The dry room was too small. Often having to compete for space meant snow gear often wasn’t able to dry properly and other guests often moved our gear to make way for theirs.

    Good location. Pick up / drop off from train station. Breakfast was included. Room was a reasonable size. The onsen was good (although temperature was really unpredictable). We stayed in for pizza one night as there aren’t too many eating options in the village. The pizza was really nice (although we had to wait (literally) 2 hours for it) and the availability can be hit and miss (it was snowing heavily one night and windy so thought we’d stay in but we’re told when ordering that the ’chef’ wasn’t working that night. Just meant we had to go and play in the snow.

    The walk up the hill to the ski slopes. More hooks or somewhere to hang wet towels would be good.

    Comfortable rooms with view of the mountain. Good beds. Room with toilet was good. Great onsen with outdoor onsen surrounded by snow. Ping pong table was a hit with the kids. Massive breakfast buffet. Good selection of games. Delicious pizza, good bar on site. Staff especially Miyu was really kind and helpful with all our questions, and Jeff was great too. Thanks guys.

    Heating in the room was slow to reach a comfortable temperature, we turned off the heating during the day and when leaving the room for dinner but it took forever to heat again and barely enough to feel warm. - The shower was leaking, it was quite a mess in the bathroom

    The location was great, even if it was a pain to reach the ski lifts with ski boots due to the steep road. You are still at max 10min walk from most restaurants. - Breakfast was good, a bit repetitive but you have the choice between cereals, yoghurt, bacon and eggs, bread, etc. - Super friendly staff - Happy hours - The tennis table
