    The location was convenient, right by the ski lift and rental facility. The owners were very communicative and lovely; they provided helpful tips and travel logistics. The facility was clean, tidy and well maintained. The homemade breakfast was tasty, well-balanced and nourishing, a highlight of the stay. Signing up for the private baths was easy. Overall, really enjoyed our stay.

    It’s at the top of a hill which makes going out with a toddler challenging, breakfast was pretty basic and didn’t add value to the stay.

    Clean, close to the lifts at the top of the hill, great private onsen, lovely owners and comfortable beds.

    The couple who run Oyado Tamayura are delightful. The hot baths after a days' skiing are AMAZING. The location of the guesthouse - right next to the main lifts and a short walk into town for restaurants etc couldn't have been better. And Nozawa Onsen was just perfect for us - the village is typically Japanese with so many options for meals. The scenery amazing. The best five days of our whole stay in Japan.

    Absolutely incredible stay. The owners were so lovely and helpful with anything you needed. Facilities were great and the private onsens were great after a long day skiing. The lodge is pretty much a ski in ski out. Its just a short walk from the ski storage room at the accomodation to the snow. Breakfast was great. Room was perfect, clean and spacious. I wish I could rate this accomodation higher than a 10. Was genuinely incredible and for a very fair price. Thank you for such a great stay. I will be back!

    Everything was great. I didn't have the provided breakfast as I like a slow start to my day and breakfast ended at 9am.

    The hosts were very friendly and worked hard to keep this accommodation clean and in good order. The room was modern and quite large. The proximity to the gondola was fantastic. I liked being able to book the traditional bathing facilities for private use. Having a warm soak at the end of the day was very relaxing. It was useful to have a fridge and kettle in the room, with communal microwave to prepare snacks / instant meals when I didn't feel like going out for dinner.

    Right next to the Nagasaka gondola, Tamayura is perfectly placed. The hosts are extremely helpful and friendly, and made us a simple but delicious breakfast (much better than many other ski lodges we have stayed in) each morning. The private baths were also excellent after a hard day’s skiing - I would recommend this place to everyone.

    About the only thing that would make the property even better would be a private shower however the shared facilities were always clean and available when needed and as said the onsens were outstanding!

    Fantastic location at the foot of the Nagasaka Gondola, wonderful hosts who really look after their guests, Kazu and Kana really made us feel at home from when they picked us up from the bus terminal to dropping us off! The room was spacious and cosy and the bed was comfy, there was also a choice of pillow depending on your need! Good selection of western and Japanese food for brekky and the dining area was really cosy, a great to spot to watch the snow falling and check the snow conditions from. We loved loved the in-house onsens which you can privately book, they were so relaxing and therapeutic after skiing all day! Would definitely stay again!

    The only thing that in my opinion left something to be desired was the lack of private showers in the rooms. Nevertheless the shared shower was always clean and cozy.

    This is a lovely small lodge. It’s simple but the rooms are spacious and light and clean. Breakfast was nice. The Japanese baths are lovely and easy to book . Location for ski access is brilliant and the family who run it are really nice.

    The location is perfect for skiing: the gondola, ticket office, and rental shops are all a very short walk away. The hosts' hospitality was truly outstanding: they went out of our way to make us feel comfortable and welcome in every way possible, and helped us arrange our travel logistics and dinner reservations. I wish every place I stayed was so welcoming!
