Madarao Mountain Lodge, hotel in Iiyama

Located in Iiyama in the Nagano region and Ryuoo Ski Park reachable within 16 miles, Madarao Mountain Lodge has accommodations with free WiFi, BBQ facilities, a bar and free private parking.

Breakfast each morning was amazing. Perfect way to start the day on the slopes. A very short and easy walk to the slopes. Mark and Abe are wonderful hosts and Abe is a wonder to watch in the kitchen! The convenience and delicious food made it difficult for us to want to venture out! The staff are all very friendly and kept the shared bathrooms spotless - thank you. Shout out to Colin for his musical performance on one night of our stay. Looking forward to our next visit!

    Madarao is a small village about 25 minutes away by bus from Iiyama. It is very accessible from Tokyo by Shinkansen. Dinner has to be booked in advance since there are not too many choices. People are very friendly, as Japanese are usually are, and try to accommodate as much as possible.

    The fact that I’m leaving a review at all means that we really loved the place. I’m not the social media type so rarely leave reviews and when I do I’m always conservative so 8/10 is excellent. (Hope it doesn’t bring down your average 😕). Loved the chalet, good size, sparkling clean, super friendly staff and very comfy bed and facilities. Would highly recommend you to everyone. Sigh, missing it as I type this to be honest. Regards Tony

    The igloos in Kamakura Snow Village was very interesting.

    The igloos in Kamakura Snow Village was very interesting. We even built a snowman! Maguse Onsen was a good experience with its outdoor onsen overlooking the Kijimadaira ski area. Wish we had known about the temple trail in Iiyama town earlier to plan for it. Maybe next trip.

    Iiyama is the gateway to ski field heaven - in winter.

    Iiyama is the gateway to ski field heaven - in winter. The train station is only 5 years old and is very modern, clean and well laid out - transferring to buses is smooth and moving around is helped by elevators and escalators. The Information Centre was staffed by a young lady who spoke English beautifully and is very helpful. You can send your ski gear from there via Kuroneko to avoid lugging it onto the Shinkansen. There is a walking tour you could do in summer to take in the local sights - some of them being a doll museum, paper making, onsen, cycling ... depending on the season.

    I came to Iiyama to walk the Shin-Etsu trail, and I had decided to walk it without a guide, which proved to be quite the challenge, and everyone at the visitor center were incredibly kind and helpful in order for me to finish walking the trail, and I am so grateful for that. I would definitely recommend walking the trail, but with a guide!

    We were very happy to manage to find some place to stay during the most busy weekend. We could park very close to the hotel, room was warm and spacious. Although hotel is a little on the old side we did not mind. There was an Onsen downstairs and some vending machines. Nice curry house just in front of the hotel. But we really enjoyed conversations with Gabor (thank you again for all the advises on where to snowboard) indeed the ski resort you talked about was amazing!

    I had a fabulous time staying at the Silk Inn. The staff were friendly and helpful and the Onsen was fantastic. The room was clean, with an en-suite, albeit a small bathroom but functional. The breakfast was great and the seafood cooked by the chef for dinner was delicious. The bar located in the basement was cozy and a great spot for a night cap.. I will certainly be back for the winter season as the hotel is only a short walk to the slopes.

    The host was very welcoming. The location was great for ski-out (for everyone) and ski-in (for intermediate above skier). Room was a bit old but fine. The bathroom was a bit (too) small. No tissues in the room, but toilet paper in the bathroom. Breakfast was simple but good. Only the host and her sons are running the place, so breakfast can be slow when the hotel is full. Overall good experience :)

    This is our second winter stay at Active Life, Madarao. The managers (Lisa and Stuart) and the rest of the staff were very helpful and friendly. We really liked the small onsen with outdoor view. Excellent location only a few minutes walk from the slopes and restaurants. The hotel bar and restaurant is great if you don't want to venture outside. Highly recommend!

    This place was so amazingly friendly. Served very traditional Japanese breakfast and dinner meals, which was a very new thing to this American traveler. Ski resort was a 5 min walk from hotel. My sense of time was very slow but the hotel staff was so helpful by accommodating reminders for breakfast and dinner. Hotel view was very beautiful.

    Ringo Jam is a small, boutique hotel with comfortable beds, spacious rooms and very well maintained facilities. Pete is a generous host, driving us the 5 mins to the ski lift, organising our passes and also taking us out of town to the best Onsen and local restaurant. The place is warm and also has its own mini onsen downstairs.

    Location was quite nice. Walking distance to Madarao Ski Resort. The building was quite old but have been renovated. It is a little bit unique to have Japanese Room but not with futon. So It is like a fusion hotel. I hope they can fixed the onsen soon as it is very important to sink after tiring day. Overall nice stay.

    The room was good sized and location was quite convenient being next to the bus stop, local eateries and a 5 minute walk up to the ski lifts. The staff were wonderful. I left my wallet in the safe and they promptly mailed it to my hotel in Tokyo. They have both Western and Japanese staff that are bilingual.

    The hosts were great, and the house was very cozy. They have delicious homemade dinners with all kinds of drinks and good breakfast as well. The hotel is pet-friendly so we met a few cute dogs. There was a heavy snowfall on our last day but Mark helped all his guests get to the slopes. Thank you!
