Star Hotel Akakura

Akakura Star hotel Great location and only a short walk to the ski area , bus station and local restaurants. Very basic but lovely staff and breakfast is a treat every morning

This hotel was recommended to us by a friend and it didn't disappoint. Centrally located (you can literally walk to the Akakura onsen ski area in 5 mins), the rooms are spacious by Japanese standards and comfortable with a lovely view of the Akakura onsen area. It is family owned and service is great - filling breakfast served with a smile and we were picked up and dropped off to Myoko Kogen station which was very handy. They even gave us some complimentary warm cans of tea/coffee when we left. The onsen was lovely after a day of skiing (it is public and gender separated but in the steam you don't see much lol) Their lift passes were cheaper than RRP. The hotel is a bit dated but great value compared to nearby places.
