Unhelpful staff. No concierge desk and staff unwilling to help make phone calls for dining reservations. Amenities quality doesn’t match the room price. Shuttle jam packed with ppeople and luggages. Convenient location and clean environment. Onsen in good condition. Good place for ski beginners. Convenient place for ski in and out but the rooms are rather small.

What i didn’t like is the their transportation staff,VERY RUDE and UNACCOMMODATING. The Country club is very nice, but our log cabin is not worth it. The toilent STINKS! and also the HOUSEKEEPING STAFF DIDNT TAKE OUT ALL THE TRASH. Your reputation is wasted. Your performance fell far below expectations.

At checkin, I was offered access to the various services and facilities Prince Hotels provides to its guests. Upon learning I had a tattoo, that offer was rescinded, and I was denied access to areas that other patrons were not. This tattoo is of significant cultural and religious importance, yet in the year 2024, Prince Hotels clearly demonstrated they do not respect the cultural diversity of their guests, only the money they bring in. I urge all people who value freedom of expression, freedom of religion, and protection from censorship to choose alternative lodgings, rather than a Prince facility that does not share your values.
