Tanuki Nozawa

what an incredible stay! The staff was super helpful, friendly, professional, respectful, and kind!The room was great and exceeded our expectations in every way. Everything was clean and well-maintained.We will definitely be staying here when we come back!

Excellent & simple facilities with everything you need. Lots of stairs, but if you are going skiing you kind of need to be good with that. Staff are extremely accommodating and help you with your luggage. Tengu Sushi & Teppanyaki restaurants were delicious.

Amazing boutique hotel in a great location near skiing and restaurants. The bed was very comfy, the room was perfect for our family of 4, and the breakfast was delicious - you just pick whatever you want off the cafe menu.

Stayed in mid August. Great place and location… only hicups were parking and the uphill distance to the lift. Having to ride bikes up the hill was not great start mid August but the had buke storagd and I would not mind the walk in Winter. Parking was a bit complicated and a bit of a pain to grab things and pack up but location trumped that inconvenience. I just tried to find time in winter but it appears booked out. Location was as a good as I have had in Nozowa - right in the heart of the village overlooking prime Noz attractions.

Great place in the Centre of town with the onsen nearby Nice service with nicely decorated suites .Will definitely come back again .

Stay there with the family, under state of emergency in Japan, so was quite but what a lovely place, great staff, great food, decent accommodation for a family of 4, close to the ski area. You also have great deal to rent all the equipment for enjoying the beautiful snow in Japan! 🙏 

first time visiting nozawa and after a fun day of skiing pitstop at Tanuki for coffee.  we ordered piccolo and it took us back to sydney.  Bread was beautiful and delicious.  got to know they have accomodation upstairs and comes highly recommended.   its on our list for our next visit.  

One of the best places in Japan where i found coffee as i used to get back home.  

A family of 5 and a family of 4 travelling together to ski Japan from Australia.  We were recommended to Tanuki by friends and it didn't disappoint.  Our 4 bedroom apartment was incredibly well designed, spacious and functional with everything you need. The hotel itself was kitted out for everything you need for a great family ski holiday.  Breakfast in the cafe downstairs each day was fresh and fabulous  (sourdough bread made in house, great coffee, avocado on toast)...The adults made it down the bar in the basement for drinks and live music while the kids watched Netflix in the spacious lounge by the fire.  To top it all off, the hotel is located in the most central location, near to all the best shops and onsens and a 5 min walk to the bottom of the slopes.  Highly recommended!

Our group of 5 have just reluctantly left Tanuka after a glorious 6 night stay over Christmas that was 12 months in the planning. From the initial inquiry to check out, Brad & Yumi have been a delight to deal with. We were collected at Iiyama station and delivered to the door of Tanuki & Brad Organised our lift tickets & ski hire in advance including a discount. Tanuki is ideally located at the end of the Main Street of the charming village of Nozawaonsen and a short walk to the yu road which is the covered escalator that delivers you to the ski area. I’ve never had such an easy access to the ski area and it sure beats shuttle buses & long treks carrying skis (you leave your skis & boots at the hire place). Having had a good look around, it is the most convenient accommodation location in town, with shops and an abundance of restaurants within easy walking distance. We stayed in 3 rooms in the lodge section which is reached through the main building and along a corridor that runs behind the neighboring building. The rooms are traditional in style & fit out, with a very comfortable bed on the ground & a capsule style bathroom that although small was perfectly adequate with a shower over a bath. Breakfast was included in the room rate & served in the ground floor restaurant which s cosy industrial in style. We worked our way through the breakfast menu & can’t speak highly enough about the quality & skill of the chefs & service team. Special mention is required for the dashi eggs & the coffee which we all agreed was up there with the best we’ve had (& we’re from Melbourne!). We had dinner in the restaurant & loved the food & atmosphere. On Christmas Eve we enjoyed a spectacular Tepinyaki dinner in the upstairs restaurant which is beautifully designed & seats a maximum of 14. Our chef Yugi delivered an amazing 6 course dinner featuring local produce including marbelled sirloin & salmon. It was the best Tepinyaki I have experienced. Tanuka also boasts a cruisy basement bar that is fitted out with booths & bar seating & seemed to be a favorite haunt with From live music from 9pm. To sum up - Tanuki is a fabulous accommodation & dining premises that delivers on every front & is run by seriously good operators. I checked out the apartments on the top floor which were stunning & we’ll consider that option when we return. Thank you Brad & Yumi for making our family’s first visit to Nozawaonsen so memorable & stress free.

We stayed at Tanuki for 2 weeks on Feb/March. The place well exceeded all our expectations! Tanuki is located in the heart of town, only a short walk from the mountain lifts, and within a stoned throw from more delicious eateries than I could count.
We spent the first week is a traditional Japanese room, which was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed (including wifi and Apple TV!). We then spent the next week in one of the apartments which was just beyond luxury!

Amazing cooked to order breakfast and coffee/hot beverages were provided every morning. The restaurant and Tepanyaki bar in the complex are a must-do. There is also a great bar which often has live music just downstairs. 

Overall, the quality and convenience was exceptional , and the lodge managers (English and Japanese speaking) were hugely helpful with anything we needed. Will definitely stay again!
