Skiers and snowboarders might want to test out the slopes at Appi Kogen Ski Resort, a skiing spot located 3 mi (4.9 km) from central Hachimantai. If you master the slopes, Shimokura Ski Area and Panorama Ski Area are also just a short drive away.

10/10 Excellent
"Amazing hotel, relaxing onsen, rooms are decently sized for two people bigger than Apa hotel, free ice cream and morning yogurt drinks and free luggage storage. Would stay again"
"Hotel is located next to the train station and is connected to shopping area and train station. Very convenient especially if you need to take early train or if you arrive late. The lobby was nice, bright with a sitting area. The staff was very polite and helpful. My room was a double facing the city and mountains. Bed was very comfortable and clean. I had a huge luggage but still had room to move around in room. Loved that check out was at 11:00a and they had luggage storage. Overall, a great place to stay and highly recommend."
