Country Houses in Abuta

"Everything was fabulous"

"Great place to soak in the sauna after a hard day on the ski runs. Good ski in ski out right by the family lift, and convenient locker 1 or 2 flight of stairs up depending on the room number. Proximity to the Main Street and ease of access to Seicomart for snacks or food trucks for affordable options. The hotel is pricey since we booked last minute, but likely more affordable options available if booked earlier."

"Yes free parking"

"The Vale Rusutsu is lovely however, its a shame there isn't a bar and breakfast area in that side of the resort. This lovely hotel is attached to the older much more family orientated hotel Rusutsu which is where most of the restaurants and a couple of bars are located which can be a nuisance walking back and forth especially when you are in a rush in the morning to get to the slopes. Thankfully it was just myself and husband travelling this time so it wasnt a big issue. Great onsen and as most of Japan is very clean !!"

"Absolutely fabulous !! Looked forward to returning to the hotel every day. Highly recommend and great location at the bottom of the slopes."

"Stunning ski in ski out resort. Very new rooms with great breakfast. "

"Amazing Onsen"

"Very unique check in experience and service and views are great. The only issue I had was the ac in room cannot be calibrated to cool meaning that the room is excessively hot. Even though it’s cold outside it would be good to give guest flexibility to change to aircon to a comfortable temp in the room. (It is an in room control, but the hotel locks out the function and only allows for hot air to be used)…."

"Great room layout, good ski out location, run to ski in a little challenging. Much more a condo development than a true hotel though. Difficult to get ski edge service in the on property ski shop, although fine for wax. Parking a little expensive. Breakfast was a weak point,.lack of variety and quality overall at the price point. In house restaurants great quality but pricey and not everyday eating. Short walk though to other options in Hirafu. Only one towel per person per day a little stingy, Onsen not truly an Onsen (no mineral water), so fundamentally more of a large hot bath. Daylight to room better than expected with Premium Suite on first floor, was concerned about proximity to ski and boot room but had no issues."
