Great location, short walk to the Main Street for restaurants and bars. 10min walk to the ski lift. The hosts were fantastic, so helpful arranging discounted ski lift passes and rental gear. Private onsen can be booked as well which was great after coming off the slopes.

Lovely hosts who were so friendly and accomodating! The accomodation was clean and close to the bus station!

The owners are a wonderful old couple that are really kind and full of information about Nozawa. They are reallu helpful. The room is a bit small but confortable, we can't complain at all. The public onsen nearby is very very hot, be advised! The location is excellent, 10 mins walking and you're either in the center of the village, full of nice restaurants and pubs or directly at the snow resort!

The hosts were so kind, caring and we had some good laughs. The breakfast was amazing. We were very comfortable and happy. We would stay again.

Uemasa is a little far from the main part of Nozawa Onsen, but it only feels far when the snow is pouring and it's -15 degrees out. Otherwise, Uemasa is only 100m away from the bus stop that takes you to Nagasaka Gondola. The drying room was amazing, kept all our ski gear warm and dry. They have a little shared bath downstairs which was lovely, but also Uemasa is only 100m away from the closest public onsen (Shinden no Yu). The hosts, Naoko-san and Kazu-san were exceptional. They were super helpful and informative - they helped us acquire discounted ski lift tickets, even when we asked for it on the day!

We booked here last minute because we decided to come early to the mountain, so we had 0 idea what to expect. Naoko and her husband were so welcoming and kind and their little guest house had the cutest charm. The rooms were cozy and all traditional Japanese style. We loved how authentic the experience was. But the best part about the place was Naoko - she is the sweetest and so helpful. The showers were hot, the dry room was great for our gear, and the heater in the rooms quickly warms it up. The stay is only a 10 minute walk from the Gondola and there is a shuttle bus to get there as well. Sadly we had to leave after 2 days and switched to another place but Naoko's is much better, and we wished we could have stayed with her for the remainder of our trip. We will book with her again next time we're in Nozawa!

the couple who ran the guest house are so nice and made our stay extra special :)

Breakfast was homecooked and expansive with multiple options. Hosts were quite hospitable, and there were multiple small quality of life additions like connections with ski rental and shops and transport, recommendations for activities/restaurants, and information about events.
