Resort Pension Yama-no-ue

Hokkaidō


This friendly, family-run place is in the middle of the village, straight down from the ropeway terminal. There are nature photos everywhere and the meals are prepared with great care. Don't be fooled by 'resort' in the name: it's a humble place. Rooms are tatami-style with shared facilities; the bath gets the same hot-spring water as Kurodake-no-yu next door.
