Convenient Access Akakura Onsen is the actual town name, located within Myoko Kogen, Niigata. It is an easy 1hr 45 min Shinkansen from Tokyo to Nagano where you can connect with the local Myoko train ( this trip along the river is spectacular in snowy conditions ) which takes approx. 30 minutes. When you arrive at Myoko Station our car can be there to collect you OR it's a 10-minute taxi ride to the Hotel. World Class Ski School & Ski Rental Myoko Snow Sports is located on Akakura Ginza strip ( the main street ) and has built a reputation for providing world-class ski lessons and equipment for people of all ages. As a parent, it's important to know that your kids are taken care of throughout the day to give you the freedom and flexibility to go riding. The snow sports building is 1 minute from the Hotel. Established Town Center with Restaurants & Bars Japan is not known for its Apre Ski scene and that's somewhat of the case in Akakura Onsen, however, there are plenty of quality dining options and bars on the main street just 1-minute from the Hotel. You can get a diverse range of cuisine and we can advise on dining options.
