Other Madarao Accommodation

Opposite the Madarao Kogen Hotel are several inns and pensions that are pretty much ski-in ski-out. There are also various pensions providing simple Japanese accommodation spread out within the small village; some require a walk of up to 10 minutes or a bus ride. A range of inexpensive pensions are available for booking as part of a Madarao ski package.

The village finishes at Hotel Madarao Sympathique which offers ski-in ski-out access to the Sympathique ski resort, a pokey little ski area with just a couple of lifts.

Fujio Pension Madarao ($$) has rooms with western beds and a Japanese tatami seating area. Bathrooms are shared and there is an on-site public onsen for bathing. The hosts are very helpful and the proprietor speaks reasonable English. The common area and the camaraderie over meals are a highlight. It’s a short walk to the ski field or the hosts will drive you to the slopes (or the bus stop or restaurants).
