My Recommendation
If budget is not your main concern and you want the absolute best experience in Honshu, go to Lotte Arai. A world-class luxury hotel sitting on top of a massive powder mountain — spacious rooms, indoor pool, 5-star service, and fully avalanche-controlled freeride zones. The stress-free experience of having everything in one building is worth every yen.
