NECK 14 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Looking for budget accommodation near White World Oze. Looks like not much up there, other than the pricey resort hotel.... Has anyone stayed at or know of any cheap pensions nearby? Link to post Share on other sites
Metabo Oyaji 71 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I've stayed at Pension Currants, near Marunuma Kogen: http://www.snowjapan.com/japan-places-to-stay/gunma/katashina/pension-currants It was nice. Link to post Share on other sites
Slippery Jim 65 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Haven't been there for a while but quite a few onsen ryokan in the village that are comfortable and -- at least 20 years ago weren't too pricey. There should be some visitor info site for Katashina onsen online somewhere. Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I saw that place and mailed them to ask about prices and stuff, but they didn't get back to me. How was the place Oyaji? Was it about 7000 yen per night? Link to post Share on other sites

pie-eater 207 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 The main centre Katashina village (where Route 120 cuts through) is about 10 minutes drive from White World, but the onsen village is just around the base area, a few minutes away. I think. Link to post Share on other sites
ethanbaggett 2 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Thanks for this thead. It's really useful. Planning for a ski vacation trip too soon, but still looking for a great place to hang out though. Link to post Share on other sites

It was a few years ago so I don't remember exactly. Their SJ page says 8,000 for adults, which seems about what I recall. Cozy, very friendly owners. As I recall, they bake their own bread.

SnowJapan Admin SnowJapan 178 Posted September 2, 2014 SnowJapan Admin Share Posted September 2, 2014 NECK, have they still not got back to you? If you want email me and I'll contact them and check things. I'm sure they'd be keen to hear from you. Link to post Share on other sites
