Marrillen Hotel have a slope side restaurant that does a good German bratwurst! Yeah, got that one covered - we stayed at the Marillen January this year and the Bratwurst isn't bad atall ! The Huttenzauber just across the slope is even better and has a wide range of Bavarian fare and nice Weissbier. It's only open at lunch time though - makes for an ideal lunch stop. Mmmmmmmmmm......just thinking about it currywurst and weissbier for lunch slopeside. It really doesn't get better than that !! Link to post Share on other sites

Marillen is a good location, are you staying there again this winter? i am there most night with the kids race team. I sometimes pop in for a beer. Link to post Share on other sites
Big Al 16 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Marillen is a good location, are you staying there again this winter? i am there most night with the kids race team. I sometimes pop in for a beer. No, we thought we'd try the Hakuba Springs this time: In-house onsen, Jack's Bar next door to watch the Asian Cup footy at night, and opposite the bus stop for Goryu where Mrs. and Young Miss Big Al prefer to ski. Be good to touch base though mate - you obviously know the lie of the land! Link to post Share on other sites

Tubby Beaver 209 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 isn't there a resort nearby? I was watching one of those TV shows where they restore old machines, based in Vegas and they were commissioned to go up to a resort nearby and make a display chair out of an old chairlift for them.
