Ski the fall line at Karuizawa Prince Hotel Ski Resort, located 2.7 mi (4.3 km) from central Karuizawa. If you master the slopes, Karuizawa Snow Park and Saku Ski Garden Parada are also just a short drive away.
The apartment is nice with sufficient space for the family.
The challenge is the location which is rather off the grid from the town and a very winding road leading to the club.
Location wise is quite a challenge.
Staff hardly speak any English but they are very nice people.

The location is good. Walk-able in 10 minutes from the old Ginza shopping street (the walk itself was a nice and pleasant stroll). The hotel was easy to find and surrounded by beautiful lush greenery and gardens.

The rooms were spacious and comfortable, and we loved the organic-smelling toiletries. Staff were always polite and helpful throughout our stay. Breakfast selection was a bit limited, but everything was fresh and well prepared — especially the soups, which we enjoyed every morning.
