The Kamenoi Hotel Tazawako was one of our favourite stays this year.
The hotel is about 10 min drive from the ski slopes, but the hotel does offer a shuttle bus morning & afternoon. (We didn’t need this as Jonah & Kiri had their car this year.). The ski passes there were the most economical, allowing the ability to purchase single or more lift passes, depending on what you wanted to do that day.
The rooms at hotel were generous size. Inside Onsen was good. Unfortunately the outside onsen did not have washing facilities. The dining room looked like it was newly renovated, and had excellent choices of western or Japanese food.
No coin washing machine at hotel, so we drove back down into Tazawako town about 20 min to a coin laundry.
Would visit this place again!

We liked our one day skiing at Tazawako, but then it rained.
Accommodation was fine and we had a special area for our evening meals. Nice food!
Even were treated to a concert on two nights by Akita folk singers. Quite special, very different to our familiar folk singing.
Huge choice at breakfast. A shuttle bus to the slopes. Unfortunately, we were bused up to slopes on the second day, only to find that the whole resort was closed. Didn't matter, as we went off around the lake and had a good day being tourists.
You helped us get a shuttle down to the station on the third day, thank goodness!
