I had a pleasant stay at the Holiday Inn Resort Appi Kogen, but there's room for improvement. The location is awesome for skiing right out the door, and the staff were super friendly. However, the lack of dining options for dinner was a bit of a letdown. Also, my shower head needed some fixing, but the room was spacious and comfortable which made up for it a bit.
