Overview
Midagahara Hotel is a highland hotel at an elevation of 1,930 m on the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route. Its 52 rooms include Western-style twins and triples, Japanese-style tatami rooms and a Japanese-style tatami suite, and the restaurant and communal bath look out over the sea of clouds and the night sky. Children are booked with meals and rates set by age: a children's set meal for those in the lower grades of elementary school and a kids' dinner for preschool-age children. There are no cribs, strollers or nursing room, and because the elevation is high, families traveling with infants need to take care with their health.
Rooms
There are 4 room types across 52 rooms in total: Western-style twin, Western-style triple, Japanese-style tatami room and Japanese-style tatami suite. The Western-style twin is 25.5 sq m for 1-2 guests, on the mountain side, with two beds measuring 110 x 195 cm. The Western-style triple is 36.1 sq m for 2-4 guests, with three beds measuring 110 x 195 cm plus one sofa bed (100 x 195 cm); the sofa bed is used when 4 guests stay. The Japanese-style tatami rooms come as 10-tatami rooms (for 4 guests and for 5 guests) and 16- or 18-tatami rooms (for 6 guests), all without a bath but with a toilet. The Japanese-style tatami suite on the 4th floor has two rooms, one Japanese-style and one Western-style, with a bath and toilet.
Dining
Dinner is a seasonal Japanese kaiseki course (a multi-course meal) at the restaurant Dainichi, and breakfast is a Japanese and Western buffet with the same menu for all guests. Children's dinners differ by age: children in the upper grades of elementary school are served the adult menu, children in the lower grades receive a children's set meal, and preschool-age children receive a kids' dinner. Tableware and chairs for young children are available at mealtimes, but there are no cribs, strollers or nursing room for infants. Guests with food allergies must give specific details at least 10 days before the stay, and the menu cannot be changed on the day. Depending on what is arranged, an additional charge may apply.
Baths
The communal baths are the same size for men and women and make generous use of natural materials. They are open from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. and from 3 p.m. to 11 p.m.
Family-Friendly Notes
Room rates for children come in three levels according to the child's age and meal: 70% of the adult rate for Child Rate A (meals equivalent to the adult menu), 50% for Child Rate B (children's meals) and 30% for Child Rate C (no meals, bedding only). The hotel stands at a high elevation of 1,930 meters where the air pressure is low, and even healthy people can develop symptoms of altitude sickness. Guests with a chronic illness, guests who are pregnant and families traveling with infants are especially advised to consult their regular doctor and to come in good health. Be sure to bring any regular medication. If someone's condition worsens the hotel will do what it can, but no doctor or ambulance is stationed on site, and emergency transport takes time.
