  • ANA InterContinental Appi Kogen Resort By IHG
  • Appi Kogen Ski Resort (Iwate) couple trip. Best upscale/resort hotel?

Headed to Japan (Iwate) for the famous "Japow" at Appi Kogen. Traveling w/ my partner. Since we'll spend a lot of time indoors, we want a nice place. Upscale/Luxury resorts are totally fine. Recs?
