I have never felt so at home away from home! The staff at Raicho Lodge went above and beyond to make our short stay as stress free and relaxing as possible! When we come back to Madarao I can’t imagine staying anywhere else! See you guys next season, Dan and Donna!

Nice ski lodge in Madarao

A good place to stay when skiing in Madarao with close proximity to the ski area. Friendly staff that does the little extra for the guests. Raicho Lodge is a newly remodeled skilodge with a cosy atmosphere but it can get a little bit noisy between the rooms and from the common area. In all a nice place to stay at!

コロナ禍明けで新しいオーストラリア人オーナーになり、着任1カ月のニュージーランド人スタッフなどもフレンドリーで親切でした。 ゲストもインターナショナルで半分外国にいるようで、ウチの家族は英語で楽しく過ごしました。 ただ、ロッジ前の駐車場から道路の雪掻きを自分たちでして車を動かしましたが、本来スタッフがもう少し雪掻きもがんばってほしいです。 あと、部屋の壁が薄いのか隣りの部屋の声がよく聞こえました。

We had an outstanding time at Raicho Lodge. Three of us in Japanese room. Luke and Julie are great hosts and have excellent staff who will pick you up on arrival and departure from bus. Even if you do not stay book for dinner - sublime. One of the best restaurants in Madarao. The lodge is an easy walk to the slopes.
