We stayed at the Shin Furano Prince hotel Feb 2023 for 7 nights. Like a lot of the large resort style hotels in Japan, it is dated and the rooms in desperate need of refurbishment. The bathroom is tiny, so tiny that the basin area is outside the bathroom, in the hotel room itself.
Not many options for lunch or dinner, and super expensive. Dining options on the mountain (in the Furano ski zone) are limited to the very busy ramen place or a cafe at the top of the mountain which is no good for beginners.
There is limited bus service to Furano town, with either 25 minutes or 2.5 hours for the return bus.
The hotel doesn’t really have a friendly vibe. We spent a week prior at Hoshino Tomamu Resort, and the services there e.g. regular and free shuttle buses between the two ski areas, a wide variety of dining options, a cafe with free wine and coffee, made guests feel they were being looked after. Prince hotel misses the mark on this.
However, the location is excellent for ski in/ski out, and due to the size of the hotel probably the best option for availability.

This review is not based on personal experience but as a result of reading a huge number of reviews to get the general idea of the pros and cons

PROS
- Great location - ideal for couple with a child
- Rooms are generously sized by Japanese standards
- Good selection of restaurants & cuisine (both Japanese & western)
- Food is reasonably priced given the resort style property
- Staff are friendly

CONS
- Location is quite remote from downtown Furano (30 mins by bus) plus the bus service is infrequent (not free) making it difficult to go into town for a meal
- The hotel has a sterile feel to it
- No wifi in rooms (only LAN connection) and free wifi in lobby is very poor
- Insufficient hotel lifts to cater for peak traffic
- Bar only opens at 5pm so no apres
- Limited vegetarian or special needs food choices
- Negligible English speaking staff

Many of these cons are typical of many (most) large Japanese ski resort hotels. But you are there to ski anyway!!
