Or jump onto the many free shuttle buses from the Tokyu hotel.

David G –
“Family Holiday”
Stayed at Maki Cottage which is aligned with the Phoenix Hotel the cottage was a fantastic place to stay and being able to self cater saved a bit of cash. We had every comfort of home at the cottage.The Phoenix hotel would transport us to the supermarket when we needed, and also transported us to the three closest ski runs at 8 or 9 am. Can’t rate them highly enough and will definitely be back. Very easy to deal with and great experience.
