We Will
Pick You Up (and Drop You Off)
We offer a complimentary pick up and drop off service to our local bus stop, and charge a small fee if you want a personalised lift from the train station. Please give us advanced warning of your arrival so we can plan out our day and make sure we're on time. -
So you can
Jump on the Local Bus Service
Madarao has a local bus shuttle service that runs up and down the mountain for most of the day and into the evening. This is a great option for both accessing the resort, or once staying on the mountain and want to head out during the day or night. -
And when you get home
We'll Pour You A Drink (Or Two)
Relax and unwind after a hard day on the slopes and drink from our very own in-house bar - what more could you want? We serve a range of different drinks (hot and cold) and serve simple but delicious meals from our very own kitchen. -

"Relaxed, friendly and peaceful. Ringo Jam is a small, boutique hotel with comfortable beds, spacious rooms and very well maintained facilities. Pete is a generous host, driving us the 5 mins to the ski lift, organising our passes and also taking us out of town to the best Onsen and local restaurant." - AMANDA

"This was such a good cozy bed and breakfast spot in Madarao. The place is owned and run by a lovely Aussie couple. It’s really cozy and homey. Even though the bathrooms are shared, they’re very clean and the showers had insanely hot water and great pressure. Location is great, short walk to the ski lifts and rentals. 10/10 would recommend Ringo Jam to anyone heading to Madarao." - WEIYAN
