Pros:

民宿老闆人非常熱情會給對去日本登山的我們行李寄放給很多幫助,也像地陪般的讓我們更認識栂池這個地方,像是住進遠方朋友家一樣。登山滑雪有需要的人推薦入住。

Pros:

I like the atmosphere around the hotel. It was so close to skiing fields and in the middle of mountain. I got relaxed with staying calm environment. Staffs are so kind that they taught me some useful information to let me decide great plans for next day. They have a lot of hospitalities and ability as a local guide, which make me feel quite comfortable.

Cons:

On the way to the hotel, I needed to drive along with the river, because I came from northern sea. It took me about an hour from highway interchange, but the road is challenging. Especially, I drove out of main lane for last 10 minutes to get there and that is a bit scary. I recommend you not to drive after sunset.

Cons:

No. To be avoided. I really do not understand the comments that I read before making the reservation. That can not be true. Way to expensive for what it is! Asked for a 2 bed room, gave us a room with 3, when the rooms are already not big, I wonder why. The hotel seemed entirely empty besides us (as not other shoes at the entry). Bathroom curtain with mold. Blankets with stains. The corridors were packed with cleaning stuff, baskets, furniture, laundry. I can't even describe the state of the carpet in the entire place, brrrr.
(We arrived for 1 night and it was the end of the season, so everything was close near by which did not help for the experience.) Nothing to say about the lady who welcomed us, as she was lovely. For some reason I needed to talk on the phone to the owner twice before we were able to go in the room, still do not know why.

Eggs, hash browns, sausages in the morning to give me full power for the day. Best place on the mountain.
Pros:

It’s amazing proximity to the best ski field in Hakuba, literally a walk down the road to a convenience store, great ramen down the road if you don’t want the dinner they provide which is extra. Rentals down the road, pizza down the road!!! It doesn’t get any better with your own room shower and toilet.

Cons:

Nothing…. Nothing at all. Staff are amazing breaky was amazing even for an Aussie.

Atención exquisita!!!
Pros:

La amabilidad de todo el personal, nos pusieron en una habitación superior sin solicitarlo, la dueña nos llevó al autobus a nuestra partida para que no fueramos cargadas con las maletas.
Es muy fácil y cómodo alquilar los esquís allí.
De verdad te hacen sentir bienvenido en todo momento.

Cons:

Nada

Great comfortable lodge style ski accommodation.
Pros:

Great access to the slopes at Tsugaike. Room was spacious and comfortable. Very good quality lodge style accommodation. Staff super friendly and helpful. Really lovely breakfast staff. Great facilities with drying room and vending machines. The breakfast was REALLY nice with a wide range of choices western or Japanese each day plus fruit, pastries etc.

Cons:

Bit of a hill to drag the bags up. I should have communicated earlier with the manager as she can pick up.

Amazing place to stay, great hosts, great price. Would stay again!
Pros:

Staff was amazing and very accommodating. The location was so close to Tsugaike Kogen Ski Resort. We were able to walk across the street to the run and ski down to the base. Really enjoyed our stay there!

Cons:

WiFi could be a little bit better. Gets slow at peak times (when everyone comes back from the slopes). Also walking from Tsugaike bus drop off is uphill so a little challenging with a lot of ski/snowboard gear.

Amazing Traditional Japanese Stay at Hakuba!
Pros:

I loved the traditional japanese room, the onsen, how close it was to the ski lift and how friendly and helpful the staff were. The breakfast was delicious and warm each morning. The ski hire at the property was so convenient and the boot dryer was so useful! The onsen is tattoo friendly!

Cons:

My partner struggled to find a time where the male onsen wasn't full in the evening. (but the womans' was fine for me, I had plenty of time on my own).
The hair dryer in the female bathroom is quite weak and it takes a while to dry your hair. Internet connection was slow. But these are such minor points, we loved our stay at Hakuba King!!
