    I'm dissatisfied with the number of people assigned to each shared room. The futons feel damp. Since no one asked us for inner sheets at check-in, I wonder if some people aren't using them.

    From Staff

    Thank you for your honest feedback. We're sorry that the number of guests in the shared room and the condition of the futons kept you from resting comfortably. We also take seriously that our staff did not mention the inner sheets at check-in, and we will make sure this is communicated clearly to every guest. We will put your comments to good use, and we hope that if you return to the mountains of Hakuba, in the Japanese Alps, your stay will be a better one.

    Thank you so much for everything. I was shivering from the cold after being caught in the rain and wind, and I’m truly grateful for the staff’s kindness—they provided me with a blanket, a hot water bottle, and warm tea. I hope the weather is better next time.

    From Staff

    Arriving soaked and chilled by wind and rain must have been a hard and anxious moment. We're truly relieved that we could help you warm up a little. Next time, may the skies be clear for you. We hope to welcome you back to the mountains of Hakuba, in the Japanese Alps.

    It was my first time staying here, and after arriving from a hike in bad weather, I was truly grateful for the staff’s thoughtfulness—they offered me hot water, let me warm up by the stove, encouraged me to take off my boots, and even provided sandals. The restrooms were clean, with almost no odor, and I appreciated that they were separated by gender. I stayed in a semi-private room, but it was a bit of a problem that water droplets from condensation on the window dripped onto my face while I was sleeping. Since the reservation system didn’t allow me to select “Hakuba Sanso” as the arrival point for my hiking route, I sent an email to inquire, but I couldn’t quite understand the reply.

    From Staff

    Thank you for making the climb in such tough weather. We're truly glad that we could help you feel a little warmer and more at ease when you arrived, and your kind words about the clean restrooms encourage us greatly. At the same time, we're sorry about the condensation dripping from the window during the night, and that our email reply to your booking inquiry was not clear. We will take both points on board as we work to improve. We'd love for you to experience the ridge on a clear day, too. We hope to welcome you back to the mountains of Hakuba, in the Japanese Alps.

    I stayed in Room 16, a Japanese-style room in Building 2. The self-catering kitchen was right next door, and the dining hall and restrooms were also nearby, which was very convenient. It was a very clean mountain lodge, the meals were delicious, and my husband and children were delighted with the comfort of the restrooms, which had Washlet bidets. However, the futons were narrow and thin, and the comforters were also thin, so even in late August, we were cold at night with just one futon and one comforter per person. Since I’ve rarely stayed in mountain huts, this might be standard, but I think we would have been able to rest more thoroughly with slightly sturdier bedding. My child loved the cheesecake at Sky Plaza—which we’d been looking forward to—so much that we had another slice after dinner while enjoying the view of Mt. Tsurugi and the sunset. Thanks to you, we were able to enjoy a safe and memorable mountain climb. Thank you very much.

    From Staff

    Thank you for staying with us. We're glad the convenient location near the self-catering kitchen, dining hall and restrooms, along with the comfort of the washlet, worked well for you and your family. As for the bedding, we appreciate you letting us know the futons felt a bit thin and narrow even in late summer. We're delighted to hear your child enjoyed the cheesecake at Sky Plaza more than once, along with the view of Mt. Tsurugi and the evening sun after dinner. It's wonderful that you were able to have a safe climb and such a memorable time together. We hope to welcome you back to the mountains of Hakuba, in the Japanese Alps.

    Dinner was wonderful. I arrived late for check-in, but they provided me with a takeout dinner. Not only that, but they also gave me some pork miso soup and hot tea, which felt great on my chilled body.

    From Staff

    Thank you for the wonderful words about dinner. We're glad that even with a late check-in, the boxed dinner along with the pork soup and hot tea helped warm you up after being out in the cold. We hope to welcome you back to the mountains of Hakuba, in the Japanese Alps.

    I stayed overnight on the day of the Super Mountain Climbing Club’s live performance. The show was truly amazing—it really moved me! Dinner after the show was delicious—the tender meat and the pork miso soup packed with ingredients were especially good. I was also surprised by how clean the restrooms were. Before the sun set, I was also moved by the view stretching out from in front of the lodge. I’d love to visit again! Thank you very much.

    From Staff

    Thank you for staying with us on the night of the Super Climbing Club live event. We're delighted the performance moved you. We're also glad you enjoyed the tender meat and hearty pork soup at dinner. Hearing that the clean restroom and the sunset view from in front of the lodge moved you as well means a lot to us. We hope to welcome you back to the mountains of Hakuba, in the Japanese Alps.

    We used this facility during the Super Mountaineering Club live event. Above all, the restrooms were clean, and it was great that we were able to use the water. I also recommend Sky Plaza because it’s a great place to relax. The beef stew was delicious, too. Thank you very much.

    Around 6:30 a.m. on September 6, the middle-aged woman handling check-out had the worst customer service attitude, leaving me with a very unpleasant experience at the end of what had otherwise been a wonderful stay. Due to a misunderstanding on her part, she told me there was a boxed lunch included and demanded I produce a lunch voucher I hadn’t even received. She spoke in a confrontational tone, insisting, “There’s no way I didn’t give it to you.” She accused me of lying, spoke rudely, and offered no apology. I really hope she takes a cue from the young woman who checked me in—her warm, smiling hospitality is something she should definitely emulate.

    From Staff

    We're sorry for the unpleasant experience you had. We take seriously what you've described about the way you were treated at checkout. We're grateful for your kind words about the check-in staff, and we're taking this seriously as we work to improve how every member of our team interacts with guests.

    This was my first time staying here. Since it had been a hike on a day with heavy rain and strong winds, my body had started to get cold by the time I arrived at the lodge. I was so grateful when the staff handed me a cup of hot water, telling me, “You can keep your rain gear on—just come inside quickly.” To my surprise, the room had tatami mats; it was a very cozy space with the scent of wood, and I was able to rest comfortably.

    From Staff

    Thank you for staying with us for the first time. We're glad the cup of hot water offered a bit of comfort after you got chilled on a day with strong wind and rain. It's wonderful to hear you could relax in a tatami room surrounded by the scent of wood. We hope to welcome you back to the mountains of Hakuba, in the Japanese Alps.
