    Located just below the summit of Mt. Hakuba, this is a large mountain lodge. Every part of the facility was kept clean, and I had a very comfortable stay. The compact private rooms can be locked from the inside, so even a woman traveling alone can stay there with peace of mind. The restaurant, Sky Plaza, was particularly stylish and had a great atmosphere; the sausages and iced coffee I had there were absolutely delicious. It’s a fantastic mountain lodge that I definitely want to visit again. Thank you so much.

    From Staff

    We're delighted to hear the lodge felt clean throughout. Glad the lock on the inside of the compact private room gave you some peace of mind too. So happy you enjoyed the atmosphere at Sky Plaza, and that the sausage and iced coffee hit the spot. Hearing you'd call this the best lodge and that you're already planning to return means the world to us. We hope to welcome you back to the mountains of Hakuba, in the Japanese Alps.

    Even though they say it's okay to have seconds at dinner, the chairs in the cafeteria are so close together that I can't stand up.

    From Staff

    Sorry for the inconvenience with the seating being a bit tight in the dining hall — thank you for the feedback, we'll keep it in mind. We hope to welcome you back to the mountains of Hakuba, in the Japanese Alps.

    The room was a little chilly, and I couldn’t fall asleep until the futon warmed up, but overall, I had a very comfortable stay. The staff prepared meals for us even before dawn, and I can only imagine how challenging that must have been with so many guests. They also greeted me with a smile when I checked in, which really helped ease the fatigue from my hike. I hope to stay with you again someday, and if I do, I look forward to your hospitality.

    From Staff

    Sorry it took a bit for the futon to warm up — that must have felt a little chilly at first. Glad everything else made for a comfortable stay overall. We really appreciate you noticing the effort our staff put into preparing meals before dawn — feeding that many guests is no small task, so it means a lot that you picked up on it. Hearing that the warm welcome at check-in helped ease the fatigue from your hike is also the best kind of encouragement for us. We hope to welcome you back to the mountains of Hakuba, in the Japanese Alps.

    It goes without saying that this is the largest mountain hut in the country. There are lines for both breakfast and dinner, but the staff handle the crowds with remarkable efficiency. It’s not the best choice for those who don’t like crowds.

    From Staff

    Even with lines forming at both breakfast and dinner, we're glad our staff's efficient handling of the crowd impressed you. There are certainly busier times, and we'll keep working to make each guest's experience as smooth as possible. We hope to welcome you back to the mountains of Hakuba, in the Japanese Alps.

    Since there wasn't a docomo signal booster in Building 1, it was a bit of a hassle to have to go all the way to the front desk or the cafeteria, but I was able to have a comfortable stay. It wasn't crowded, so I was able to sleep comfortably in a bed with one empty space between me and the next person, but I think it might feel a bit cramped if it were fully booked.

    From Staff

    We're sorry for the inconvenience regarding docomo reception in Building 1. Thank you for letting us know that having to head over to the front desk or dining area was a bit of a hassle. Glad the lighter occupancy let you sleep with some extra space. We'll also keep in mind your point about bedding space when the lodge is at full capacity. We hope to welcome you back to the mountains of Hakuba, in the Japanese Alps.
