Super nice location and very helpful/easygoing staff. You get what you pay for, and as a hostel its great. Some noise is expected due to the hostel being in close proximity to the clubs in Hakuba, but I had no trouble getting a good night of sleep.

The Bohemians' Shelter, hotel in Hakuba

Located in Hakuba, 5.1 miles from Tsugaike Kogen Ski Area, The Bohemians' Shelter provides accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace.

The room and the public spaces were always neat. The staff are pleasant and very accommodating. The general vibe was exceptional, including amongst other guests. I’m a solo female traveler and stayed in the mixed dormitory but I had 0 discomfort. The host runs several shuttles in the mornings to drop off patrons in the morning, so we can then take the town shuttle to get to different ski resorts etc, as well as evening shuttles to pick you up from town and take you back to the guesthouse.

Starfall Lodge, hotel in Hakuba

Starfall Lodge is located in Hakuba, 5.6 miles from Tsugaike Kogen Ski Area and 27 miles from Nagano Station.

Family of 4 stayed in Taurus room for 6. Excellent stay! Big thanks to the team! You won’t find a better staff! The lodge owners take care of their staff and the staff took great care of us! Daily breakfast and shuttles to local mountains were the perfect way to start each day! Shuttle: Staff was very accommodating when we wanted rides to restaurants and the walk back was reasonable; 25 minutes was the longest walk and was quite pleasant even in a light snow. Location: there are 10 ski resorts that are all different, so unless you wanted to stay on one and stay there, the location doesn’t really matter. We went to several different and the shuttle system the lodge runs was great! Starfall was also a 10 minute walk one way to the bus terminal and 10 the other to the train. Room was great! Beds were comfortable and plenty of space in our room. Closet had a waist high shelf perfect for a full size suitcase and more. Lots of hangers. Warm heater. Facilities were awesome-we had two daughters (9, 13) with us. They were very comfortable and had a great time with the staff. There are 6 toilets in private set ups. Never had to wait to use the bathroom. The two showers were also great. Warm outer rooms to undress/dress and spacious showers with two shower heads; nice hot water! We never had to wait for a shower either. Dry room: very helpful and had our ski gear nice and toasty in the AM! If anything, the room was a little hot while getting ready, but we just stepped out onto the covered porch to finish dressing for the slopes! Overall-can’t recommend enough!

Echo GuestHouse, hotel in Hakuba

Located in Hakuba, 5.8 miles from Tsugaike Kogen Ski Area, Echo GuestHouse provides accommodations with a shared lounge, free private parking and a restaurant.

Raymond, the property, is really cool who makes friends with everyone in his house, introduced clearly facilities when we checked in, also provided as much information about Hakuba village tasty foods, ski rentals and resorts etc. In addition, the breakfast he prepares every morning is so good to enjoy a whole day skiing/snowboarding. Usually when we woke up, the breakfast is available already. In this case, it’s super good to take the earliest shuttle bus to the resorts. Also, Raymond highlights the shuttle bus stop near the house to different ski resorts. No more than 100 meters we can take the bus to Goryu, Hakuba47, Happo-One, Tsugaike etc. Hope we can stay Raymond’s house again next year for our ski trip!!!!!!

    Toshi and Megumi couldn't do enough for us - we felt very spoilt! Their advice and support was invaluable (eg all their restaurant and onsen recommendations were spot on) and they made our holiday memorable. Their lovely hostel has a well equipped tidy kitchen, dining room and a cosy lounge. Make use of their great value resort shuttle service - heaps quicker and cheaper than the Hakuba Valley shuttle.

    I highly recommend this place if you're going to ski on a pretty low budget !!!!!! The Pilot Lodge is a comfy place, located at 10 meters from a bus stop that can bring you for free to several ski slopes in 10min, the staff is really accommodating, there is two bathes that you can use on your own and the hostel provides reductions for the ski passes and for a gear rental shop that can pick you up and bring you with your gear ! Thank you so much for everything :)

    The Bohemians’ Shelter is the best hostel in Hakuba. The facilities are new and clean. Gaspard is an amazing host that will help you to enjoy Hakuba ski resort. Free schedules on morning and evening are really convenient. Breakfast is included and dinner can be can prepared also. The beer on top is also a plus !

    Great location close to the shuttle bus that took you to the ski fields We couldn't have asked for better hosts - so helpful with information and transportation. They were so welcoming and warm - I felt like they welcomed us into their home. The hostel was immaculately clean. It has a great kitchen and shared lounge dining space. A perfect location for a family ski trip.
