Hotels near Sawa Course, Hakuba

Staff super hospitable. Picked us up and dropped us off everyday personally via car. Gave us advice on where to go + what to do nearby for skiing. Hot springs were great!

Great hotel and designed room in front of Iwatake resort. Loved the kitchen and hangout nook and windows. Lived the projector in the room for watching. Lovely to walk around area with so much fantastic snow. Totally charming hotel!

Break fast is so hygienic ,all staf is helpful thank you so much for your good hospitality!!

Where to start, the location next to Sakka beginner slope was perfect, took the hassle out of getting to Happo-one mountain. The 3 bedroom apartment was amazing with plenty of space, kitchen, fridge and 2 bathrooms. Convenient laundry available on first floor. The reception staff are exceptional and go out of their way to help you, thank you Keelie and Alannah! The Rabbit Hole was an unexpected highlight with delicious coffee, breakfast and cocktails. Also, we got a visit from snow monkeys during our week stay at Hotel Villa Hakuba! Our family of 5 with 3 young children would 100% book to stay here again.

The location was quiet even thought I was so close to town. And the bus stop right in front made getting to other mountains easy!

Amazing hotel - way exceeded my expectations. Super friendly and helpful staff, clean, comfortable, warm and toasty, storage lockers and a drying room for gear, onsen, shower sauna thingy, walk into Hakuba, hotel shuttle to iwatake or happo, otherwise a short walk to adjacent tokyu hotel and onto the shuttle bus for other mountains, town etc. Breakfast was excellent.

I liked everything about this hotel! The staff was super friendly and helpful. Neo checked us in after hours, as we were unable to get there within regular hours. Neo and Sho helped with bus schedules, taxi services, reservations, onsen recommendations, and basic local knowledge. I did not catch the names of our friendly Barista or the gal in the back, as they welcomed us every morning with delicious breakfasts and lattes that were included for hotel guests. Blue Star is located directly across from the Tsugeike resort and close to the convenience store, board rentals, eateries, and a bus stop.

We had a great stay! The people are very kind and helpful.

Cozy place, great food, coffee, beer, onsen, and the staff super friendly and helpful. The coworking space, free Sake and Wine and great evening snacks are awesome. Mountain shuttle right across from hotel.

The staff was amazing and the food was delicious. They have a free shuttle to and from the gondola at Tsugaike which was a huge bonus. I cannot recommend this hotel enough and we will be back.

A hardware won’t be great without the software within. For the property, the team was led by a great leader, with him a great crew. John made our first time in Hakuba so enjoyable. He made himself personally responsible when issues came up, and resolved them very professionally. He made it a point to keep us updated about the weather because we rented a 2-wheel drive (we didn’t have a choice, there were no 4WD left for rent anywhere) and whether we’d be able to get up the slope to the lodge. We know it’s imperative to get a 4WD in winter. We’d also like to shout out to Masa, who was always ready to help us make calls to Japanese establishments and assisted us with some other car troubles too when it’s stuck in the snow. That was when he called for help and the entire crew came out from their rest and collectively solved the situation together. The whole crew was so pleasant to speak with and made this trip a memorable one for us. And to Don, fantastic cooking! There were so many occasions that the crew stepped up to make our trip awesome, apologies for not able to remember everyone’s name. The properly location is right in front of Tsugaike chair lift which is super convenient and was practically a ski-in ski-out lodge.

Spacious and comfortable room with a mix of Japanese and western styles. Attentive and friendly English-speaking staff. Good breakfast every day. Comfortable shared lounge area. Can arrange pickup and drop off from nearby train stations or bus terminal, and daily grocery runs are also available. Good onsen room, cheap laundry, and ski storage on site. Great location only a few minutes walk from the Tsugaike base area and shuttle bus connection to other resorts

Helpful front staff, delicious Japanese breakfast, Japanese onsen, lovely cute room

Amazing location just next to the ticket office and Gondola main station. Business owner Fei and her lovely team made our stay very comfortable and pleasant. Personalised service, wholesome breakfasts and delicious dinners.

I loved the staff as they were incredibly helpful in booking taxi's. The room was terrific and spacious especially when coming with a family of 4 with two teens. It was nice that everyone could have their own bed. The bathroom was well stocked and the showers were hot. I really liked the breakfast options and the shabu shabu dinner was amazing. The hotel is close to the bus stop and the iwatake resort so getting around to the other ski resorts and skiing at Iwatake was easy to do. I liked that rhythm rentals will pick up and drop off at that location for rentals and will pick up the rentals from there when finished with them.

The staff were wonderful, very polite and helpful especially Ms. Tini at the front desk. The dinners were very good! They served us French dishes that were very delicious.

Everything was absolutely amazing, the staff are incredible, so helpful and friendly. I seen reviews before I came, so I want to add, yes it's a Small bathroom but all bathrooms are that exact size in Japan if not smaller .I am 6,2ft in height and I had no problem having shower or using bathroom. The room itself was about 4 times bigger then my friends hotel room staying in centre of town . The property is super clean. A decent breakfast buffet , and the onsen was a huge treat, shuttle buses take you to any slope, the staff pick up and drop off. Awesome drying room. I highly recommend this place . I will be back . Thank you hotel abest team!

We had a fantastic short stay at Wadano Onsen Hotel and would definitely come back. The newly renovated rooms are beautiful — modern, comfortable and thoughtfully designed, while still having a warm mountain feel. Everything felt fresh and new, and the beds were especially comfortable after a long hike. The outdoor onsen was probably the highlight of our stay. Sitting in the hot water surrounded by the cold mountain air was exactly the Hakuba experience we were hoping for. It was incredibly relaxing. Overall, Wadano Onsen Hotel strikes a great balance between comfort, style and a relaxed holiday atmosphere. Great rooms, a wonderful onsen and a genuinely enjoyable place to eat and unwind. We’ll definitely stay here again on our next trip to Hakuba.

Love the hotel . Easy rental ski equipment.
