Hotel Soyokaze

Super clean and feels like home as soon as you walk in. The onsen was really nice too. Thank you to Takao and his wife for taking such good care of us while we were there. They were so accomodating helping us out with discounted lift tickets, showing us where to go for the shuttles, driving us wherever we needed to go. Definitely staying here again when we go back. It’s also a super short walk to the Main Street in Echoland.

Nothing - loved it all.

Great stay - definitely recommend. Takao and his wife are great hosts. Takao did the pickup and drop-off at the train station at the start and end of our trip. Always met with a smile and greeting when we stepped in the front door. Spacious room, large king bed, clean - couldn't ask for more.

Fantastic location, lovely place to stay.

Great location. Great staff!

Nothing.

The hosts were the loveliest people, very hospitable and helpful. Takao drove us to and from the bus terminal multiple times. The location was perfect, right in the middle of Echoland, just steps away from bars, restaurants, grocery store, and shuttle bus stop. The onsen is amazing, you book in for a private session free of charge.

The location of the property is perfect for those who are planning to ski, or just want to stay close to cafes and restaurants. There is great places to eat less than 200m away, and the shuttle bus is also very close. The host is so lovely, and goes out of his way to pick you up and drop you off to the bus / train station at the start and end of your trip, and is always around to greet you. The private onsen is also amazing, and is the perfect way to end the day after being on the slopes. I can’t recommend more!!!

I booked Hotel Soyokaze for six nights for our January skiing holiday in Hakuba. Our booking was two rooms - one for the adults & one for my older teens. (For any Aussies out there, the decor is similar to bed & breakfast/country style). Soyakaze is a lovely & quaint 'lodge-style' accommodation in the heart of Echoland. It had everything we needed - a good-sized room, comfortable beds, a clean bathroom with good water pressure, plus easy-to-use washing & drying machines! The ski equipment drying room is excellent. A gorgeous wood fireplace in the communal dining area is a nice place to sit and relax. The location was brilliant, with cafes, restaurants, bars, ski rental & bus transport just a few meters away on the main strip of Echoland. After a long day of skiing or sightseeing, you can book private relaxation at the hotel's Onsen, which is magical! If you prefer breakfast or dinner at Hotel Soyokaze instead of at the many options available on the street, you can book with advance notice. We booked breakfast the day before, but dinner might require more notice - so remember to check with the hotel. You can purchase discounted ski tickets from Hotel Soyokaze for IIMORI ZONE/ Able Hakuba Goryu & Hakuba 47 ski resorts. This was so convenient because our ski lessons with 'Hakuba Snow Sports' commenced here. Our host & hotel owner, Takao (Tukka), was AMAZING & was so kind & professional to ensure we were happy from when we arrived to when we left. Leaving was so sad because we felt we were leaving behind a good friend. Thank you, Tukka, for EVERYTHING; we had such a great time at Hotel Soyokaze & fully appreciate your hospitality.

Everything was great!

We had the best stay ever here. Our host were so helpful and welcoming. The breakfast is amazing and wish now we had organised it for every day. Thank you
