Pension Tomato

The small log cottage had a wonderfully cozy atmosphere that made it feel like a true retreat. Its warm and inviting charm was perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. The aesthetics were another highlight, with beautiful wooden interiors that added to the idyllic cabin experience. Located in a peaceful and quiet area, the cottage offered a serene escape, complete with stunning mountain views that felt like a postcard come to life. It was also well-equipped with all the essentials, including a functional kitchen and comfortable bedding, which made the stay incredibly convenient. Surrounded by trees and fresh snow, the setting created a magical winter ambiance that felt truly special.

There is nothing to dislike. The hosts are really nice people and I really felt valued staying there. Will stay again when I go back.

The hosts were extremely accomodating and the place was perfect for our stay in Habuka. The onsens were the best touch and it’s very close to town. We never wanted to leave!

Loved the onsen. Loved the staff. Loved the location.

Great stay and amazing hosts

Great stay. Host was very kind and gave us a lift to and from the main bus terminal on check in & out

Love it. Super friendly hosts who helped us a lot, offered to pick us up, take us to hire gear at echoland (with discount at affiliated store), take us to deliver our luggage and send us to the station upon checking out. Booked restaurants for us too since we didn't have a local phone number. Thank you so much! Great accommodation, very cosy and nice atmosphere, vending machine inside, 2 onsen rooms (one of which has an outdoor onsen too, very nice in the snow) which can be used privately by booking each day. Drying room for ski gear is very convenient. Short walking distance (<5 min) to free local bus stop to goryu, happo, iwatake and also to echoland base camp for the hakuba valley shuttle. Buses only run a few each day and finish pretty early, best to not miss the last one as getting a taxi can be a pain! Breakfast needs to be booked by 10am from the previous day, but it's amazing, highly recommended.

The perfect place to stay in Hakuba! The beautiful lodge was in a quiet street just off the main strip in Echoland, which was the best spot close to great restaurants and bars, gear hire and the free shuttle buses to get you to different resorts. The owners were incredibly accommodating and made us feel right at home, even picking us up from the bus station and dropping us off. The highlight of our stay were definitely the on-site onsens - it was the perfect way to end a huge day on the slopes.

The beds were memory foam mattresses, which made it a little uncomfortable at first.

No Breakfast. The place was different to what we expected but our hosts made our stay very enjoyable and helped with transport to and from the Happo-one Bus Terminal. The onsets were fantastic and even though the place is out of the way it is within walking distance of Shuttle buses and Food outlets. Located with forest views.

Everything is great. The owners Mitoko and Tsune always smiling.

We stayed in the delux apartment and it was absolutely AMAZING! It was the highlight of our Japan trip! Sitting in the private hot tub in our apartment, with the window open looking out to the snowy rice fields was A DREAM! The whole apartment was great, had everything we needed and spacious. Beds were very comfy, intact the comfiest ones from our whole Japan trip. The private onsens you can book were beautiful! The hosts were very lovely too, always smiling and welcoming you. We will definitely be back at Pension Tomato for another winter trip!
