Guest Reviews
- Brian (10/5): - Really enjoyed our stay would highly recommend. Very relaxing and staff where exceptional.
- ASHTON (10/5): - Amazing stay with the kindest hosts Chikako and Kojo, we will definitely be back!
We had such a wonderful stay at The Guesthouse Japan in Hakuba and couldn’t recommend it more highly. The location is fantastic, very close to the Happo Bus Terminal and convenient for getting around. The hosts and all the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. The level of service was exceptional and they really went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience.
Breakfast each morning was simple and delicious, and a great way to start the day before heading out to ski. The daily transport was very convenient – the team would drive us to and pick us up from the ski hill, which made everything so easy. They were also extremely helpful with advice about ski rentals and great places to eat around Hakuba.
During our stay my partner became unwell, and the team went out of their way to help us get to the medical center and made sure we were well looked after, which we really appreciated.
We also got engaged while staying there, and the team went above and beyond to make the moment even more special by surprising us with a cake and celebrating with us. It was such a thoughtful gesture and something we’ll always remember.
Thank you to the whole team for such an incredible stay. We can’t wait to come back
- Mark (10/5): It was all we could ask for in ski holiday accommodation. - We stayed in the cabin of the Guest House Japan and had a wonderful time. The hosts Koji and Chikako went above and beyond to ensure we had a good stay including driving us where we needed to be and helping us with restaurant recommendations. We have young children so the cabin was great as we didn't have to worry about the noise if they were up early and made a noise.
It was very clean and comfortable.
- JasonMN (10/5): Fantastic getaway in Hakuba - We had a fantastic stay. Close enough to Happo without being in the thick of it and what it brings. Beautifully nestled in the Wadano forest. Certainly walkable to Rhythm Wadano and even the Sakka lifts. Thanks Koji, Chikako and the team for looking after us! N/A
- Alonso (10/5): Believe the hype. This place it´s just perfect. - It´s the perfect lodge for a week in the valley. It exceeded our expectations. We couldn't have chosen anything better.
- Luca (10/5): -
- Karim (10/5): Fantastique - Le lieu et les hôtes ont été fantastiques. Ils nous ont aidé à trouver des bons restaurants lors de cette période très chargée à Hakuba. Ils nous ont aussi transporté pour aller sur les pistes et revenir tous les jours. Absolument rien.
- Mark (10/5): - Really friendly and helpful, drove us to the ski fields every day and even on to our next hotel. The hotel was charming and clean, and everything was nice and quiet after 10. Good proximity to bars and restaurants. Would definitely go again if I was staying in the area.
- Ba (10/5): A perfect stay in Hakuba. The hospitality was truly exceptional — the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and -
- Charlie (10/5): Best accommodation on the planet - This is one of the best accommodations I've stayed at in my life. It has a cosy atmosphere, attentive staff, and I felt comfortable and taken care of. Koji and Chikako are so kind and will go out of their way to accommodate you during your stay. They also provide lifts to the mountain which is extremely helpful and means you can maximise your time doing activities. There's a reason people come back here time and time again.
- Tim (10/5): Exceeded expectations. - Fabulous hosts, great location nestled in the forest. They have several staff dedicated to their mini bus service which is much better than waiting on the overcrowded public service. Well beyond the shuttle services offered by other establishments. Comfortable and welcoming guest house. Hope to be back. Thank you!
- Matt (10/5): Perfect chalet accommodation for families with teenagers - Everything. The chalet is excellent- perfect for a family with teenagers where you need a bit of space and the ability to cook. The hot tub, sauna and fireplace with a great view were wonderful. And the real plus - the hosts Koji and Chikako couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful. Nothing. We had a perfect holiday.
- Linda (10/5): Luxurious. - Impeccable facilities and design. Personable staff. Nothing
- Bailey (10/5): -
- bel (10/5): Amazing hosts amazing experience will be back! - Amazing chalet. Everything was so well considered and appointed in the chalet. Pure luxury. Koji and Chikako are the most amazing hosts nothing is too difficult they were so kind and considerate. Will be back again! ❤️
- Nick (10/5): Amazing hosts and good location not far from Happo village - Loved our stay at the the Guest House Japan. Koji and Chikako and the other staff were amazing hosts and so accommodating, driving us to any ski field and also dinner reservations. So kind, interested in your day and anything they can do to help, making it a highlight of our Japan holiday. Our stay here exceeded our expectations and we hope to return here one day Nothing
- Alex (10/5): An amazing place with some of the best hosts that couldn’t do enough to help - We had an absolutely amazing stay at The Guest House. Koji and Chikako were some of the most warm and accommodating hosts we could have ever had. Koji helped so much with shuttling us to the mountain and dinner and was always just a phone call away from help. Chikako made the most delicious breakfast each morning that all of us couldn’t wait to enjoy in the beautiful common area. The other guys shuttling were also so helpful and patient both dropping us off and picking us up from the mountain, helping give us tips on where to ski each day. Our trip would have been so much more difficult if it wasn’t for the support of everyone involved here. Thank you so much for everything! Nothing
- Steve (10/5): Wonderful property and owners / staff were outstanding - Excellent chalet and owners / staff were exceptional
- Sarah (10/5): Amazing Stay - Amazing stay, Great staff, lovely onsen bath and shuttle to ski resorts etc. Really comfortable rooms. loved it. nothing
- Anna (10/5): One of the best in all categories! - exceeded all our expectations. The location is perfect, just a 10 kin walk to the main area, yet peaceful and surrounded by nature. The views from the living room are breathtaking, with a stunning two storey window looking out over snow covered trees and hills. The hosts truly went above and beyond, they were always available, incredibly helpful with suggestions, and assisted us with bookings and transport whenever needed. We honestly couldn’t recommend this place enough, it’s the best accommodation we’ve ever stayed in. Cannot fault anything
- Jon (10/5): Great time and friendly owners - We went there for a day. The owners were super friendly and generous. The room is cozy and simple and the lounge area is very traditional.
- Chia-Wei (10/5): 溫馨 - 旅館主人非常用心經營,非常舒服有回到家的感覺(*゚∀゚)早餐簡單好吃,語言溝通無礙,很棒的住宿經驗(^^♪
- Lisa (10/5): - Koji-sans guest house was incredible. The owners went out of their way to make our stay amazing. They drove us to the ski mountains, translated for us, had a piano concert for all the guests, cooked us an amazing lunch, and genuinely enjoyed just talking with us.
The rooms were very comfortable, the breakfast was great, and we could not have picked a better place to stay. We will definitely be back next year!
- Eat (10/5): - Japanese young owners and staff are very kind. They give absolutely outstanding services! Rooms were a bit small but very clean. Rooms were all private rooms. 2 private shower rooms in the first floor. No toilet in the guest room. We have been to Hakuba many times, and regret that we should have known here.
