Hakuba Sun Valley Hotel

Very close distance to the beginner ski slopes as well as English ski/snowboard schools. Great place to be if you are just starting out to learn snow sports. The flooring of the units were just renovated and Space is sufficient for 2 person with a Living room space, and a loft area for sleeping. Bedding was ok with futons but may not be that comfortable if you prefer a softer alternative. Private Bathrooms were clean but we opted to use hotel's available bath house downstairs for most nights to soak away the soreness from skiing. Hotel provides buffet style for breakfast and dinner with sufficient enough variety for a few days if and when you are lazy to venture outwards for other food options. Owner and a few of their staffs can converse in chinese/jap/english and will go out of their way to help you enjoy your trip there.

Food options were limited to 2-3 shop houses nearby within comfortable walking distance in the snow. Bedding will be quite hard if you prefer softer beds.

Location was perfect. 400metres to the gondola. Was quiet, restaurants nearby. Has all the facilities required.

Nothing to dislike. Was excellent accommodation.

So close to the lifts!!

A little ways out, so going out for dinner requires a car

Very friendly staff and great location

It was ski in/ski out

Nothing

The staff were great.The owner went above and beyond to be of assistance

Our own fault we booked a standard room which was small.Bedding ok but I put all my gear in the loft up a small set of stairs

well located very close to iimori ski resort, which has chair lifts and ski school. rooms are well ventilated and good size. Staff was friendly in arranging pickup and drop to nearest bus stop staff provided advice on ski facilities , rental and shuttle bus services .. was helpful

it’s a long walk from the nearest bus stop / station .. better to call hotel and request pickup / drop. breakfast was ordinary Japanese cuisine

The location was good for skiing.... but not much else.

I don't like leaving poor reviews as I don't want it to reflect badly on the workers who may be doing their best in a job they need. The manager was cheerful, friendly and welcoming and the location is good for skiing. But it is otherwise very isolated from shops and restaurants and the place is extremely run down. Yes, I booked it because it appeared good value for on snow accommodation.... my mistake... we ended up leaving and staying elsewhere. Accommodation near Happo One was similarly priced and a million times more comfortable.... and Happo One is a far superior mountain.

In fact, the breakfast and dinner are very good and the service of staffs is great!

The house and the facilities are very old. The rooms are very small!
