Asuka Lodge

近八方滑雪場，整體員工友善，性價比高

Great location, handy to the lift. Staff was super helpful. It was great to have the ability to get the lift to the shop and onsen in the evenings.

Breakfast was a great way to meet people and find plans for the day with likeminded people. Each day was something new, and changed between traditional and western. Staff were very friendly, and always provided great recommendations.

今年は雪が少なく、宿泊前から色々とお世話になりました 人数の変更も快く受け入れていただきとても助かりました 特に良かったのは、朝食であのホットサンドは絶品でした スタッフは外国の方がメインでしたが、もっとたくさん宿泊していろいろお話しできたらよかったなと思います 色々とありがとうございました

Good location, friendly staffs, breakfast was great.

Rooms generally looked clean but actually dusty. The floor and furnitures were dusty.

有可以泡熱水的地方 早上晚上都可以洗澡

Short walk to Adam gondola or Evergreen ski school. Very welcoming and great for families.

対応が柔軟、価格が良心的、清潔感があった

セキュリティは少し心配。部屋の二重窓の外側の鍵がなかった（上手く掛けられなかった）。

英語が基本でしたが、丁寧に対応して頂けました。 朝食が、簡単な物と思っていましたが、手作りでとても美味しかったです。 お部屋に冷蔵庫もあって助かりました。

簡単な食事が出来るダイニングルームはよかったですが、食べた後、床の掃除をしてもらえるとよかったです。

日本語が通じず海外を体感できる。事前に日本人スタッフがメールなどで案内してくれたので、あまり困ることもなかった。

Staff was great

Beds were quite firm

Awesome spot for Happo One ski field. Bus stops close by to get to other ski fields. Homely comfortable feel to the place. Awesome breakfasts that set you up for a days skiing. Pick up and drop off service from bus terminal on arrival/departure. Onsen and shared shower area. Also single shower if you’re not comfortable using onsens. Range of ages of people staying here. Most comfortable beds we had in Japan.

New pool cues needed. Drying room didn’t dry some gear over night. Didn’t help that some people would leave the door open.

Very convenient location for skiing, lovely staff, and delicious breakfast.

The shower in a different floor was not very convenient, but not a problem for rooms with private bathroom.

Great Spot. The staff was friendly and the facilities were clean.

This hotel is in such an amazing location for skiiers and snowboarders. It is located right near the slopes, Evergreen Ski School and Rythm Rental Wadano. There are a few good restaurants and quick food spots a short walk away. The accomodation provides a free pickup from the Hakuba train station or the Happo Bus terminal before 7:30pm which was very convenient. All staff were English speakers which made all processes very easy regarding check in and pickups/ drop offs. This accomodation also has a drying room for snow gear as well as male and female onsens and a 'games room' (basement room with a pool table).

The rooms were average, quite clean (minus a lot of dust) and all you need if you just want to ski all day, go out for dinner and then sleep in the hotel room. The shower in our ensuite was a bit of a let down and was a hose attached to the sink's tap with very low pressure. There was not often someone at the reception desk which was slightly frustrating when we needed to ask a quick question.

The location is perfect for early morning boarding just a walk across the road to the chair lift, the staff and service are outstanding

Nothing

Handy to some of the Happo slopes and gondola. It is up the hill, so beware as the Ubers or taxi were not always able to get there. Short walk down hill to a bus stop that see’s shuttle to nearby ski fields. The friendly staff were always on hand to support you. Breakfasts were exceptional. There is plenty of space in common areas, with essentially four areas to socialise outside your room. Drying room is compact, wifi is free, and shared bathrooms are manageable. The onsite Male or Female onsens are great. Next time, I would plan some dinner delivery’s or microwave meals, to avoid the hectic task of getting dinner bookings with non refundable deposits and the associated travel in a spread out ski town.

Unfortunately the lodge had been plagued with gastro that they could not shake for some weeks. In future I hope they forewarn their guests of this, as it would mean I would consider changing my plans and preparing better to prevent spread to our group. Everyone in our room got sick at different times, which made for an absolute terrible experience travelling out of Hakuba by public bus. The drying room is average with limited space to hang ski clothing.

Our stay at Asuka Lodge was only for one night, but it was the most pleasant experience we’ve ever had! From the beginning, we were asked if we needed a ride from the Hakuba train or bus station. This was a surprise, as it wasn't stated in the booking information. We were picked up by Yachiyo, who provided fantastic recommendations for the best dining spots in town. She showed us around the lounge and informed us that she provides transfers to shops or onsen spots at specific times—luxury service! 😊 ​We had breakfast there for one morning; it featured freshly baked croissants with ham and cheese, which were super delicious (menu changes every day). The lodge itself is well-equipped with a dedicated area for snowboarding gear and boots, and it is conveniently located just across the road from the gondola to the slopes. Although we had a room with a private shower and toilet, we still used the on-site onsen to relax after a day on the slopes. The water was super hot, which is exactly what you need after snowboarding. ​A huge highlight was Yachiyo’s assistance with everything! The entire staff was incredibly friendly, communicative, and always ready to help. If you’re looking for an amazing place to stay with top-notch service and the perfect ski location, Asuka Lodge is the place to be. We can’t wait to return!

Location and breakfast

Room not cleaned very well

La propriétaire est très gentille. Elle est venue nous chercher à la station de train de Hakuba et nous a déposé à la fin à la station de bus. Ils ont aussi durant le sejour des navettes disponibles pour le bain public, le supermarché ou la ville d'à côté. Le onsen était excellent après une bonne journée de ski. La localisation est parfaite. Au pied des pistes, à 15min à pieds des restaurants. Le rapport qualité prix est très bon pour Hakuba, nous recommandons sans hésiter et reviendrons avec plaisir!! Le petit dej est super avant une belle journée de ski.

Une seule salle de bain en plus du onsen. Mais cela ne nous a pas gêné.

Great location close to lifts and restaurants.

Prefer toilet in the room over a share bathroom but it’s not something that would stop me going again.

Most of the staff were lovely

The games room was not usable .. everything broken or not in working order. We also had a room with water leaks in the ceiling so had to put buckets around the room as there were no spare rooms available- staff were very apologetic. There is no kitchen to use to cook your own meals

Hospitality of staff and community feel of accommodation

Min walk to Happo one and value for money

No bathroom and rooms are not really sound proof.

Good location

Less Toilet not enough for customers

7 days different breakfast, cost efficient place, and next to Happo-one ski resort

Dry room space was a little bit small for full capacity.

I stayed here for a week and really felt at home the whole time. All the management and staff are great; welcoming, cheerful, attentive and competent. My room was clean and cozy with charming views and sometimes I could even watch snow monkeys in the trees from the window. There’s great access to lifts, short walks to restaurants and shops and the hotel do plenty of shuttle services for buses, trains, shopping and nightlife.

We loved our stay here, friendly staff and great location.

Location is good and breakfasts are great.

Our room wasn’t very well cleaned, very loud where our room was located.

Staffs were friendly and helpful

No private bathroom, pay extra for rooms with private bath. Good for travellers whom really there for ski, however, as it’s uphill, it’s tiring for waking up after ski😅

Appreciate the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. The breakfast was also delicious.

Being really nit picky here, but wish one was able to ta-q-bin skis or luggage from the hotel.

Friendly staff, location, cleanliness, pick up and drop off service to bus station

Nothing

It has everything we need. Shuttle that brought us from station back to the lodge, and shuttle to brought us back to the station. Public onsen, private bathroom, toilet, comfortable bed, and very delicious breakfast too. The location is close to different bus stops too where shuttle buses will be available to carry us to different ski resorts.

Common areas, breakfast

Bra läge, otrolig personal

Gammalt hus behöver lite kärlek

Has EVERYTHING needed and everything works really well such as AMAZING breakfast, bathrooms, onsen, hairdryer, dry room, fridge and freezer, microwave, kettle, room heater, shuttle service, luggage storage… everything possible

Location is not as convenient for restaurants down the “city center”, steep hill to go back

Friendly, helpful, clean and welcoming.

Nothing

Location was good. Hot breakfast changing every day was appreciated.

The room we were given had windows over the ground level parking and non-closing curtains. Impossible to change in peace or feel a tremor of intimacy as there were people smoking on the parking and hanging out, right by our bed. The door was a DIY door, very thin, leading to the shared bathrooms. The room was not sound proofed and we were woken up all night by people passing by. The facilities are relatively clean, but old and not maintained. The food is made by staff in the kitchen regardless of health rules - some of them were sitting on the countertops, handling electronic devices while making food, with open windows for all guests to see how the food was made.

Loved everything about it!! Thank you so much for the great stay and the generous shuttle services ☺️💙 If you could add some curtains or shutters for the window, it would be helpful not to wake up too early in the morning once the sun goes up..

The overwhelming advantage with Asuka Lodge is its location, which is literally right across the street from a chair lift and skiing at Happo One. The upstairs room I was at first allocated actually had a window that overlooked the chair lift and slopes, which was great. The reason I booked a flight to Japan, somewhat at the last minute, was that the Hakuba ski areas were having their best snow season ever, and I wasn’t disappointed. Of the seven nights I stayed, I think five nights it snowed. Also, I was alone, having travelled to Japan, and the Hakuba ski area with my family in December of 2024 and 2023, and breakfasts are served on long tables that facilitated discussions with other guests. The lodge is very informal and the staff (mostly expats) are laid back.

In my haste to book an available room, I didn’t read all of the description about the hotel, including that it doesn’t have in-room bathrooms. Each floor has a mens’ and womens’ toilets, but there’s only one shower for all three floors. I thought that this would be very inconvenient, but I soon learned the best time (about 9pm) to shower and it was less hassle than I imagined.

Best value and service with Australian speaking staff & guests - amazing hot breakfast!! great lodge!!

It was all great!!

Beautifully clean, lovely staff and sublime location (right opposite ski lift). Yachan, Claire and their team are fab! Do NOT hesitate to book this accomodation. You will not be disappointed!

Nothing - perfect for a relaxed family stay.

Once again, Asuka Lodge was our top choice for our stay in Hakuba Valley and will always be our accommodation that we will continuously use every time we come to this amazing place.

There is nothing to dislike. Great places to eat. It's a ski in ski out. Can't ask for anything more.

The staff were amazing and so helpful. Everything was set up so wonderfully so we could enjoy our stay. Convenient location. Yummy breakfast and great services provided.

Walking up the hill but it was nothing too bad, especially because they pick you up with your luggage from the station.

The breakfasts everyday were great and the staff were super lovely and helpful

This hotel is such good value for money. The location was perfect - ski right to your door. The beds and rooms were very comfortable, lots of communal space. The on site onsen made the recovery time so much faster. Staff are amazing and very helpful. Easy walk to lots of food outlets and walk across the road for closest ski lift. Evergreen ski school is a short 4 minute walk for those wanting lessons. Cannot recommend this place highly enough.

good location and helpful staffs.

Nothing

Location could not be better, breakfast and service from the staff was excellent, I don't remember their names but they all went out of their way to help.

The Onsen was a little small, and there could be another shower provided.

- location close to gondola with short walk or daily shuttle bus to restaurants, Lawsons and onsen - staff are really happy and fun - clean and comfortable dining and bar/lounge areas - breakfasts, different each day and good food and coffee - pick-up/drop off to bus terminal when arriving/leaving

- beds are rock-hard - only one private shower in whole lodge (ie. 30 peeps) with 3 male / 3 female showers in the onsens. Fine for me, but not great for kids/teens

Ski in and ski out. Very convenient start to the day. Staff was very capable and friendly.

Can't think of anything worth writing about.

The rooms were very clean and comfortable. The staff are all super nice and take good care of their guests ☺️ Highly recommend!

The location is very good. Near to many eateries, ski rental shops, etc. The staffs were courteous and friendly. Decent facilities eg washing machine and dryer, game room, breakfast provided were good too.

Nothing.

Staff are very nice, accommodating and hospitable. Breakfast served were good.

Love the comfy lounge area & the free coffee, tea and hot cocoa. The staff are very friendly. Free shuttle is to bus station and Lawsons is great. Comfy rooms. Excellent breakfast!

Its a bit of a hike to get there from town. There is only 1 regular shower. There is an onsen but I dont want to bring my male child to the female shower. Overall very kinor compared to all the positives

Great lodge style accommodation with and amazing ski in/ski out location. Friendly staff will go above and beyond with the shuttle service. Great value for money.

Great location right next to the slopes, 2 min walk. The guesthouse has a great hostel like atmosphere,, lots of facilities for guests, e.g. games room, small Onsen (for max 2 people), in the dining room there are free drinks available all day, . The staff was super nice and helpful. Aditionally the guesthouse provides transport to nearby onsens and combini store plus provides shuttle to the train and bus station station. Our room was very small but clean and comfortable, the only drawback were very thin walls, so we could hear all the sounds in the corridor and in neighboring room.

Lokation, atmosphere and staff

Breakfest with beautiful view

When I come back,the back door close early,I have to bring my ski equipment to the lobby... Maybe,I was late

Breakfast was delicious and varied every day. Lovely support from the staff for all of our requests

The stairs were a bit difficult for us and our big suitcases but that was more our issue than theirs. The Onsen was a lovely addition to our stay

Definitely recommend this spot. I really appreciate the pick-up service as getting around in the snow with luggage can be a hassle. In fact, I would book here again for that reason. Thank you so much for the beautiful jazzy lounge and delicious bacon egg muffin for breakfast and the staff's attentiveness. Happy new year to everyone at Asuka!

Location was perfect. staff were extremely friendly, beds were soft and comfortable and price was great!

I really like the ambience of the place, designed for skiers! And snowboarders

amazing facilities. amazing people. amazing location. perfect for the ski season with affordable prices!

Walking distance to ski rentals and lift!
