The property has mountain and garden views, and is 10 km from Tsugaike Kogen Ski Area. The guest house offers rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi.

Location of the lodge was great, easy walking distance into Echoland and a snow shuttle bus stop not far from the front door. The lodge is well appointed and the family room is very accommodating. Breakfast was great served in the lounge area which was available for use at any time with complimentary tea/coffee. The owner was so helpful with suggestions and tips prior to our arrival and the staff looking after the lodge were so friendly, very helpful and extremely customer focused. I would highly recommend the lodge.

At Belnia Pension, guests can purchase ski passes, rent ski equipment and use the luggage storage service. A garden and vending machines can also be found on site.

We were thoroughly impressed by the owner's homemade breakfast. For the price, the attention to detail and quality of ingredients truly stood out. Each morning we had different meals made from local and seasonal ingredients. The small dining room was beautiful. The owner is very friendly and seems to have much experience traveling around the world. There are two lovely hot spring baths. Enjoyed the baths so much.

Situated just a 5-minute walk from Hakuba Goryu Ski Resort, Pension Bonnard is a cute European-style accommodation with cosy guest rooms. It features a garden that changes its colour each season.

Carpeted rooms at Bonnard Pension come with a flat-screen TV with satellite channels and an en suite bathroom.

Pension Bonnard is amazing value for money. On a five week ski trip in which I stayed at 5 pensions - all of which were very good value - Bonnard was by some margin the best value for money. The host Take and his wife were very helpful and seemed to anticipate my needs even before I asked for help. For example, Take picked me up from the bus at about 10pm and without my asking drove home via a convenience store so that I could buy food etc. Take and his wife would inform me which nights were likely to be busy at restaurants and book a table for me. There are several good restaurants nearby, surprisingly not all were listed on Google maps so it pays to ask the hosts. The breakfasts were the best - again by a considerable margin - of the five pensions at which I stayed. Take cooked excellent five course Japanese meals on the weekend at a cost of about 3300 Yen per person. My room was comfortable with its own heater and bathroom. The building is old with mainly wooden floors but it is exceptionally clean as well as warm. There is an excellent Japanese bath downstairs that guests can use. It has two showers and the bath is about 2 meters square so there is room for several people. The bathroom door locks so couples can comfortably bath together. The water is continuously circulated and refreshed in the bath so besides being fun it is safe and clean. It is a short walk to the lifts and gondola at Goryu

    Great location just a short 100 walk to the nearest ski lift and near to restaurants, ski shops etc. Lovely well appointed apartment - more space than expected and perfect as snow accommodation. On arrival our hosts collected us from a nearby hotel where the bus dropped us; and there was a daily ride to the supermarket or restaurants if we needed it. Super friendly and helpful hosts.

    Nanjo is a great host and made us feel very welcome. He also picked us up and dropped us back to Hakuba station - greatly appreciated when your carrying a lot of snow gear. Accomodation is very quaint and in a quiet area. Private onsen was fantastic after a hard day skiing.

    Very clean, roomy and comfortable with all the modern facilities required included. Great location in a quiet area but only 150m from centre of Echoland. Patrick was the best host I have encountered. He provided heaps of advice on ski fields, restaurants and anything we wanted to know about the area. Patrick was always contactable and provided bus station pick up and drop off as well as grocery shopping trips.

    We loved stayed at Mojo Lodge in summer. It was very quiet and relaxing. We enjoyed the surrounding nature on the bikes we borrowed from them for free. We had an amazing host with Danielle, she always made sure we were happy and was really helpful and charming!

    We stayed 3 nights at Keimichi Guest House in summer and had the best time. The host is very attentive and friendly, the house is spacious, absolutely clean, the capsule beds are comfortable. Laundry was cheap (300) and they even have free rental bikes which was perfect to go around. Would definitely recommend staying there to anyone! 10/10

    It was agreat house, spacious, all new, good large kitchen, good nice sitting area with nice large TV screen including Netflix. Bedrooms with nice quiet aircon and very good beds. 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms (excellent bathrooms by the way). Nice veranda where you can sit. It was summer, so no ski season but it is next to the ski-slopes. As cherry on the cream they have private beach-spot at a nearby lake, ideal place to cool down or do some water activities they made available for you. And a great host...Mr Dan.
