Magical
autumn
stay!
The
property
is
absolutely
gorgeous:
forest,
water
streams,
interior
and
exterior
design,
spacious
rooms,
onsens.
One
can
feel
really
tranquil
there
and
connect
with
nature.
Staff
was
friendly
and
helped
with
luggage.
There's
so
much
to
do
around
the
property
-
beautiful
hikes
and
nature
was
just
gorgeous.
Location
of
the
hotel
is
absolutely
grand!
Also
hotel
served
complimentary
green
curry
and
miso
soup
throughout
the
day
and
before
dinner
they
served
free
wine
in
the
lobby
area.
Water
and
warm
beverages
were
available
at
all
times.
Overall,
I
would
highly
recommend
staying
in
this
hotel
if
you
are
visiting
Hakuba.
Improvement
points
(not
deal
breakers
but
somewhat
annoying):
Accommodating
dietary
requirements
-
even
though
we
asked
for
simple
amendments
to
the
menu
(no
pork
and
no
lactose)
it
resulted
in
restaurant
being
able
to
provide
only
1
type
of
menu
and
staff
were
over
challenged
with
our
request
in
general.
Luckily
the
hotel
has
2
restaurants
(French
and
Chinese),
so
they
offered
us
2
dinners
at
the
Chinese
restaurant.
But
even
though
we
had
pre-paid
dinners
in
our
booking,
we
of
course
couldn't
eat
the
same
menu
for
5
evenings,
so
had
to
dine
out
twice
(which
is
fine)
and
did
not
receive
a
discount
for
that
(not
so
fine).
Wifi
-
honestly
one
of
the
worst
Wifi
connections
ever,
constantly
dropped
and
did
not
work
in
the
restaurant
at
all
and
staff
just
explained
us
that
it
is
because
of
the
number
of
guests
using
it.
Languages
-
even
though
it
did
not
result
in
any
difficulties
for
us,
but
front
office
(reception
and
restaurants)
barely
spoke
English
-
just
keep
that
in
mind
when
booking.
Dated
interior
-
some
parts
could
benefit
from
renovation
(e.g.
restaurant
floor
and
bathrooms).
