The hotel at the entrance of Echoland is a hotel where more than 90% of inbound tourists from Australia and other countries visit, and from the interior design and the conversations you can hear while in Japan, it has the atmosphere of being at a snow resort in Europe. The guest rooms were designed 30 years ago, have unit baths, and have few electrical outlets, making them feel old compared to the more recent inspections, but if you think about it, such as bringing a USB outlet or going on a day trip, you can have a fun time. I'm looking forward to making a reservation and going to a restaurant within walking distance.

Stayed for 3 nights and absolutely loved my time here. Very friendly and helpful staff and couldn’t complain about the spacious rooms. There were many eateries and a convenience store nearby. The shuttle bus to hakuba 47 and limori area was at the doorstep of the hotel. If you needed to travel towards hakuba one or iwatake, the bus stop was a 5 mins walk from the hotel. Very convenient if you had to travel about different ski resorts. They also had free delicious instant coffee in the lounge area and a indoor ventilated area to place your snowboarding gear to dry them. The only gripe I had was that the dryer they had wasn’t too useful, had wet clothes after 4 cycles in it.

The location is great for food and catching buses to different resorts! The staff is super friendly and helpful with recommends and getting around instructions. The room is definitely the biggest I’ve ever had staying in Japan. Could fit our snowboard bags comfortably and there is a dry room for storing used gear too. Loved the yoga studio right inside and complimentary warm drinks!
