Great spot to stay. Some works going on to renovate the place, but this is reflected in the price so no issues there. Could do without the terrible guitar playing one night while trying to sleep haha! Excellent location with the bus stopping right outside. Would happily stay again.

Great stay at Powder Temple - our room was awesome with a big bed and two great big windows and our own heater.The property is undergoing renovations at the moment but there is tons of potential! Awesome industrial kitchen, eating area, living room and bar. The ski room has its own heater so all your gear can dry for the next morning.Property is located directly on the bus route so easy to get a bus. 7-11 is a 5 min walk down the hill!

This place feels like home as soon as you walk in. The place is under renovation so expect a few things being done on the building during your stay atm. Management and staff are very welcoming and honest about the building . The best way to describe the hotel is it's like staying at a friend's house.More importantly the beds are comfortable the rooms are warm and the service is great. Cheap stay if your on a budget and easy access to the mountains due to a shuttle bus just outside. A quick walk to the 711 and cooking facilities in the building are great.Can't wait to return in the future to see the progress of all the renovations

This was our 2nd time staying here. We booked this season, last season when we were still there! With free cancellation till a couple of months out, it was a no brainer. Jacob was super helpful and accommodating. They are still in Reno's for some parts but the rooms are spacious, comfy, some have ensuites which is amazing and heaters. They also have a great communal lounge area and free wifi. The Hakuba Valley Snow buses stop right out the front, so no walking whatsoever, can take a bus to any resort. Bottom of the street is 7/11 with an ATM, snacks and a pick up location for the Hakuba Night Demand taxi which makes eating out super easy. Close to Echoland (we walked it a couple of times).

It was my first time staying there, but it was under renovation.It was a pity that there was no TV in the room. The low price was very good.
