Natural Pension Pumpkin is located in a great area within walking distance to the convenience store and several shuttle bus stops. Eiko serves beautiful vegan / vegetarian food and will cater for all sorts of allergies if informed beforehand. Her attention to detail is appreciated and the rooms and amenities were spotless. Rooms were also very warm. Thank you for creating a great place to stay ! Ps you’ll need to use google translate if you don’t speak Japanese or Mandarin but it’s not a problem.

I always stay here during ski season.I love this pension because the rooms are always clean and comfortable.The meals are vegan and made with vegetables and soy meat, making them beautiful and delicious.It's voluminous, so it will fill you up.They prepared a lot of rice for me, and since I was free to refill it, I ended up eating way too much.If you ask for lunch or rice balls, they will make them for you, which is very helpful.Thank you as always♪

The food is amazing! !The attention to detail in providing what is right for the children. I feel grateful for the food that I can eat with peace of mind.The owner's son is also a former top ski jumper. His humanity is also wonderful, and he embodies the idea that people grow up through food and environment.This time, I stayed in mid-October, but I would also like to visit during the winter ski and board season.

My husband and I stayed here for one night. I prepared a meal for my wife, who is a vegetarian, and it seems like they take great care in everything from the ingredients to the process, so I think vegans can also enjoy the meal with peace of mind. Thank you very much for your delicious meal!The owner is very nice. I sincerely hope that there will be more shops like this.We took a walk around Hakuba, took a bath in a nearby hot spring, had a meal at Pumpkin, and stayed the night. It looks like it will become a standard course.I would definitely like to visit again.

I last used the hotel several years ago, but I still remember how well they treated me even though it was a sudden stay.I only had the breakfast, but it was so delicious that from now on, whenever I see vegan text, I buy it even if it's expensive lol.When I called to make a reservation, I was told, ``I can't even serve eggs, is that okay?'' However, unless you're a big fan of gourmands, I think you'll be satisfied with the food. Even if you are a big fan, it might be a good idea to have just breakfast for later study.Although I don't have many opportunities, this is the number one inn I would like to stay at again.However, it may be a good idea to bring your own shampoo and conditioner. If it hasn't changed from before, I had a hard time washing my hair because it didn't suit me lol

My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights and 3 days.This inn accommodates vegans, vegetarians, macrobiotics, etc.As other people have written, the hostess's personality and the food are really wonderful.Although the inn is not new, it is very clean and comfortable and I am very satisfied★★★★★You can also use it for just a meal (reservation required), so it's worth going (^^)In Japanese cuisine, enzyme brown rice cooked in a clay pot is chewy!Natural yeast bread baked in a stone oven has a delicious taste that is different from ordinary bread.You can also order rice balls for lunch at the ski resort.(200 yen for brown rice, 150 yen for brown rice)There were various alcoholic options such as organic beer and organic wine, and non-alcoholic options such as homemade enzyme juice, organic coffee, and tea.The shampoo and conditioner used at the inn are all plant-based and unscented, so you can use them with confidence.From JR Hakuba Station, it takes about 5 minutes by taxi (1,340 yen) and 25 minutes on foot. There is a 7-Eleven 5 minutes walk from the inn.To access the ski resort, there is a stop called "Cultured" located 5 minutes walk away, and you can take a shuttle bus to Happo-one, Hakuba Goryu, Tsugaike, Iwatake, etc. (Both free and paid options available)*Bus stop timetables can be searched online for "Hakuba Shuttle Bus," but we recommend contacting us as times may change in response to the coronavirus.A beautiful dog named Sora-chan is in the back of the garden (far from the entrance). He is a clever man who barks to notify you when someone approaches the inn (^^)There is also a drying room for ski and snowboard equipment.There aren't many accommodations this nice! !

I stayed here while skiing in Hakuba Happo. Easy access from all Hakuba ski resorts. In the summer, you can also go to Mt. Hakuba and Tsugaike Nature Park. A very homely and friendly mother, a pension that uses natural foods that are gentle on the body, and no additives. This means that you can also consult with us regarding food allergies. It's worth eating natural food dishes that will satisfy even those without allergies. There is also a day-trip hot spring nearby, so it's a good idea to take a bath there. I got a discount ticket. Wi-Fi available. The password is given to the owner.
