This time I came to Hakuba to ski and stay for four nights.Pick-up and drop-off available for both check-in and check-outA colorful plated breakfast is servedThe hotel has a friendly reception, and the inquiries about the connection to each ski resort are very detailed.Super suitable for Chinese tourists and a hut where enthusiastic Taiwanese people gather.

Overall, it offers good value for money and is cheaper than other establishments in this area.I particularly appreciate its shuttle service. He was always punctual and reliable. The hotel manager was friendly and happy to share local points of interest with us.However, it is far from supermarkets and the slopes. Luckily there were the free village buses, but they weren't very practical as they were designed only to transport people between the slopes and accommodation. Additionally, there were insects (bedbugs) in the room, even in winter. Then there were some weird cracks on the wooden door (pictures below). Finally, there was no elevator. Everyone had to carry their own heavy luggage upstairs.

Our stay at the Apricot was wonderful. The host and staff were super helpful whenever we had questions and the location is just up the road from the Main Street in Echoland.

Location is a bit far away from the main areas for eating etc. Our stay here was pleasant but it is a very noisy place. Our room was above the front door and beside the stairs so you could hear everything and every person come and go.

Stayed at this hotel over Christmas, the property seemed cute and cozy, but the atmosphere is lackluster. This is just a theory, but my companion and I got the feeling the hotel was set up/decorated by locals then purchased by an investor.Staff wasn’t particularly friendly, and wasn’t able to answer our questions about local activities, so don’t count on them for recommendations. On our second night, a large family took over the dining room to make hot pot, so we weren’t able to enjoy the common space like we had planned to. Room was comfortable enough, bathroom is tiny (though not unusual for Japanese hotels), shower water teetered between hot and lukewarm water. Breakfast is pretty but very bland. Overall, it’s not a bad place to stay, but you can probably get more for your money elsewhere.

Features of Apricot PensionEach room is a suite with its own bathroom (including soaking tub).Only open in winter, not open in summerThere are restaurants, bars, and laundry rooms (coin-operated)The entire B&B is very clean. As soon as you enter the B&B, you need to take off your shoes directly at the door or put on indoor slippers. It feels like going home.There is a public restroom in the lobby on the first floor, so you don’t have to go back to your room to use the restroom while chatting, which is very convenient.The lobby provides microwaves and hot water kettles for everyone to make noodles, or buy supermarket food to heat up.I really like my stay here. The pillows are very good and the room has many windows that provide good lighting. Overall it's very clean and it's OK to walk barefoot on the ground.Regarding the Internet, I was a little worried about whether the Internet speed on the mountain would be very slow at first, but in fact the Internet speed here is very fast, faster than the Internet speed at my home T^T, so there is no need to worry about Internet access at all. oh! The Wi-Fi in the entire building of the B&B is very smooth, and the connection is not disconnected from the rooms in the annex to the social hall. One night, I happened to have a meeting with my colleagues. Because I was afraid of disturbing my roommates, I carried my laptop from the annex to the social hall. Hall, there is no disconnection problem!

Very good hotel, the saloon is large and comfortable.It’s a great choice whether it’s winter or summer.The location is deeper in the Baima Village B&B area. It is more convenient if you need to drive (the hotel staff can also drive to pick you up if you need to move around), and the surrounding area is relatively quiet and quiet.
