Superb snowlodge that's close to the Hakuba resorts (Happo 1 being about 5 mins bus ride away!). For those skiing, the bus-stop is right outside the lodge which helps. …

What can I say about Snowlines that doesn't sound like I'm just gushing about our wonderful stay here?Maybe it was the time of year (Early March), there weren't too many people about so that was great for us personally, however in general the owners Stephen and Sarasa go above and beyond for their guests. We were made to feel very welcome, picked up from the bus station, given a walking tour of the facilities, shuttle to ski fields provided in the mornings, breakfast buffet was always tasty, they had nightly meal options to opt into and if not they had plenty to say about local restaurants and could even facilitate a booking for you.The room we stayed in was the Japanese style, so we had separate futon mattresses we pushed together. The room was sufficient for space, and there was a toilet and sink also. The bathroom was separate for showering (the on-site onsen was where we went daily). We didn't use the laundry facilities, but they were available.The lodge boasts large common areas, multiple comfortable seating spaces, and a bar that is open every night until 11 pm (if you can stay up that late).The other staff were all very polite and attentive also.The location was fantastic. We did not have a car, utilising the local buses that run in the area from the ski resorts was simple and Stephen even makes sure you know how to get home from every place he drops you off from of a morning. It is a very shirt walk to Echoland where other accomodations, restaurants and some ski retail shops are. There's a bottle ship at the end of the road, too. They just ask that you don't byo at the lodge.

Our stay at Snow Lines Lodge in Hakuba was nothing short of exceptional! Nestled in the breathtaking landscapes of Hakuba, this lodge offers a cozy and welcoming atmosphere that immediately makes you feel at home. The traditional Japanese dinners prepared on-site including The Sukiyaki and Nabe were not only delicious but also incredibly nourishing, offering a perfect end to a day of adventure in the snow. Each meal was prepared with care, showcasing the rich culinary traditions of Japan and using fresh, local ingredients that highlighted the region's flavors. Lodge staff were fantastic, providing insider tips on the mountains based on condition, and friendly hospitality. Other guests that were in the lodge were easy to get along with and ran into some old friends, Small world! I highly recommend Snow Lines Lodge to anyone looking for a blend of comfort, culture, and culinary excellence in Hakuba. A 5-star experience all around!
