Even though the mountain hut is located in such a high place, I am very grateful that it is in good condition. At night, everyone can gather around the fireplace, chat, and relax. The rice was also very delicious.The futon was a soft duvet, warm and very comfortable.However, the room is quite cold.

Many of the employees at the mountain villa are young, and when you talk to them, they respond in a friendly manner. The freshly cooked rice was very delicious. At night, those who make the effort to climb can enjoy a spectacular view of the starry sky.

The sunset and the sea of clouds are so satisfying. The climb down to the inn towards Okuho is steep and rocks roll loudly. Remember to wear a helmet

Hotakadake Sanso was the first mountain hut I ever used, and I had very fond memories of being able to enjoy the beautiful sunset. Unfortunately, since this is my first time using it, I cannot compare it with other mountain huts. I think that every time I use a different mountain hut in the future, it will become an indicator of whether it is better or worse than this one.If I had to say what was disappointing, it was that it was a very large mountain hut and it was a very busy season on mountain days, so there was no interaction with the staff at all. Dinner was delicious and I was able to get a second helping, but the portion of the Hoba sushi bento I ordered instead of breakfast was a bit small and didn't suit my taste.

The scenery is outstanding.You can climb Mt. Okuhotaka in about 1 hour.I had the luxury of drinking beer without thinking about anything while looking down on Karasawa and looking at the mountains in the distance.Dinner and breakfast were also delicious and satisfying. The rooms and toilets were also clean.Although it is a large mountain hut used by many people, it is not a lord's business. The customer service of the staff was also very polite.This is the first time I've seen a mountain hut that accepts cards for payment.

The mountain hut just below the summit is perfect for watching the sunrise in Okuhotaka.

The location is ideal. ①Although it is located at an altitude of 2996m, it has a maximum capacity of 250 people. ② It is easy to go back and forth to Mt. Okuhotaka where you can enjoy the rocky area. ③You can also stay in a tent. 60 zhangHe is a pioneer in solar power generation and has been watching videos of mountains under fluorescent lights for a long time. Currently, water is free, credit cards can be used, reservations are required for lodging (no tents required), and live cameras are available.

This mountain hut is my favorite mountain hut. The location and scenery are of course important, but the staff are very kind and I am very grateful. I'm almost 60 years old now, but I want to go climbing with my wife every year as much as possible.

I love Hotakadake Sanso.But there is one disappointing thing.It's about the 100th anniversary tenugui sale.I couldn't buy it at the mountain villa, so I followed the instructions from Hotakadake Sanso, but every time I received a call, it was sold out. Finally, I received an email informing me that the item was on sale, but for some reason I was only notified that I was already logged in, but I couldn't enter the shop, and finally received an email saying that the sale had ended. I don't know why I couldn't log in to the shop, and I can't contact them directly, so I had no choice but to write a review. I wanted a 100th anniversary hand towel.

I stayed here on July 30, 2023. After reading Living in Hotaka, I dreamed of staying at the Hotaka Mountain Villa in Jutaro Shindo, and my dream finally came true. I was happy to be able to stay at the hotel on their 100th anniversary. Not only the food, but the Hoba sushi in the bento box was the best. We had a wonderful time relaxing on the stone-paved terrace.

This is heaven, a wonderful mountain hut built by people who love Hotaka.The rooms and tents are wonderful, the water is delicious, the people are so nice, and I'm so grateful to be in this place.Relaxing on the stone-paved terrace on a sunny day is the best way to spend your time.It's not famous for ramen, but it's really delicious!Souvenirs from the thoughtful selection of shopsThe restrooms are clean and the lights are on at night, so you don't have to worry.Breakfast and dinner are delicious, and the Hoba sushi for lunch is special, and the vinegared rice is gentle on a tired body.Coffee is also quite delicious.It's a place you'll want to visit again and again, observing the mountain rules and etiquette, and being in perfect physical condition and equipped.
