    Perfectly located in the middle of the ski areas for our Epic Pass. The hosts didn't speak much English but were so lovely to 'communicate' with and so very eager to please. Top marks for everything!

    Location to the closest convenience store or pharmacist was 15/20 minutes away and walking on the snow at night was no fun at all. On the other hand, there are a few decent restaurants nearby.

    Located close to the free ski pick up point (i.e. Alpine Chalet and hotel owner (Mr Yoshi) is super2 friendly. If we ever go to Hakuba again, this hotel will be my first choice.

    Only minor issue was it was 10 minute walk to echoland - however this was more than compensated by the friendly host who even gave us a ride to the bus station

    Lovely atmosphere Fantastic host - Yoshi san Delicious breakfast Very clean facilities Outdoor and indoor bath were both fantastic - very good to relax after a day skiing

    Ringo-Noki is the most beautiful little Lodge, with only around 6 rooms, in Hakuba run by the very lovely couple of Yoshi-San and his wife Kayo. Everything was perfect about this place, the decoration, the service provided by Yoshi and Kayo, the delicious breakfast, the cleaness, the beautiful onsen to use everyday after a full day of activities. When arriving you were directly greeted with tea and the stunning common area. All rooms also have coffee and tea for you to make and use at your convenience. Right next to the lodge is the bus stop for the free shuttle and within walking distance you have several nice and delicious restaurants, cafés and bakery and other shops. Can highly recommend this location.

    I would highly recommend anyone to stay here. Upon arrival, Yoshi and his wife made the place feel very homely. We were greeted so kindly and given some tea to sip on by the fireplace, as we were checking in. The whole house is super cute and our room was serviced daily and kept extremely clean. The shared shower and outdoor onsen is an amazing experience which my partner and I loved. We also added on breakfast each morning, made by Yoshi. I would highly recommend trying his breakfast! It was always super delicious, he would make his own bread. There was also eggs, with some salad, and some fruit, some yoghurt too and there was always some juice and coffee to help yourself too also. Super healthy and delicious!  Overall we felt super looked after and cared for. On our last day, Yoshi even gave us a lift to the Hakuba station. Thank you very much for your hospitality Yoshi, you made our trip! We would definitely come back, and stay here again!

    The hosts were the nicest people, very accommodating. The house and the rooms are beautiful and you immediately feel at home. Everything was spotlessly clean. There is a hot spring that you can use privately once a day. A very delicious homemade breakfast is served every morning. The location was great, in the center of everything and 1 minute to the bus stop for all ski buses.

    Nothing- aside from maybe guilt about how hard the hosts work!

    It was basically next to the bus stop to get to any of the 3 main ski mountains so very convenient. A private onsen that we could use daily. The hosts are next level amazing. Yoshi didn’t seem to ever stop from waking to sleeping (if he slept at all) and were so helpful and generous, even getting our ski gear up from the drying room for us. The property was always clean and warm and the rooms are all you need when you’re out most of the day skiing etc.

    Rooms were extremely clean and maintained daily. Hosts were extremely kind and helped us immensely, making sure that we had everything we needed during the stay. Breakfast was delicious and the ambience in the morning was so soothing (before a big day of snowboarding). Also, I left something at the accommodation and the hosts drove out to provide it back to me. Really appreciate this and amazing stay overall!! I really recommend this accommodation to all travellers!!

    Highlight of our accommodation in Japan. Great 2 night stay with hosts Yoshi and Kayo. Yoshi was a great host and made us feel welcome from the minute we arrived, he speaks basic English also which helps. Super clean accommodation. Comfortable beds. Nice outside onsen (inside onsen also but we didn't use). Beautiful fireplace in common area.

    The owner was exceptionally lovely. I couldn’t possibly say anything negative about this place. I was sick for two of the nights and he 1. Drove me to the hospital/GP, and 2. Drove us to our next accommodation, as I was too sick to do either. Cannot thank him and his wife enough! The property was also a truly wonderful experience.
