2-Star Hotels in Hakuba

Even though the owner wasn't there, the staff were incredibly helpful. The food, cleanliness, beds, and shuttle service were all top-notch. It's a very stylish hotel! Highly recommended! I'll definitely be back next time.

Wonderful Stay at Garden Pension Obogurgl We had an excellent experience at Garden Pension Obogurgl. The location is perfect—just a short walk to the Hakuba Goryu lifts, which made getting on the mountain super easy every day. The pension itself is cozy, clean, and peaceful, with a lovely garden that adds to the charm. Our room was warm and comfortable, with plenty of space for ski gear, and the communal areas had a relaxed, homely vibe. The hosts were friendly and welcoming, always happy to help with local tips and transport advice. We especially enjoyed being able to walk everywhere—whether it was to the nearby convenience stores, local restaurants, or just strolling among the beautiful pine trees. The large cherry blossom tree out the front added a special touch to the peaceful surroundings. If you're after a quiet, scenic, and welcoming place to stay in Hakuba Goryu, Garden Pension Obogurgl is a fantastic choice.

The location is very good, a few tens of meters away is a free bus stop, you can go to various ski resorts, the boss is very enthusiastic, can provide the village station shuttle and a lot of help you need, we stayed for three nights, arranged a two-story suite, The toilet kitchen living room is independent, the tatami is upstairs, very warm and warm, next time you choose to go here

The accommodation was clean, and the staff were polite and attentive. You need to bring your own toiletries. The view from the accommodation is beautiful, situated among the mountains, like a summer camp abroad. The bungalows were very comfortable and cozy.

The interior of the guesthouse is very clean overall, and the common areas are warmly decorated and furnished. There's a charcoal stove in the lobby on the first floor where you can relax on the sofa by the fire, which is very pleasant. The guesthouse has an overall feel of a vintage wooden villa. The rooms are all on the second floor, so you'll need to carry your luggage up (no elevator). The room size is small, but it's very warm inside and generally clean, though occasionally bugs appear (I encountered three). When staying at the guesthouse, it's more suitable to spend time in the first-floor lobby area (it's more comfortable). However, the guesthouse doesn't have private bathrooms or showers; they are all shared, which might be unusual for those accustomed to hotels. The guesthouse has two shared bathrooms that require booking on a sign-up sheet. Each bathroom has a shower and a hot tub, and they are very clean. Since there aren't many rooms, you won't have to queue for showers. However, the cleanliness and maintenance of the guesthouse's shared toilets could be improved. The toilet in the men's restroom on the second floor was leaking a bit, and the waste bin wasn't regularly emptied. Compared to the bathrooms, the shared toilets are still less convenient, and you might find multiple people trying to use them at once. The guesthouse owners are very welcoming and responsive, but their English is limited, so communication often requires a translation app, which can take a lot of time. If you plan to visit Goryu/47 ski resorts, you can buy discounted ski passes from the guesthouse owner for 6000 JPY/day, which is much cheaper than buying at the resort. Additionally, ski equipment rental at the guesthouse is also very affordable. Hotel Oak Tree, located next to the guesthouse (a 5-minute walk), is a free bus stop with several free shuttle buses to various ski resorts. However, you need to pay attention to the timetable (available at the guesthouse), as the bus departure times are limited, and you'll be stranded if you miss one. Other transportation options include taxis, but getting a taxi in Hakuba isn't easy; they are often unavailable (and expensive).

I made a reservation to stay on the first day of my arrival at the airport, but I couldn't make it in time because the bus to Hakuba had already left. I tried to contact the hotel but couldn't reach the staff. The staff at Trip.com contacted me and said that they couldn't contact the hotel either, so I had to cancel the hotel without getting a refund.
