Fantastic staff and service. Shuttle was very convenient for mornings and evening dinner plans. Proximity to Happo hard to beat. Would stay again!

The location is a bit off, about 5 minutes walk up hill from the last shuttle bus stop, and the breakfast is disappointing.

We stayed here 6 years ago under different owners so we came again this season. It's a lovely hotel with lovely staff. We love the onsen.

Very helpful staff. Warm and spacious rooms. A few more breakfast option would be good. More hanging space in the room for the ski season a must. Good stay.

Dear guest, Thank you so much for your review and feedback. We have since added more variety to our breakfast selection and have also added more clothes hanging space in the ski room. We will also provide extra potable clothes rail if needed in the room/apartment. Thank you again and it has been a pleasure looking after you. We look forward to welcoming you back again!

Hotel is in a quite location. Block F of Wadano. Close to the Sakka chair (5-10 min walk) and close to Genki-Go bus stop (4-5 min walk). Hotel is new and is clean with an onsen. Negatives are that there is little to no dinner options nearby (walking distance) so you will likely need to go into Happo town to eat - dont forget to reserve. Only other negative is the hotel seemed to have an odd noise to do with either hot water or sewage draining not sure which. The noise is enough to keep you awake.

Hi, Thank you for your review, we really appreciate your feedback. As for the restaurants, there are quite a good variety to choose from, they are within walking distance or with free pick-up. We offer dinner recommendation and booking at the front desk. As for the plumbing noise, we have identified the cause and have turned off the unneeded pippings after 9pm. Hope the above helps, and thank you again for staying with us. Warm regrads, WFH Team

Great place to stay, comfortable, roomy and clean. Bit far from the main area ( shops and grocery stores) but the lodge will take you around in their own vans, alternatively you can take the shuttle bus to the slopes. Walking distance to Sakke slope and spicy rental is down the street.

Hotel staffs were very attentive and efficient to our needs. One of the staff, KC, went extra miles and out of his ways to help us out with everything. Highly recommended to stay here. Location is very convenient and accessible to bars, restaurants and ski areas. We had a wonderful experience at wadano forest hotel. Would definitely go back to stay again!
