“Absolutely incredible.”
The most beautiful accomodation we stayed in on our trip. The staff were absolutely lovely and went out of their way to make us comfortable. The restaurant downstairs was absolutely incredible. On our last day when we were going to catch the shuttle bus down to the train station, one of the lovely owners offered to drive us down there instead. I can’t recommend this place enough. Thank you so much for being so incredibly welcoming and thoughtful 🫶

“Worst nightmare in Japan for us”
Nothing, agressive owner, shouting when asking if there is a breakfast possible to my wife, complete low class hotel, bad smell everywhere, worst japanese experience of our trip, we had to leave after one day, even without refund. No idea where he got this score from.

“12/10”
Our stay at Hunter Lodge was faultless! The room was massive, well kept and came with free coffee pods daily as well as unlimited tea downstairs. The facilities were clean and functional with shared wash basins/bathroom areas. The onsen!!! Two private locked onsens are available for guest use at any time of day, we never had to wait to access the onsen and WOW was it hot. The location was perfect, placed at the top of the T-junction of the main street. Everything is within a 10 minute walk; 2x ski resorts, shuttle bus to other ski resorts, cafes and restaurants, gear hire shops, ATM, combini, etc etc.

“Snow Trip”
Staff are very friendly. Shared amenities were very clean - there were also two different sized onsen baths available for guests to use which was great after a day on the snow. A massive drying room was available for use for all guests which was great for all our snow gear. Breakfast was fantastic - we stayed for 3 days and it was a different cuisine everyday. Location was about a 100m walk to the Yodel Chairlift of Akakura Onsen ski field.

The family that run the property are so lovely and so helpful. The Rooms are actually quite large and the private onsens are a nice treat. This lodge is in a perfect location, in the middle of the busy area of akakura with bars and restaurants around. The lodge also has a restaurant attached that offers great meals - I recommend the Sukiyaki

Wonderful Cosy rustic Traditional Authentic Janpanses Hotel/Restaurant/Museam run by local hardworking family that did everything to make our stay Fantastic. Daily breakfast was excellent and the night we are in was 100%. 2x In-house complementory Onsen. So morning and night. Before and after the slopes. Couldn't have lasted a week on the slopes without it. Central to all the restaurants, bars and everything else in Akakura Onsen area
