“Pet project could be great with a little more effort”
This pension has a bar "half note" in the basement & the same staff run the bar & the accommodation. This gives the place a really fun vibe, but also it's being run by young people that seem perpetually hungover. The other standout item was the feather doonahs - so airy and warm - some of the best sleeps I've had in months despite the challenging conditions. There's a communal fridge in the kitchen and a washing machine in the basement with powder supplied.

“Best stay of our trip”
Fantastic place. The staff are incredibly friendly, kind, and inviting. Made some great friends and the bar below the accommodation was a bonus - it went off every night, and we made some great memories. Great location for skiing too - well, a little walk, but nothing too bad.

“Great Location, staff and cozy vibes”
The hostel had the best vibe, staff were super friendly and helpful. Cozy common room with plenty of room. Heater in the room was perfect for drying out wet socks. Location is great as it is close to the mountain and the bar downstairs is great. Definitely see myself coming back

“The best place in Hirafu”
Look nowhere else as this place is perfect. It’s like a beautiful European chalet in the heart of hirafu. The location is perfect, the beds couldn’t be more comfortable and to top it off Nocki was the best host - so kind and even drove us to the station at 6am. The beds were insanely comfy and the fireplace was always blazing after a good days skiing. The shuttle was just outside too which is perfect. Loved and can’t recommend enough.

“A fantastic lodge exuding fantastic ambience in an excellent location in middle hirafu. We will be back…very soon. Domo”
Pension fullnote is a fantastic lodge style accommodation w comfortable beds, communal lounge/dining/fireplace. Our room (206) faced Mt Yotei and she greeted us on quite a few mornings n even some afternoons. Toilets on each floor were spotless. Communal sinks (M n F) on first floor only. Breakfast was simple but def ample. The staff esp Nyokki were excellent n very helpful about hirafu, restaurant recommendations, picking us up n taking us to the Welcome Hirafu Centre. Directly opposite the free bus shuttle was super convenient. Great restaurants all around our lodge w lots of choice plus food truck areas n konbinis within 5 min walk. Access to a microwave n fridge in the communal area was fantastic. A free washing machine n slow dryer were located in the basement. Showers in basement were always clean. Didn’t have to wait. You can also access the downstairs Halfnote Pub from the basement and go to your room the same way. My husband thought this was the highlight of the lodge. Great facilities for this price point.

“Shoutout Nyokki”
The lodge manager Nyokki was the absolute best and most of the other staff were amazing too. We got picked up from the Hirafu Welcome Centre by one of the staff because Nyokki was busy that evening, and on the day of checkout, Nyokki offered to drive us to Kutchan station at whichever time suited us. Free breakfasts were great too. For the first few nights of our stay, the other guests definitely helped make the whole trip more memorable 🥰👍
