Отель Pension Starlight Azumi, Хакуба, Япония

Great location about 5 min away from the Kokusai lift. All of the building is warmed up, and the restaurant and lounge area are super cozy, with beautiful tables and a fireplace. The room is simple but spacious, and electric blanket is provided. All of the property is super clean, even the dry room, and there is no curfew. The family of the owners is super hospitable: we were treated with soba on New Year's Eve, and I was taken by car to the bus terminal and to the station. They made their best to make me feel at home and I am super thankful to them. Looking forward to my next stay.

I had been staying in the pension for 5 nights and love everything about it, starting from the welcoming of owners and staff, their kindness, and assistance in any situation. I was impressed when we were invited to try/share japanese traditional New Year eve's dish (Toshikoshi soba).

Breakfasts were tasteful and nicely served (I like the yogurt and homemade jams the most). On reserving my trip, I was worried a bit about the queue to the shower. I need to admit that I had never been waiting to take a shower. Additional plus of the facility is its common area, where I was enjoying the fireplace and calmness.

Additionally, the pension is located just a few min by walk, even in boots and with all skiing gears, from the lift/shuttle bus stop.

I got what I wanted, a great combination of skiing and Japanese traditions.

We had a wonderful stay at this charming pension. The place is incredibly homely, with so many comforts including equipped kitchenette and front sitting room (with fireplace). The hosting family was very attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. Their hospitality truly made our experience special. Also a very convenient location for happo one, rhythm snowsports and some nice restaurants.

This place has warm and welcoming vibes. Ito san kindly picked me up from the train station and his lovely wife didn't hesitate to help me by calling up the courier service when I found out my snowboard had been delayed with the delivery and wasn't sure when it would arrive. I really appreciated it.

The location was close proximity to the slopes, useful kitchenette, cute little onsen, good bed/floor heating
