Our take
Hakuba Highland Hotel is a straightforward three-star whose real draw is bathing: communal bathhouses, an open-air onsen and private baths, all with mountain views. There is also a restaurant, a fitness centre and a gift shop. I would book it for skiers who want a Japanese bathing routine at the end of the day and do not need slopeside luxury, and I would plan transport to the lifts. An 8.4 from over 1,100 guests shows a steady standard.
- Make sure to try the open-air onsen; it is a highlight after a day in the mountains
- Enjoy a meal at the hotel restaurant for convenient and authentic local flavors
- Take advantage of the transfer service to easily reach the ski resorts and explore Hakuba

Why guests love itHakuba Highland Hotel is straightforward, but the mountain views and the open-air onsen made it memorable for our family. Soaking outdoors with snow around us was the kids' favourite part of the whole trip. The communal bathhouses were relaxing, and private baths were available when we wanted more privacy. The restaurant made dinner easy, there is a fitness centre, and the gift shop was perfect for last-minute souvenirs.
