The staff was really helpful and there was a free shuttle onsite. The room was spacious and clean. There is also a nice onsen at the hotel. The Sakka ski lift is within walking distance. Overall great comfortable stay! Thanks to Joanie and the staff for great service and warm hospitality!

Everything about our stay at Wadano Forest Hotel was as good, or better than expected. An escape, respite and adventure, in the Habuka winter wonderland. Joanie did a wonderful job of making us feel welcome and ensuring everything went smoothly.

6/10 Good

It’s super close to a chair lift up Happo Mountain and a fantastic restaurant, The Rabbit Hole. Also close walking distance from other bus services. The Hot Pot meal was sensational! They’re very rigid with the hotel shuttle service, specifically if you’re not an “apartment resident”. It can be quite rowdy if people staying in room above. Was a bit unclean and not exactly value for money. Would suggest booking direct and packing ear plugs.

4/10 Fair

Very disappointing stay. the website says they offer dinner so we booked dinner for every night, which was confirmed by the hotel. When we got there, the front desk told us that the chef wasn't free the first two nights so we don't have dinner for the those nights. They were not apologetic and just told us to go somewhere else.. bathrooms were also tiny. Almost impossible to help my toddler bathe. Room service was also non existent. We had to take out our own trash, which I've never had to do at a hotel.

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

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.

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.
