Overall Ratings & Reviews Hakuba West Coast Inn Villa

The Owner is super nice and helpful. The rooms are cozy and warm, and the bathroom facilities very clean. Great place to stay : )

No frills, but very comfortable. Run by a lovely lady, who was very helpful. Very close to the station.

Good find for last minute in winter high season. It's basically a hostel. The common area and kitchen could be spruced up. The heater in the room was either too hot or had to be turned off. I opened windows and left it on to find the sweet spot. The bathrooms were down the hall and in a very cold hallway. Location was close to train station, close to shuttle to some resorts, Happo was 20 minutes away by walking or ¥800 on the infrequent bus. I walked. There are some decent restaurants close. Not as many as happo or Echoland, but you can walk or taxi to those places, if you have a reso, as most of them get booked out in advance in high season.

This lovely, rustic inn is conveniently located within walking distance to JR Hakuba Station, where shuttles between ski resorts and transportation to/from major cities stop. Shared area of the inn, including restrooms, showers, and a dining lounge are always nice and clean. The owner is very friendly and accommodating.

We had 5 nights here for a snowboarding trip. It's not the ritz, but was warm, clean and comfortable. The inn is a 5 minute walk to the JR station, which is good for the valley shuttle buses and a few resturants. The host Seiko was also very helpful. Would stay here again.

This is an airbnb/ hostel style. But the service and cleanliness and level of the people that book here are nothing like most hostels. The host is AWESOME! She does everything to make her guests feel good and welcome. Breakfast is simple but efficient and good. The room was cozy, clean and all amenities worked great. I would stay here again but truly, it’s the host that makes this place excellent. She truly cares for her guests.

The inn is more like a Bed and Breakfast, with the host living at the property and making breakfast for guests in her kitchen. The host was very helpful with dining and bus schedule recommendations and even helped us ship our luggage. Great place to stay if you are looking for something other than a large hotel chain.

A little hostel type inn near the train station in Hakuba, walkable distance from many shopping and dinning options, as well as close to the bus stop to take you to many hill in the area. The inn is as charming as the Seiko the owner, a sweet lady who treats you more as family than a customer. A very affordable option for the area.

The lovely host is what makes this stay excellent!

Simple. Safe. Affordable. Comfy beds. Comfy comforter. Warm. Breakfast on-site - nothing fancy, but adequate to our basic needs

Traveling on a budget, don’t plan on spending a lot of time in your room (other than sleeping), this is the place for you. West coast inn was just a short walk from the train/bus station and the late night shuttles. The bathrooms are shared with other guests but they were very clean and we never had to wait to use the facilities. The host is so sweet and more than happy to share her restaurant recommendations. The breakfast was simple but perfect fuel for a day of snowboarding. Would stay again.

Saiko (or host) was wonderful. She personally welcomed us on our arrival & showed us around the place. She provided plenty of local recommendations.

Such a lovely place to stay! The hosts are very friendly and helpful. The breakfast provided is yummy and filling with great coffee :) Highly recommend x

Very cozy and welcoming. Close to the train station. Continental breakfast was a nice addition. Host were very welcoming.

The host was extremely accommodating and kind. Her communication skills were excellent. The room was clean. This is a good option based location near ski resorts and main streets. 10 min walk to train station.

ใกล้สถานีรถไฟ/จุดจอดรถบัสที่มาจาก Nagano/รถบัสไป Happo Pond ที่พักเหมือนในรูป Seikoเจ้าของที่พัก สื่อสารภาษาอังกฤษได้ดีมากให้คำแนะนำและช่วยเหลือดีมากๆ พาเดินไปสอบถามเจ้าหน้าที่ที่สถานีรถไฟเกี่ยวกับการซื้อตั๋วให้ด้วย มีเครื่องซักผ้า น้ำร้อน อาหารเช้ากาแฟ ขนมปัง ผลไม้

The host Seiko, an mature Japanese lady is extremely hospitable and friendly. She makes you feel at home. The property is a little old but reasonably clean. Simple breakfast is provided. The room is spacious by Japanese standard. The facility is homely but not hotel standard. Bathroom and toilet is shared.

The owner was super nice

My partner and I were eager to experience the snow in Hakuba and were in search of an affordable and charming place to stay for a couple. We stumbled upon West Coast Inn, and its location turned out to be incredibly convenient for us. Situated just a 3-minute walk from Hakuba Station (also providing access to the Hakuba Free Shuttle to the Happo One Slope and other slopes), it was perfect. Seiko and her husband were delightful hosts, both fluent in English, which was helpful for us as non-Japanese speakers. Our room and the overall ambiance of the inn were delightful, and they truly made us feel at home.

Host was very accommodating
