I stayed there on a weekday in early September. The rooms were not full, but as a foreigner, I paid someone living in Japan to book for me. Turns out, I could have booked it myself once I landed in Japan. They only accept bookings via phone, so that's a bit inconvenient for foreigners.
Overall, it was great. I had a small curry rice for dinner, and since I'm not a big eater, it was enough for me. For breakfast, I had two buns and a pack of coffee. The staff were friendly, and Ms. Nagai speaks fluent English, so communication was not a problem. The toilet is outside the hut, and you are provided with a sleeping bag and a futon.
The hike to the summit takes less than 30 minutes, which is great. I highly recommend this place.
Price: 9000 yen on weekdays, including dinner and breakfast.
Check-in: 7:00...
Read moreEnglish follows 7/30〜31に、小学生2人(7歳、10歳)と一緒に宿泊しました。別の山小屋に宿泊予定でしたが、予定を変更してこちらに宿泊。変更できて本当によかったです。 宿に到着し、チェックインの時に、従業員の方が「ザックをお預かりします」と言って、まず先にザックを下ろすことができ、靴を脱いだり子供の手伝いをするのにとてもスムーズでした。 その後、夕食時間や起床時間の説明を受け、寝室へ。子供がいたからか、部屋の角の部分が用意されており、親としては子供達がふざけてお隣の人にぶつかったり、寝相が悪くて蹴ったりする心配がなくなり、ホッとしました。夕飯は、子供達が大好きなカレーで、1杯ずつでは足りず、おかわりを注文。しっかり食べてくれました。就寝時間直前に、下の子が頭痛と吐き気を訴え、嘔吐。従業員の方が、色々なアドバイスをくださって、寝る場所も他の登山者の方とは別の1階部分に移動させてくれ、湯たんぽも用意してくださり、ぐっすり寝て、翌朝には回復していました。おかげで子供達は無事に登頂、下山することができて、最高の登山を経験することができました。 My boys(7&10) and I stayed here 7/30-7/31. I highly recommend you to stay here because one of worker speaks really good English and all workers will take care of you really well. When we got there, first thing they did was took our backpacks. It was good release for my shoulders and easy to take my shoes off and I was able to help my boys. And we go thru basic rules at the hut in English. (We are American/Japanese married and speaking English most of the time) Ms.Nagai is the one go thru rules with us and her English is really good. If you are English speaker, you will have ZERO issue communicating with her. The place you are going to sleep is one sleeping bag size per person. Shoulder to shoulder. They were hanging white cloth in between different groups so we had some privacy. If you got cold at the night, they give you extra blanket. But during our stay, my younger one got high altitude sickness and he threw up. The guy caught my son’s vomit helped my son to calm down. Asked us to go out side and get fresh air. He gave him a plastic bottle with hot water so he can stay outside comfortably and moved us to the downstairs where we don’t have lots of people sleeping with and my son can get more oxygen. My son got better in the morning and we were able to make it to the summit and safely back to home. I really appreciate what they done for us and gave my boys a such a great experience and memories in...
