Hakuba Snow Fox — Attraction in Hakuba

Hakuba Snow Fox is the perfect blend of charm, quirk, and comfort that makes for an unforgettable stay. The building itself feels like a delightful step back to simpler times, with its quaint aesthetic and relaxing vibe. It’s simple, but spotlessly clean and incredibly cozy—a true retreat after a day on the slopes.

The breakfast? Quirky but undeniably good—a fun little adventure to start your day. And speaking of adventures, Eric, the owner, is an absolute gem. He’s like a human guidebook with insider tips on the best spots to visit, the easiest ways to get around, and all the local secrets that make Hakuba even more special.

The communal lounge is a highlight, offering a fantastic space to meet fellow travelers from all over the world. Whether you’re swapping stories, sharing a laugh, or planning your next outing, it’s the heart of the Snow Fox experience. The staff, many of whom live on-site, are just as wonderful. Qko and Amelie, in particular, were absolute stars—friendly, helpful, and always up for an interesting chat. They truly elevated our stay!

Location-wise, you couldn’t ask for more. Hakuba Snow Fox is perfectly situated, with easy access to resorts, bars, and restaurants. The nightlife is vibrant, and great food options abound, though I highly recommend booking your dinner reservations early. That said, we managed to snag seats with just a short wait on a few occasions—totally worth it!

Absolutely wonderful homely, clean and comfortable. Eric and his team go over and above to ensure their guests are looked after. The rooms are clean, comfortable and ours had a beautiful view. The added laundry onsite, snow gear dry room and fire place in the shared lounge was a bonus.

There are two new additional cottages that can accommodate families or larger groups which are incredible! Super spacious and the most stunning views with large rooms and bathrooms along with a full size bath!

We cannot wait to return, perhaps in spring next time for...

We had a wonderful stay at Hakuba Snow Fox. The little lodge was warm and welcoming. Eric was an exceptional host, and was eager to provide local knowledge to ensure we got the best experience in Hakuba. The cosy fireplace in the evenings in the dining area was a treat, and the breakfasts were delicious. There are now two new chalets for larger group bookings with exquisite views of the surrounding mountains, large spacious rooms and bathrooms with full size tubs! We look forward to returning again. Thank you Eric and your team...
