Quiet end of Happo one and a quick walk to the Sakka ski area is great for beginners.

Disliked: Cleanliness
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.
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.
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!
Very helpful staff. Warm and spacious rooms. A few more breakfast option would be good. More hanging space in the room for the ski season a must.
Good stay.
The chalet had a homey feel and unlike the big hotels staff were eager to make your stay enjoyable and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you Joanie and team we had a fabulous time! Fiona Robinson, Perth WA
