We arrived at. Luna with our young adult offspring at 3am to find a warm welcome with warm rooms warm,lights on and instructions regarding  breakfast clearly explaind. Breakfast was excellent btw! This service was continued throughout our stay and David was brilliant with his advice and  taxi duties. Fantastic food in evening thoughsome evenings we went elsewhere for a change.We loved the fact that we were welcomed back to roaring fires and a warm welcome with tea or wine on our return from busy day on the slopes with added use of a drying room for our equipment and a complimentary 
 laundry room.
Brilliant location a minutes walk from ski lift.On our return to Hakuba we will return to Luna.

We really enjoyed our stay at Luna- it exceeded our expectations and we felt very fortunate to have stayed there. Luna is a very comfortable,  convenient and friendly place to stay.  David, the manager, and his wife Yumi and staff made us feel welcome, often going out of their way to provide help at the hotel or resort. The rooms were spotlessly clean and serviced. The breakfast suited every member of our party and the convenience of being able to chose have dinner at the hotel restaurant was an added bonus. The lifts are an easy and short walk away. The setting in the forest is lovely and peaceful but it easy to get in to the centre by resort or hotel shuttle. The drying room is capacious and there are laundry facilities-always very welcome on a ski holiday. A big, big thanks to David and Yumi and staff. We would definitely come back given the chance.

Lovely staff who genuinely wanted us to enjoy our stay. Very comfortable beds in basic but clean rooms. Great common area with nice amenities. We felt very at home. While the location is great for skiing - lift is right across the street, it was very hard to get into town, to grocery, etc.

This is a small, boutique property without the hefty price tag.  We skied in late Feb 2017, excellent snow still at Hakuba. Luna Hotel is so close to the Happo One lifts, a five minute walk in ski boots and you are home!  Great position and definitely one of the closest properties to the lifts.

Our room was great with a huge bed, fantastic for collapsing in after a hard day's skiing.  The small ensuite is adequate with a little bath, enough to soak for 10 minutes.  Our room was on the lower level, very warm with heater in the room as well and window looking out through the Wadono Forest.  The Luna is very close to a variety of different restaurants, small bars and places to eat so you do not have to eat at the hotel restaurant if you choose not to.  The breakfast included in the package at the Luna was basic but adequate.  The lounge / bar area at the Luna Hotel is lovely, very warm and great to relax by the fire with a good red and meet new friends.

Overall, a great property although the evening meals at the Luna restaurant were lacking.  Very westernised, schnitzel, goulash with the same menu nightly, not much variety which was disappointing as sometimes you just don't want to go outside into the cold again.   Would like to have had some more traditional Japanese food or even some good hearty soups, pea and ham with crusty bread..... spaghetti Bolognese, lasagne or more meals with vegetables.  Basic meals like this would have been more sustainable after skiing all day. 

Apart from that, I could recommend the property, David was the manager when we stayed earlier this year and he couldn't do enough to help.  David was excellent from meeting us to assisting with any organisation that we needed and the team he led were also very good and helped out always when requested.

Thanks David for a truly enjoyable holiday.  We loved Hakuba :)

We had a lovely week skiing Happo-one and were grateful for the assistance from David and his staff. The proximity to the lifts is excellent, basically across the road to children's easy slopes. There are enough restaurants locally to keep you interested. You are dependent on the hotel staff to get in and out of the village proper because Wadano is a fair walk to town.
My only negatives: the rooms were very small and the drying rooms/ facilities were overwhelmed so it was hard to keep laundry keeping up with use

We were told Hakuba Luna had a make-over in 2016 and now includes en suite bathrooms in all rooms.  

The hotel is located in the Wadano forest area, about 100 metres from the Sakka ski lifts at Happo One mountain. The free shuttle to other mountains also picks up and drops off skiers during the day. Ski hire is close by, though a number of other ski hire places will pick you up and fit you out if you give them a call. Some ski rentals will also pick up their hire gear after you've finished your stay at Hakuba Luna. 

There's a reasonable menu selection at Hakuba Luna and are also a number of good restaurants within easy walking distance of Hakuba Luna - ask your hosts or check out Hakuba's website. One of the most popular is Humming Bird cafe down the road, but you will need to book a few days in advance, during the busy part of the season.
 
Hakuba Luna has amenities to suite most skiers; there's a drying room downstairs for skis and clothing and a games room there as well. There's also a large spacious dining room in the front of the hotel with some sofas to the sides.

Our host David and his wife Yumi helped make the experience special and nothing seemed to much trouble for them including pick-ups and drop-offs from the central bus station - just confirm your eta before your arrive. H.L.'s staff were always very helpful and courteous and if we go back to Hakuba I'd certainly be looking to book there again.
