Happo Village Accommodation

Pros: accom is either near the slopes or close to the Happo bus terminal; lots of dining options.
Cons: only a small amount of ski-in ski-out accommodation; nearby slopes not ideal for novices.

The Happo village area is vast. Some Hakuba accommodation is clustered within a short walk of the Happo One Adam gondola (Shirakaba base) where there are various restaurants and bars. There’s only one little green run near the gondola, so this area isn’t ideal if you have novices in your group. A little further south in Happo is the Nakiyama base, which isn’t particularly ideal for novices either but a huge plus for this area is the large concentration of restaurants and bars, and some shops. The Happo Village spreads across to the east and any accommodation near the Happo bus terminal has the huge advantage of direct bus access to any of the Hakuba ski resorts (including Cortina).
