Hakuba Shakespeare Hotel – Comfort, Dining & Style in the Heart of Echoland Perfectly located in the centre of Echoland—Hakuba’s most vibrant dining and nightlife district—the Hakuba Shakespeare Hotel combines classic European-inspired design with thoughtful Japanese hospitality. Under its new ownership and management, the property has undergone stylish renovations and continues to evolve as a hub for skiers, families, couples, and groups seeking convenience, comfort, and culinary flair.

The Main Wing features recently updated guest rooms designed with a warm alpine aesthetic—natural wood accents, plush bedding, and clean, modern bathrooms. Room options include comfortable twins, doubles, a large family suite, and fold-out beds available on request for extra guests. Free high-speed Wi-Fi is available throughout the hotel.

For guests seeking extra space or a more relaxed vibe, the Shakespeare Annex offers practical, well-heated rooms perfect for families or small groups—just steps from the main building.

What truly sets the Hakuba Shakespeare Hotel apart is its vibrant in-house dining scene. Guests can enjoy:

Bistro Shakespeare – a cosy, wood-fired European dining experience

Tomatito Izakaya – a lively local favourite offering creative Japanese small plates

Shakespeare Natural Market – stocking organic groceries, snacks, and unique local goods

Western-style breakfast – served daily to start your day right

After a day on the slopes, relax at the Shakespeare Wellness Studio for massage therapy, or join a gentle evening stretch at the on-site yoga space. With shuttle stops to all major ski resorts—including Happo-One, Iwatake, Goryu, and Tsugaike—right at the doorstep, getting to the mountain is effortless.

Whether you’re planning an action-packed ski week, a food-focused getaway, or a relaxed winter escape with friends and family, the Hakuba Shakespeare Hotel offers more than just accommodation—it’s a complete alpine holiday base in the heart of it all.
