The Stuff was very friendly, they even picked me up at the station and also offered a ride back to another station. The room was so comfortable, I wished, I stayed longer. The food was also amazing! I was nervous about staying in a Ryokan alone, but since there are a few rooms for only one person, I didn’t feel alone or wrong. I would also especially recommend this place, if you want to travel alone.

I can’t think of anything, that I didn’t like. For not Japanese people it’s maybe good to keep on mind, that the breakfast is a Japanese Breakfast only. But even if I prefer western breakfast, I loved this breakfast!

The food was amazing, the design and feel were really nice.

Overall had a very charming stay, it is a family run ryokan and the hosts will go out of their way to accommodate your concerns and make it an enjoyable experience for you. They prepare an elaborate Japanese style dinner and breakfast and have a recreation area and private onsen. The ryokan itself is a mix of traditional Japanese design with contemporary architecture, and has massive windows in the common areas so you can enjoy Hakuba's stunning view. The room was very clean and opened up into a balcony overlooking the snowy mountains. Shuhei was kind enough to not only pick us up from the train station but dropped us to the Ski slopes after we checked out and also provided seasonal vouchers for lunch. The hosts really went above and beyond and I recommend it for anyone looking to experience Hakuba's landscape, Japanese cuisine and hospitality of this warm family.

Very small issue, completely overshadowed by the lovely overall experience, the blanket was slightly small for me and my partner.

Ryokan Mokuzin is a great place to stay in Hakuba woth super friendly and helpful management. Breakfast is good, very Japanese style. Dinner is quite varied, also Japanese style, it tastes great and is quite big actually.

Keep going. You are doing great! 🙂

Please come prepared because you will be showered with the utmost warmth & care by this kind family made up of Shuhei, his beautiful & talented wife Tomoko, as well as Shuhei’s lovely parents. The ryokan is extremely stylish and comes with large windows everywhere; with expansive and most magical winter views of Hakuba. The room is super comfortable, and breakfast/dinner was cooked with love daily. There is a heart-wrenching story behind the loss of their home during 2014’s earthquake and my utmost respect to the grit and resilience shown by Shuhei and family to rebuild Ryokan Mokuzin from scratch. Stay here to experience the architecture, landscape, culinary and hospitality of this extraordinary family. Highly recommend. You won’t regret.
