I had an absolute blast at the hotel Hokkaido! Everyone there was so friendly and welcoming, the work was enjoyable with plenty of days off, and I got to end each and every day with a soak in the outdoor the hotel - couldn't have asked for a better first volunteering experience! The hostel is pretty remote, but I'd honestly say it's part of the charm and was a great way to slow down and recharge in a beautiful part of Japan. Plus getting to see the trees around Daisetsuzan slowly turn orange was amazing too! I'll definitely be back to visit and hike again and would highly recommend!

The working hours are consistent and very managable, the views are absolutely stunning, I met the nicest people during my stay that made me feel like I was with a family instead of at a workplace, and although it is a bit isolated from the closest city, if you rent a car you can do roadtrips all over Hokkaido on weekends off. Hiking around the Hostel is also beautiful and the hotel after a long day is one of the best things that have happened to me while in Hokkaido.

The hotel Hokkaido is the perfect place for a quiet get away from the usually very busy Japan life. I really enjoyed my time there and going to the hotel in the nights snow was always a perfect way to end your day. If you are looking to have some time for yourself and get back in touch with nature while also enjoying the nice company of the super friendly staff and other guests, I'd definitely recommend giving the hotel Hokkaido a shot! Thanks for everything! :)

The hotel Hokkaido Asahidake provides a good alternative to the big cities in Japan. I enjoyed the snow and the sight of snow-covered Asahidake. The hosts were kind and helpful. The amount of work was manageable but sometimes there was confusion about the tasks. It makes sense to visit the Asahidake Visitor Center. You can learn about wildlife near Asahidake and also rent snow boots or skiers. I rented some skiers to do some cross-ski. I also recommend the hotel😀. Ultimately, it was an interesting but also an unusual experience for me.

I spent the loveliest 3 weeks in the cosy space of K House Hokkaido during the fall season! The full time staff were welcoming, friendly, clear with their instructions and hours were well respected. With only 4h of work a day and 2 days off a week, I had plenty of time to explore the surrounding nature and Mt Asahidake. If you love being in nature and enjoy a lot of quiet, solo time, this would be the perfect place for you. As I was the only volunteer there during that time, I got my own room that came with a toilet. I also got to use the hotel every day, a rly therapeutic experience!
