Mountain Shuttles

Spread the good word and spread it around.

From those same two ski bums who brought you Butter Inn, we bring you our latest instalment of buttery goodness: The Butter. More Butter? Well, why not!

We're so close to the slopes at Norikura that you can slide right on in and nestle in to the comfort of our spacious rooms, grab a cold beer at the bar, get some good grub down the gullet and simply sit around and while the world away.

With the little things that are loved by all at Butter Inn (the shuttles, the pick-up and drop-offs, the evening shuttles and the homely vibe) also on offer at The Butter, there really isn't much you need to worry about.

So 'welcome home' (again), and we'll catch you in this winter wonderland that always takes our breath away. Hakuba is calling, so spread the word: 'The Butter' is spreading the good times.

Ashlee HardingHappy Guest

I stayed at Butter Inn for 3 weeks in Feb. It's in the best location for ski in/out or Norikura. I stayed in both the bunk room and the private room which were super clean and comfortable. Amazing vibe, everyone there was so friendly. My favourite part of the lodge was the living room where you could sit in front of the fire and watch the snow fall. Can't wait to go back next year when they have the bar downstairs.

Great hidden gem in Hakuba valley, if you are looking for powder in Japan I would highly recommend staying here as it is ski in ski out of the best spots in Hakuba. Lodge has a great community feel with the open dining and lounge area to wind down after a day out in the snow.

Josie CorrFrothy Legend

Great location close to Norikura & Cortina resorts, with ski in ski out. The lodge is spacious and clean, with a kitchen, a nice living room area & a fireplace. Super helpful staff/owners had the best time staying here, would definitely stay again!

Sam GibsonHell Human

Cannot recommend this place highly enough. Great location with Ski in/out as well, Awesome people, Facilities are 10/10 - huge kitchen, rooms are spotless, massive dining and common room space with sofas and a projector. This place has everything you could want. Already looking forward to my next stay.

STOP. THINK TWICE

It's another day for you and me in paradise.

Only a short distance from the lifts where at the front-row to one of the snowiest resort in the Hakuba Valley. Norikura Ski Resort, in the Hakuba Valley, is blessed with a huge annual snowfall and some excellent terrain, making it one of the best destinations for powder days in the Nagano region. With a newly installed backcountry lift, amazing tree skiing, beginner/intermediate slopes and a ski-able connection to the famed Cortina Resort, there really is something for everyone.
