Welcome to Pals Inn Raicho

Pals Inn Raicho took over from the previous owner of Villa Raicho in December 2014 and started anew as "Pals Inn Raicho, a place where friends gather."

Pals Inn Raicho is an accommodation located a 7-minute walk from JR Kamishiro Station, and in winter it serves as a shuttle bus stop for Hakuba Goryu Ski Resort, making it very convenient!

The garden features an athletic playground and treehouse handcrafted by the owner, as well as a dynamic Goemon-style bath heated with firewood, making it a facility that can be enjoyed by both children and adults.

We look forward to your visit!


Hakuba Goryu Tourism Association Declares Departure from Amenities

Request for cooperation in bringing your own amenities

In accordance with the "Act on Promotion of Plastic Resource Recycling," member accommodations of the Hakuba Goryu Tourism Association have discontinued providing amenities (e.g., toothbrushes, razors) in guest rooms as part of their efforts to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

To reduce plastic waste, we ask our guests to bring their own toothbrushes, razors, etc., and work together with them to promote a plastic-free lifestyle. Disposable toothbrushes are available for purchase at our facility for 50 yen each. We appreciate your cooperation.

  • Hakuba Village welcomes 2 million tourists annually. This means 2 million toothbrushes and other toiletries are discarded as waste. Simply bringing your own toothbrush and toiletries will reduce waste by 2 million.
  • By reducing linen changes, we aim to reduce the amount of water needed for each room cleaning (approximately 7 liters) and the amount of water needed for linen washing (approximately 14 liters, resulting in 0.07 kg of CO2 emissions).


Also, linen changes are not provided for stays of two nights or more. Guests staying three nights or more who require towel changes should inform the front desk. Please separate your trash and dispose of it in the provided trash cans.

  • By reducing linen changes, we aim to reduce the amount of water needed for each room cleaning (approximately 7 liters) and the amount of water needed for linen washing (approximately 14 liters, resulting in 0.07 kg of CO2 emissions).
