Dated
Very old dated with limited amenities in the room. Old furnishings. Noisy. Comfortable bed and well heated. Very pricey for what you get.

Olivia and her team were very warm, welcoming and helpful. Shakespeare Hotel is very charming, has everything you need and it is located conveniently close to Base Camp where you catch the shuttle to the mountains.

Well located in Echoland
I stayed for 3 days whilst my friends apartment had guests. The hotel staff were lovely, the room was small but clean and did what it needed. Location is very good. Would recommend.
The Shakespeare is ideally situated for hitting the slopes and enjoying the local restaurants. Access to the buses at Hakuba base camp is a 1 minute walk across the street. There are a number of good restaurants nearby, but you should reserve early to get a seat. The Shakespeare can help, and they offer good recommendations on the area.
We stayed in the annex building. The carpet in our room was stained and covered with a rug in one spot. There are a lot of early 20s tourists who come to party and hit the slopes, so I suspect the rooms get a lot of damage from this (drinking and snow gear). The beds were clean and comfortable and the heating was good.
The included breakfast was good, it's provided by a couple who own a restaurant in the compound. They were really nice. They work pretty hard when there are a lot of guests eating, so it's best to come early or wait till the rush is over.
The Shakespeare a good choice if you want easy access to Hakuba's main attractions.

Awesome location, situated very close to the Hakuba Base Camp stop and in the middle of most restaurants. Bed was slightly uncomfortable, I think mainly because the mattress hung over the bed frame...
Didn't eat breakfast at the hotel, can't comment there.
Staff was super friendly, super helpful.
Rooms were clean and big enough.
Enjoyed the stay and would return!
