Niseko 4 Star Hotels

Very nice hotel with several activities available. Several walking trails, a golf course and for the winter a ski lift starts from the hotel premises. Golf course rent equipment and even shoes so even the unexpected golfer can play. Nice onsen and spa available. Very nice, friendly and helpful staff. Only small draw back is that the village is around 10 km away so own transport is helpful.

Booked this property with another family, (4 adults, 4 kids 9-11) mainly on the basis of price and room configuration. Pricing through Expedia was great based on the timing of the stay. Configuration (there are others) was great with the tatami rooms for the kids and main bed for the adults. Good size living room, kitchenette that allowed us to eat in, separate bathroom, toilet, laundry. All equipment was new. Staff were great and couldn't do enough to be helpful, restaurant was nice with breakfast included, broad selection of styles for dinner. Ski locker facilities great and kids and wife (and me eventually) loved the onsen. Only criticism was the shuttle bus service to the ski fields and that a minor one. One Niseko is about 10 minutes from the Annupuri gondola and about 25 from Hirafu by the complimentary shuttle. The earliest one to Hirafu gets there at 9.25 am so if you must get "first tracks" you will need to make other arrangements. Wasn't a problem for us with the kids though once we got handle on the timing. Moiwa skifield is closer but a lot smaller. We didn't ski there but I'm told it's good if the snow is deep. Grocery shopping is in Hirafu but you can get the supplies delivered so it wasn't a problem. There are some basic food supplies in the hotel "store" as well. You can get ski hire at the hotel although we chose another supplier. You can book transfers from Chitose airport through the hotel website. Overall a great holiday for our requirements.

Entering the hotel with merry go rounds, kids playzone and a mini disneyland type decor was a bit different but we were led up to the hotel reception area and all became normal again. Helpful check in staff with adequate english, good ski storage facilities close to the exit area and a variety of bars and restaurants all within the one building made our stay a pleasure. There was plenty to explore over our 3 days all within the one complex The skiing was fabulous across the 3 different peaks. If you love tree skiing then this is for you but the groomed intermediate runs were perfect for my standard too. Advice that North South wing was most convenient to ski lifts was spot on. The tower looks like it would be more convenient but definitely involves more walking and does not have anywhere near the atmosphere of the North and South wing hotel sectors. Beginners and kids areas are closest to the North and south wing as well. If you are looking for a resort in Japan which caters well for kids on and off the snow then this is it.

The hotel staffs are friendly and helpful. I like the interior of the rooms, comfy bed and pillows. Awesome shiseido products provided in the toilets and onsens. It's really nice to have a nice hot bath at the onsen after a day of skiing or boarding. If you are lucky you might be able to get some snow flurries while you are at the onsen too. I must say a big thank you to the staffs at Niseko Hilton for helping us contact the bus driver when my friend left her goggles on the bus. The driver immediately walked over during his break time and returned it to us. Thank you so much for your help! Thank you Green Leaf for the great hospitality! I would definitely recommend this place to my fellow skiing and snowboarding friends ;) Overall its a good place to stay if you want to be away from the hustle and bustle... allows bonding session with a group of friends ;)

We really enjoyed our stay at Powder Tracks 5B. The staff at HT Holidays was wonderful and very helpful. They gave us restaurant recommendations, helped us with our giant bags and even gave us a lift to the train station at the end of our stay. The condo had free laundry which was awesome! They also had Sky/satellite TV so we could watch some english-language news (which is nice during a long trip overseas). Big bathroom, serviceable mini-kitchen, comfortable beds. Would definitely stay there again! We went during the fall but it looks like it's right in the middle of the action for ski season!

this condo/hotel has a lot of room and is in a good location. It has everything you will need for a night or two or as long as a week or two! good wifi, full kitchen, washer/dryer, good wifi and a short walk to almost everything- just be sure to NOT go into Hirafu via Hirafu train station-it is an empty building in the middle of no where- use Kutchan station and hotel will pick you up free.
