"I stayed here for a trip to Niseko, which is about a 30-minute drive away. The hotel has some wonderful highlights, but also a few downsides to consider.
The Highlights:
• Stunning Views: The breakfast was a highlight! The restaurant overlooks a snowy landscape that looks like something straight out of a fairytale. The breakfast selection was also quite good.
• Great Amenities: They offer lovely extras like complimentary soda, tea, and ice pops. There’s also a microwave available, which was very convenient for heating up quick meals after a tiring day of skiing.
• Atmosphere: I really enjoyed the live music performances held in the lobby every evening—it added a very nice touch to the stay.
• Parking: Free parking is available right across from the lobby, though you'll need to find your own spot.
The Downsides:
• Onsen & Cleanliness: While they have an onsen, the washing area was not very clean, and the space felt a bit cramped. It also tended to get quite loud inside.
• Room Condition: I stayed in a Japanese-style room, which was very spacious, but unfortunately, it felt a bit dated and not as clean as I would have liked.
Overall, the scenery and free perks are fantastic, but the cleanliness in the common areas and rooms could definitely be improved."
"This is such a well run hotel and every staff member from the cleaning crew, to the front desk, to the restaurant, to the ski valets are just wonderful. Our stay was so relaxing and easy. The rooms have everything you need. The beds are so comfortable, the rooms are spotless, and the kitchens well appointed. There are very few hotels I’ve ever been keen to return to in my travels, but this is definitely one we’ll return to when we visit Hokkaido again. Thank you! "
"It’s tucked deep in the mountains, with the nearest convenience store about a 12-minute drive away, so having a car is highly recommended. That said, the resort itself offers a wide range of amenities -including breakfast, onsen, and massage services - covering most of your needs during the stay. The highlight of this experience was being able to enjoy snowy scenery even in the third week of March. "
"Hotel staff were accommodating, friendly, and knowledgeable. Easy vannservis in call for mountain any time from 8:30am-11am and 3-5pm daily - just a WhatsApp text and 10 minute drive away "
"We stayed as a family of four for 5 nights.
PROS:
- location was great, within walking distance to Anapuri
- the breakfast was great and changed daily which was nice
- the shared bathroom was clean
- it did feel family friendly and we liked meeting other folks in the common area
CONS:
- our room was ok - the heater and fridge didn’t work and it was clean-ish
- you have to walk through the dining area to access the communal showers which felt odd
- the staff also utilized the common areas so sometimes it was hard to know who was actually working and it felt like we were an inconvenience at times when we were asking for things like coffee in the morning
- in general, we felt the service was lacking for what we paid
