Best Kutchan Hotels

"Facilities: This hotel is truly the best value in Niseko. When we booked the Park Hyatt next door, they didn't have triple rooms, so we opted for JAL. While the price wasn't cheap, the experience was excellent. 308 is a three-minute walk away, and we went to see the mountain lights on our first night, catching the fireworks on the last day of Golden Week. It was a wonderful experience. Service: Breakfast is included daily. Just having the homemade seafood bowl for breakfast is enough to fill a room. A bowl of seafood rice with roe in Sapporo would cost 4,000 NTD, but here you can eat whatever you want. Since it's difficult to book at the Park Hyatt, we also ate dinner and lunch in the restaurant. We had Ezo deer steak, which was delicious, all lean meat, and there's also a soup curry option. Environment: Behind the hotel is a forest with tree walking and tree trekking options. You can schedule activities and go. The hotel's The Shop also sells fireworks, so it's very affordable to take the kids to set off fireworks at night. Fireworks are practically impossible to set off in Beijing."

"The place was very good overall. Service was great, free shuttle to Niseko everyday, nice onsen, good facilities outside the room. There's a convenience shop next door and also a large supermarket. The only issue was that the curtain in the cabin has an open space above it so it's quite bright when you want to sleep. Also I had bad luck to have a noisy neighbor for a couple of days."

"Park Hyatt Niseko is undoubtedly one of the most prestigious hotels in this premier winter ski destination. It's actually a sprawling resort complex, featuring both hotel rooms and residences, primarily designed for winter skiing. What's more, it offers direct ski-in/ski-out access to the ski lifts from the hotel's back door. During the summer months, most shops are closed, and about half of its affiliated restaurants operate on limited hours or are shut down. Guest numbers are significantly lower, and prices are considerably cheaper. It seems they primarily operate during this season just to maintain normal hotel functions. The hotel boasts several upscale restaurants, including a French restaurant overseen by a three-Michelin-starred chef, a top-tier Cantonese restaurant, Teppanyaki, Robatayaki, and a sushi establishment. Outside of the winter season, only the lobby bar operates normally; the opening hours for other venues require prior confirmation. The hotel's overall design exudes an air of extreme luxury and grandeur. The rooms are equally opulent and high-end, with simple yet practical lighting. It's impeccably clean and comfortable, and all toiletries are top-of-the-line. The Wi-Fi speed can be inconsistent at times, and I expect it to be even slower during the busy winter season."

"Everything was good, except the breakfast choices were not as much to chose from, It did not worth the long queue for our family in the early morning. Other than that, everything was great, service was excellent. I left my luggage at the lobby while I checked out, they managed to send me the luggage back to Sapporo the next day. It was greatly appreciated."

"Good service, free pick-up, help book the bus to the airport, and help the bus ticket service is all free, there is Chinese service staff, the location is very close to the snow field."

"Great experience at AYA. Smooth check in and the place is clean"

"The location is great. If the weather is nice, the view of Mt. Yotei is great, and the facilities are new and comfortable. It is recommended for summer as it is relatively cheap to stay."

"Everything is good except the price! I love the environment of the villa! The kitchen, dining room and living room are upstairs, and the bedroom is downstairs. It is a 6-minute drive from Hirafu. The hotel has a shuttle bus to the ski resort, which is available on call and special car pick-up."

"Clean and accessible via shuttle bus (though infrequently) or via GO car. Staff were helpful and polite. There is a diner downstairs (Midtown Diner) which is convenient if it is snowing hard and you need to eat in for lunch/dinner. There are rooms to store ski equipment, and coin washing machines for easy laundry. There were also some nice Christmas decorations at the lobby."

"This hotel is perfectly located on the most happening street, making it super convenient for exploring. Newly renovated, everything feels fresh and incredibly clean. The room was fully equipped, you can get whatever you need. A special shoutout to the receptionist from Taiwan, she was so helpful and friendly—my kids still talk about how much they miss them! Highly recommend staying here!"
