Niseko Ski Lodge

Started by a ski instructor and mountain guide who got a taste of Japanese powder snow and decided not to leave.  That is the short story behind the Ski Lodge.

​

After a few years in Hirafu, we have expanded to Niseko Village with a new lodge!

​

The lodges are relaxing and homey with a focus on mountain activities, great food, and local events.  The owner Rhys has lived in the area and worked as a mountain guide here for 10 years. 

Although many people visit for the snow or the adventure activities, many more are hearing about the amazing food and local festivals.  The goal at Niseko Ski Lodge is to share the best of Niseko during all seasons. 

​

After years of traveling to different ski destinations, we know it's better when you are surrounded by a team who know the local area, where the best snow is and what restaurants are worth a visit. 

​

This is the type of lodge we wanted to create.  We hope you are as excited as we are!
