"A serene, elegant hideaway that sets the tone for luxury in Niseko. Located at the base of Niseko Village (a quick walk to the gondola), the 50-room property balances minimalist Japanese architecture with plush textures, with floor-to-ceiling windows that frame Mount Yotei and a meditative onsen carved from dark stone. Dinner at Sushi Nagi, the hotel’s omakase restaurant, is a must for seafood lovers." - Denny Lee Denny Lee Denny Lee is a seasoned editor, writer, and traveler.

"A high-end option with finely appointed rooms, its own onsen, and the refined omakase-style restaurant Sushi Nagi for an indulgent, serene stay." - Brent Rose
"Set at the base of the resort, this modern, 50-room property became my sanctuary: after stowing my gear in the high-tech locker room, I beelined to the serene, minimalist bathhouse clad in dark stone and sank into the steaming, mineral-rich onsen—no harsh chemicals, just piping-hot volcanic water. The combination soothed a banged-up body far better than any hot tub I’ve tried in the Rockies or Alps. Staying here made skiing turn-and-burn easy and slipping into calm even easier." - Denny Lee Denny Lee Denny Lee is a seasoned editor, writer, and traveler.

"A hush of powder defines this ski-in, ski-out hideaway of just 50 rooms, where warmly modern alpine aesthetics—circular stone hearth, butter-soft leather, textured stone, and iridescent ceramics—frame Mount Yotei at every turn. Omotenashi peaks with a round-the-clock do-san butler, while bedrooms echo nature in dark wood lattices, forestlike carpets, cherry blossom panels, moss-green velvet, and slate soaking tubs set for mountain-view soaks (request a Yotei room). Dining is seasonal and Hokkaido-forward—Yukibana spans Wagyu burgers to soup curry; Sushi Nagi’s counter flows with uni, scallops, and tuna—before spa time at four-room Chasi La Sothys or a private onsen. And when the snow melts, summer opens onto green forests and flower fields." - Danielle Demetriou, Adam H. Graham
"Nestled in Niseko, Japan, this luxurious base offers front-row seats to breathtaking mountain views and nearly 10 metres of powder snow each winter. The Spa Chasi La Sothys provides restorative treatments." - Faye Bradley
