4*+ Ki Niseko

Niseko, Japan

Ki Niseko
Located in Upper Hirafu Village next to the Hirafu Gondola, Ki Niseko boasts a true ski-in ski-out experience

Voted Japan's Best Ski Boutique Hotel in 2025 by the World Ski Awards for the eighth year running, Ki Niseko offers a modern and sophisticated stay in a prime location of the first lifts and gondola. The contemporary Japanese design is by renowned Hokkaido architect Koichi Ishiguro.

The handy in-house ski valet ensures an easy transition to the slopes from the second-floor entrance onto the snow. 

All rooms include complimentary WiFi, smart TV, luxury bathroom amenities, and a jinbei (Japanese robe). The standard hotel rooms include a daily buffet breakfast at the main restaurant, which must be added as a supplement for condos.

Guests can enjoy the indoor and outdoor onsen, and there is a private bath available on reservation, a lovely option for families or couples who want to experience a Japanese onsen together.

Fabulous location - truly ski in and ski out. Very modern rooms with good facilities. Loved the Onson which was great at the end of a hard day skiing. Bar was great and restaurant was good. The service from the boot room in getting out and putting away our skis and boots was the best I’ve ever seen.

Good sized room, but short on storage space (apparently this is common in Japan) so had some clothes in window ledges and left the rest in the suitcase. Great location, short walk to first lifts and gondola, ski in to the ski locker room. The ski valet service is excellent, sorting the boots and skis for us.

A lovely hotel, it had two private onsens that were easy to book which was very nice and also an excellent restaurant.

The Ki Hotel in Niseko was the best ski hotel we have ever stayed in by far. The staff were incredible, the private onsen was a dream and the “ski valet” service was something I am going to miss a lot! The location of the hotel was perfect, and we LOVED Niseko Hirafu.
