Mix powder-filled days with peaceful evenings at the Northern Resort, a modern pick in the laid-back Annupuri part of Niseko. You’ll be staying slopeside, so you can be finding fresh tracks in no time. And there’s a bus stop on your doorstep too, with regular services to Grand Hirafu if you fancy checking out somewhere with a livelier après scene during your stay.
When it comes to facilities, it’s all about slowing things down after your day on the mountain, whether that’s sipping a drink in the Forest Lounge bar or recharging with a massage in the spa. And for the ultimate in post-pow relaxation, don’t miss taking a dip in the outdoor onsen – that’s a kind of traditional Japanese thermal bath.
You’ll be staying bed and breakfast here and your first meal of the day is served buffet-style in the Eclat restaurant. Grab a plate and fill up from a spread that covers familiar favourites, from cereal and pastries to eggs and bacon. As for evening meals, you can pop back here and take your pick from a menu of international dishes. Or for food with a local flavour, try the hotel’s other à la carte restaurant, An-Non.

Since hitting the big time in the nineties, Niseko’s quickly found a spot among the titans: it has some of the best backcountry on the planet, and is one of the world’s snowiest resorts. The powder hasn’t gone to its head though, and half the charm here's the chilled, culture-rich Japanese character it’s long been loved for.
