Sansui Niseko

A Sushi Miyakawa counter; only two units have a private onsen.

Sansui Niseko is a ski-in, ski-out hotel in Upper Hirafu, at the centre of the Niseko area in Hokkaido. Its rooms are apartment-style, from studios to one-, two- and three-bedroom suites and full-floor three- and four-bedroom penthouses, with kitchens (a kitchenette in the studios) and laundry facilities; the penthouses have their own private hot spring bath. The hotel also has a large public onsen bath and private onsen, a spa, a gym, a ski rental shop and a children's playroom. Dining is at Sushi Shin by Miyakawa, a branch of Sapporo's three-MICHELIN-star Sushi Miyakawa, and at the all-day SANSUI DINING, which uses seafood and produce from across Hokkaido. Suites take up to seven guests, and children aged 0-5 stay free when sharing a room with parents, within each room type's infant limit.
