Visitor Reviews of Niseko Hirafu


John Ambrose from Australia writes:

On my way home after two fabulous weeks in Niseko and I am already planning next year's trip. Excellent snow everyday with no queues for lifts (Chinese New Year had some traffic at the base lifts only) and wonderful people both locals and visitors.
Mountain facilities were clean, prices - well it is a ski resort town but good value for money. Mountain staff have excellent manners and you always get service with a smile and a thank you for using the chair lift.
The off-piste is wonderful and lasts a couple of days without snow and the groomed is great and the "out the gate" areas are an experience. A 10 out of 10 ski and snowboard destination.
