3-Star Hotels in Kutchan

I stayed in the middle of the ski season in February 2023. Good points The exterior looks like a hot spring built during the bubble period compared to the surrounding hotels, and I thought it might be a loss at first glance. However, the interior was new and the inside of the room (although the rooms seem to be new and old) was modern and comfortable. The large communal bath is a hot spring and has an open-air bath. There were many people during the ski season, but the bathhouse was large so I was able to take a relaxing bath. The meal was a buffet, but it was relatively authentic, and the tempura and steak were delicious. It was more than expected. Bad places The correspondence of the staff (especially the receptionist) is subtle. Although it was full of many customers during the check-in time zone, the person in charge was only about 1-2 names. Moreover, there are many English / Chinese, but there are many staff in one word, and it took time to respond. Some people broke into the row and came in, but they weren't so concerned. Also, I only said that I needed guidance, and even if I asked where and when the bath was, I was only told ”it is written”. Anyway, if it is a cheap hotel overseas, I wanted to give a little more hospitality if it is a hotel of a certain rank in Japan. It's a ski / snowboard relationship, but lift tickets and rentals will be another building. It's not just this hotel, but it's a little far away, but I thought I would improve the convenience a little more. Also, this time was １ night ２ 5,000 yen with breakfast and dinner. I think it can't be helped, but I want it to be a place that Japanese people can enjoy.

This hotel delivers more than expected! Usually the websites over promise and under deliver however this was the other way around! As others have mentioned rooms are quite small but completely adequate, the only thing we could suggest would be to offer coffee & tea in the room (there is a kettle & fridge). Bathroom has toileteries which are decent quality. Room was warm and thus ski clothes were dried well. There is good storage for ski equipment and a lovely small gym with good quality kit (open 24/7) All staff were very friendly and knowledgable about the area giving good instructions and suggestions for places to eat. There is a shuttle service to the town but it is also a pleasant walk (without ski gear!) The small convenience store on site is ok but a little expensive (although this is independant of the hotel) Breakfast is plentiful, everything fresh and inviting to eat - there is an egg station where you can get eggs any which way. The diner us surprisingly good - a small menu but made to order and like breafast very fresh. The bar does happy hour and some lovely cocktails :) There is a ”common room” whereby you can cook for yourself - this would be good if travelling in a group. Overall a great mid priced (low for the area!) hotel

We booked a private room for 1 king as a last minute extension of our ski trip to be close to hanazono ski resort. The common living room area/lobby is extremely cosy with complimentary hot tea and coffee that can be enjoyed by the fireplace throughout the day. Super comforting after a cold day out. We also got to meet the owner Cliff who helped us get to and back from the resort, train and neighbouring Kutchan for dinner. The inn team are also extremely helpful in making reservations and travel arrangements, which made a big difference since the area is much less convenient than hirafu. Complimentary breakfast was a nice touch. They have standard toast and cereal laid out. as well as a hot dish of scrambled eggs, pancakes etc brought to you when youre ready to eat. There is a shared laundry machine, as well as some snow toys and boardgames. Overall had a lovely time here. I felt taken care of. Had a really good experience and human touch. Thanks.

Always is a pleassure to have my morning coffe here, thks guys Reijith and Anand 👏👏👏👏👏 you made my day very smooth and easy to go ahead amazing service and very professional. Dont change be the same thks again

This was my third stay at The Maples, and I couldn't have enjoyed it more. This time I came with just my boyfriend instead of with family, so handled most of the logistics myself. I really relied on help from the staff and The Maples, before, during and after my trip! Even a month before my trip, I got a lot of help with transportations, ski passes etc through emailing with the staff, who were always so prompt to reply and very friendly. During my stay, they also helped me a lot with dinner reservations etc. Every request or question I had was met with a friendly smile. Of course, I enjoyed the location again immensely. It was great to be able to walk to many of the stores and restaurants, and to also ski in and out. This time I also rented a car and parking at the Maples was always available and easy. The hotel was always bright and clean. My onlyyyy complaint if I had to mention was that my room did not have black out curtains... so I was woken up pretty early every morning by the natural sunlight!! But, this actually helped me to get up there on the slopes bright and early, so a perk after all!

I have never been this excited to review a hotel but this really is a Seven Star… Got Ample Parking Space! Warm & Cozy enviroment inside. Mount Yotei view the best. The staff is so helpful and nice. They will do anything and everything to make you feel home. Everything is in place and order very neat and clean. Location is perfect! Standard rooms are spacious too indeed. 24*7 coffe machine which is complimentary. Oh I have loved my Hot Cocoa Cup in a day many many times haha.. its yummm. They have all the best information and travel tips about Niseko on their reception desk. They have toys and games for the kids and family to keep yourself entertained. This is my second day and I am already loving this place very much.. ❤️

The most beautiful hotel in Niseko, suitable for family travel, great service, 5 minutes drive from the snow field, 15 minutes drive from JR, hotel pick-up, the main point is that the hotel has only six rooms, very quiet, the snow scene is very beautiful, you can pat Blockbuster, the hotel configuration is absolutely super five-star, the hair dryers are Dyson, the showers are bodyshop, the first two days of sliding in Ki niseco. Two days of snow, back pain, after switching to this hotel, stayed in the hotel for a day. Children make snowmen to play sleighs and take pictures. Children's happiest day, every time they pay special attention to the quality of the hotel. This is the first time to write a review, from the heart of the recognition, next time Hokkaido is the first choice

Very homey and cosy accommodation to share with family/friends. There's a ski room for storing the gear and a pantry with a microwave oven, a small oven, washing and drying machines. Conveniently located around Setsu Niseko, where a free shuttle bus stops by. Walking distance to Lawson, shops and restaurants. Probably can't find a better place to stay in Niseko at a similar rate. Would love to visit again!

We spent 2 nights here in December to ski for the day at Niseko. The hotel worked perfectly for our family of 4 adults. There was enough room to spread out and socialize as well. We were impressed with the complimentary breakfast served right across the road at the sister hotel. We appreciated the free shuttle run up to the gondolas. We felt the rates were reasonable given that it was high season. The only thing to be aware of, if you don't have a car, it's a long hike up the hill to the bars/restaurants - and trying to navigate the snow/ice with suitcases in tow was quite a comedy show. We would happily stay here again if we were lucky enough to come to Niseko.

It is very convenient to live here, shopping, eating, the room is the basic environment, passable, there is a heater, very good, it started to break, the staff repaired it, quiet and warm, I hope the store can change the toilet to a universal Japanese bathroom, not a smart toilet is very inconvenient, Others are fine.
