Yumoto Niseko Prince Hotel Hirafutei
forumWhat families say
Rakuten Travel rating 3.93 out of 5 (861 reviews). This onsen hotel stands at the foot of the Niseko Grand Hirafu ski area and draws on its own spring source, Yumoto. In winter the ski area is close by, making it a convenient base for a child's first time on the slopes and for playing in the snow. Guests praise the communal bath and open-air bath, filled with natural onsen flowing directly from the source, and enjoy the meals featuring Hokkaido flavors. Note that there are periods in summer when closure days are scheduled.
