Spa Hotels in Niseko

We went during winter as it is the best season to visit Niseko but what makes our trip exceptionally memorable is this hotel that we can call our 'home' during our 5-night stay in December 2023. The room is exceptionally comfortable and clean but what stands out is the superb hospitality and service from the hotel's team. From the moment we checked in, the Front Office team was very welcoming (shout out to Kiel, Ryoka and the whole team) including the amiable and helpful hotel manager, Ms. Yolande (who took her time to welcome us and have a brief chat). Yolande even made sure to greet the guests every morning as we all walked to the restaurant for breakfast. It is the little things like this that make the difference. And thank you for all the tips and advice which was very very helpful.. During our stay, we were very comfortable and enjoyed the whole winter at Niseko's experience, especially returning to our cosy hotel and room after a long day exploring the small town. Thanks to the housekeeping team who always kept the room in the best condition (I think they make up the room a minimum of two times a day) - I didn't manage to get your names but your work is highly appreciated. On top of that, we always look forward to going for breakfast every morning as the menu prepared is of excellent quality - serving the best produce from Hokkaido like snow king crab. The team at the restaurant deserves much praise. Shoutout to the team (Goong, Korn, Ploy, Nut, Riko and Kristina). Thank you for your warm hospitality and the little conversations we had. I have lots of fond memories during my stay here and I look forward to coming back again real soon and seeing the familiar faces I've met on this trip.

I have been staying at the Green Leaf off and on for over 10 years. It is an excellent location for ski-in, ski-out, but unfortunately the hotel services have gone downhill. I had two rooms, and the Wi-Fi never worked in either room or the routers could not be fixed. Limited Wi-Fi was obtained by using a neighboring room. The room radiators which was convenient for drying gloves and ski clothes, I was informed, have been permanently turned off. Most disappointing of all is the morning breakfast. My family and I had always looked forward to it, but it has continued to get more frugal and sparce every year and is now comparatively poor from what it was 10 years ago. The hotel is trying to save money in the wrong way. It is obvious that the entire setup is now being outsourced. The supervisor in charge is very nice and personable, and doing his best with what is available, but the food quality is very average, and even the personnel are no longer Japanese. There used to be a nice coffee station as you exited the buffet room. It is gone. Real cream for your coffee, gone. Nuts, grains, and raisins for yogurt, gone. Assorted cheese section, gone. Assorted multigrain breads, gone, and the general food quality has become cheap. The Goshiki Restaurant, from 2nd hand sources, all expressed their disappointment with this evening restaurant in the same way as the breakfast. If food is not a concern, then the Green Leaf will be fine for you. If food is important for a nice ski-in, ski-out vacation, then you might consider a neighboring hotel instead.

Please choose one of the many other great places to spend your holiday in Niseko. The service culture at a leadership level here leaves a lot to be desired and this ultimately trickles down to the polite but ultimately ineffectual staff. Our main issue related to the terms of discount on rental equipment with our package, which was not clarified adequately to us over numerous emails exchanged with the ski centre and the hotel team. There were plenty of opportunities when this could have been made clear and we would have obviously booked with more reasonably priced and comparable quality rental providers. Ultimately, this absorbed a lot of time in correspondence before and during our stay and cost us over $400 more than competitors with better service experiences in Niseko, like Rhythm. Management was invisible at every step. We waited in the Lobby for over an hour on our last full day, but did not even get offered a phone conversation with a decision maker, let alone the courtesy of a face-to-face discussion. Furthermore, the hotel restaurant is closed. The magic carpet that is offered instead to take you to the nearest hotel is also closed. Housekeeping services the room every other day, not daily. None of these details were communicated when our package was sold to us and our dates (late ski season) were confirmed just a few months ago. Although the apartments are lovely and some staff have helped with restaurant bookings, we won’t return for future visits as we have tried to escalate and resolve this really expensive issue but have simply been left to foot the bill.

Mainly Hokkaido summer insects, not Ukiyo alone problem, but the environment is first-class, the scenery outside the summer window is very pleasant
