The Maples Niseko
Location
SETTING / ATMOSPHERE
The Maples Niseko is located in the beating heart of Niseko: Upper Hirafu village, halfway up the main street, Hirafu-Zaka. All around on the village side are shops, a supermarket, ski hire, restaurants and bars, so any convenience will almost literally be on your doorstep. Meanwhile the hustle and bustle of the main street transforms to the busy Ace Family Run with a peaceful forest backdrop on the other side. Literally the best of all worlds!
LIFTS / TRANSPORT
The Maples Niseko is ski-in and ski-out, with the building connecting directly to Hirafu’s Family Run. You can either ski down to the base of the Family Run and take the high-speed Ace Family Quad to get further up the mountain, or if you’d like to warm up your legs you can walk out onto the main street and five minutes uphill to main quad lift. The Maples is also very close to shuttle stops and the Welcome Centre making it easy to get further afield. Boom!
RESTAURANTS / BARS
The Maples Niseko is primely located right near two of Niseko’s most famous izakayas, A-Bu-Cha and Bang Bang, although you may need to book well ahead or be prepared to line up early to get a seat. There are dozens more restaurants and bars within less than five minutes walk, and it’s even not too far to stroll down to the main intersection and into Middle Hirafu where you can experience a whole lot more. Best of all, don’t worry about needing a taxi if you stay out late!

Emma Hopkins –
Nila at Powderlife was extremely helpful when booking our trip, from suggesting we stay at The Maples (which was wonderful), arranging airport transfers and ski equipment hire, and helping purchase lift passes. The trip went really smoothly due to these arrangements, and the group really enjoyed their trip. Thank you!
Alastair –
The staff at the front desk were lovely and very helpful. They offered to help with luggage and I thought were really looking out for the guest and would say the best reception we had in Niseko upon check-in. The lady that checked us in (forgot her name) was very professional when it came to running through the T&C’s and general introduction to the property. We stayed in the 3 bedroom apartment overlooking the ski run. The views of the ski run are amazing and truely some of the best views from an apartment. I think this side was actually better than Mt Yotei. The colour tones are perfect and give the apartment a very sophisticated vibe. Highly recommend the apartment for those who want a great base while in Niseko. 10 out of 10!
Pia –
Beautiful modern apartments looking out to the ski hill. The ski lockers have direct ski in/ski out access to the Ace family run and there are restaurants and a small supermarket right across the street. Perfect!
Orraphilai Isarangkura –
It’s really a nice place, near the ski slope and the supermarket. Good staff very nice can help in many ways.
Sara –
One of the most popular new ski-in and ski-out properties in Niseko! This property is very cool with a range of apartments to choose from.
