Location

SETTING / ATMOSPHERE

Hirafu 188 Apartments are in located towards the top of Hirafu’s main street – Hirafu Zaka Street. Hirafu Zaka is about 1km long and runs from the traffic lights in the centre of town, up to one of the main ski lifts – the Ace Quad.

LIFTS / TRANSPORT

Step out the front door of Hirafu 188 Apartments and it’s about 200m or so up the hill to the Ace Quad lift. If you’ve got a reasonable level of fitness this should be no problem, but management provides a shuttle service that can give you that boost up the hill.

RESTAURANTS / BARS

There’s a cafe in-house and within a short walk, plenty of wining and dining options. Straight across the road is Bang Bang and Bang 2, in the side street below is Izakaya Raku, and just down the hill is the legendary A-Bu-Cha 2, just to name a few. Bars Wild Bill’s and Blo Blo are nearby.

    Fantastic place to stay as well as the location. The apartment was very clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful. My only feedback would to be offer an earlier transfer to the bus station as some of the other places.

    Great location! There is even a supermarket and chemist on the ground floor making it easy to stock up on groceries.

    Family ski holiday in what we are advised is the powder snow ski resort world capital. We have not been disappointed thus far. Great weather, many options in terms of ski runs and great selection of restaurants.

    Love the fact that this apartment has and en-suite bathroom for each bedroom (pretty rare in Niseko)! The apartment is very spacious and is conveniently located. Onsen after day out skiing / boarding is just across the street. Massage is available in the Basement if needed. The only improvement I would like to see is the service level of SkiJapan who manage the property. I called to arrange transport for my dinner. Would have been nice if they just booked the transport for me instead of initially giving me the contact details of the taxi company. Having said that, they did book it for me after I asked….but I think the experience would be more special if they exceeded my expectations rather than simply satisfy my requests.
