The Setsumon
Location

Setting / Atmosphere

The Setsumon apartments sit right in the heart of Hirafu ski village. The apartments offer picturesque alpine vistas, yet they are right by Hirafu’s main street with restaurants and shops galore.

Lifts / Transport

The apartments are only a minute’s walk to the lifts and next door to a premium ski hire shop. The Welcome Center transport hub is a 5 minute walk uphill. This is also the place to catch free village shuttles and inter-village shuttles.

Restaurants / Bars

While the apartments do offer full cooking facilities, you might be tempted to dine out every night during your stay! The Setsumon sits right along the main street (Hirafu-Zaka) with iconic izakayas like BangBang and A Bu Cha within a five-minute radius – in fact, the latter is literally across the street!

    This is was our fourth stay in Niseko and we finally found accomodation I would return to. Great location, modern with good furnishings. The private hot tub is what made the property!

    Comfortable living with a modern design but not super contemporary. Great value apartments for Niseko. And the studios are actually pretty large in size.

    Nice place. Friendly staff and a good location. Room was well furnished and comfortable. Access to our room was odd (up and elevator, then through a series of doors, and then down flight of stairs) and we would have liked more amenities for the price but otherwise a good experience.

    Our family booked the 1 Bedroom Alpine Deluxe Apartment for 4 days in a recent ski trip. The serviced apartment is beautiful, clean, comfortable, comes with full kitchen, spacious living/dining room and within 3 mins walking distance to the Family ski lift. This room can accommodate 5 adults comfortably and they provided tatami besides the Queen bed in the master room.

    Restaurants and shops are all around. They provide assistance for airport transfers, bookings for ski lessons, ski gears rental (that is just next door), restaurants booking and free transfer from Hirafu Welcome Centre (that is just a short walk up the slope but just not conducive to drag our luggage in the snow). It is a little pricey compared to others around them but the overall experience is worth it. After all, it is our first time in Hokkaido and we wanted a memorable visit.

    We got a studio for me, my wife and our little baby son with only 9 months (yup, was kind of crazy to go there with him lol) and it was a very nice stay of four nights.

    The studio was big enough for us, quite warm and had new/well maintained furnitures and appliances. Also every apartment has a closet in front of elevator to store wet/ice boots and jackets.

    It has a great location (not ski in ski out): 2min walk down to a convenience store, 3min up to a bigger grocery store (where you can find “fancy goods” like wine and cheese) and 4-5min to the nearest lift. A lot of restaurants nearby.

    They also offered a private shuttle (after I asked) from Chitose airport but we went by bus-shuttle because it was 5x cheaper. And we got late checkout (a couple of hours) for free.

    Con: internet connection was very slow for watch streaming like Netflix.

    The room was great and had amazing views over Hirafu. The hot tub in the penthouse made it well worth it. It felt very private, but yet still had great service. With only a 2 minute walk to the lifts, we will definitely be staying here next year!
