Rusutsu has always been one of Hokkaido’s best-kept secrets. A short 30-minute drive from Niseko’s slopes, Rusutsu is known for its expansive terrain, lack of crowds and a huge host of facilities. Now the team behind the iconic The Vale Niseko is bringing a new kind of accommodation to Rusutsu, with a state-of-the-art condominium development right at the base of Rusutsu’s slopes.

Apartments across 10 floors will offer one, two and three bedroom configurations, as well as dual apartments linking together two one-bedroom units to create a roomier, more feature-packed 2-bedroom options. The brand new building will feature a grand lobby space, restaurant, and bar, as well as comprehensive ski storage facilities to create seamless access to the snow outside. A 24-hour front desk and comprehensive concierge services will ensure all guests have looked after.

Best of all, it’s not just The Vale being built, but a comprehensive refurbishment of the shopping and dining district on Rusutsu resort premises – bringing high street shopping and dining options right to your doorstep. With golf courses, a theme park and summer activities galore, Rusutsu is already a developed year-round destination. Compared to Niseko, Rusutsu is not only less crowded in winter, at a 90-minute drive from New Chitose Airport, it’s also much easier to get in and out of. Race you there!

The Vale Rusutsu
Location

SETTING / ATMOSPHERE

The Vale Rusutsu is located near the Rusutsu Resort Hotel, with all of the hotel’s features within easy reach. A refurbished dining and shopping area will connect The Vale to the Rusutsu Resort Hotel, with plenty of fun to be had off the slopes as well as on. In Rusutsu, you’re a convenient 90-minute bus ride from the airport, a much closer journey than the trip to Niseko. There is a small village a short drive from the Rusutsu resort area, that offers convenience stores and a few dining options with a more local flavour.

LIFTS / TRANSPORT

The Vale Rusutsu will be a very short stroll away from the West Mountain No. 1 Quad Lift, and the base of Rusutsu’s West Mountain lift system. You can ski right back into the building and right out of it. Regular bus services connect the Westin Rusutsu and Rusutsu Resort Hotel. If you want to try out different resorts, a local bus service connects Rusutsu with Niseko, as do several private charter companies.

RESTAURANTS / BARS

There are a host of dining options both in the Westin Rusutsu and the Rsuutsu Resort Hotel, and a refurbished shopping and dining area is set to connect The Vale Rusutsu to the rest of the Rusutsu Resort Hotel area’s facilities. If you tire of these options, a short drive into Rusutsu Village gives you a few more options for food and drink in a local village atmosphere.

    The Vale Rusurtsu is ski-in and ski-out apartment which is a dream for winter sports enthusiasts, providing convenient access to the slopes right from your doorstep. I love the modern design of this apartment and the rooms are comfortable.

    Just as fantastic as The Vale in Niseko – they have done it again, bringing everything you need under one roof. Speaking of one roof, the building joins with the resort itself, so you can literally walk from one side to the other without needing multiple layers of clothing – super easy to explore Rusutsu! Also you can ski-in / ski-out through the trees down to the chair lift :)

    Cozy apartments located in the heart of Rusutsu Ski Resort! I’m contemplating staying at The Vale Rusutsu due to its convenient access to the ski lift. The apartments also offer picturesque views of the beautiful ski resort!

    I think the architect has done a fantastic job with the style of the rooms and use of space. The apartments are roomy and come fully equipped with kitchen and laundry facilities. If you are visiting Hirafu, it’s worth visiting Rusutsu as it’s starting to take off.
