Rendering of the Nikko Style Niseko HANAZONO Hotel
Nikko Style Niseko HANAZONO, the second hotel in Japan under the Nikko Style lifestyle-hotel brand of Okura Nikko Hotels, announced today that it has begun accepting reservations for next winter in advance of the hotel's scheduled opening in December 2024.
Nikko Style Niseko HANAZONO will be located at Niseko HANAZONO Resort, part of the larger Niseko United ski area at the foot of Mt. Annupuri. The hotel, which will be a short walk from the Hanazono Symphony gondola stop, will combine convenient access with beautiful views of the slopes in northern Japan's famous Niseko area, known for its world-class powder snow.
Rooms
The hotel's 234 guest rooms, including 12 studio suites, will feature large windows offering spectacular views of the area's majestic nature, including the Niseko Volcanic Group and Mt. Yotei. A total of nine types of rooms will cater to virtually every style of accommodation, including spacious rooms over 40m2 for families and groups to enjoy together, rooms with kitchens and washer-dryers for longer stays, and more. In addition, each room on the upper two floors will come with a bathing area where guests can enjoy their own private hot-spring tub.
All guests will have access to the hotel's large indoor and outdoor hot-spring baths and saunas, and a fitness center. Guests in Studio Suites and upper-floor Superior Club and Deluxe rooms will also have access to the Nikko Club Lounge, where they can enjoy complimentary continental breakfast buffets, evening cocktails, coffee/tea, etc. for an enhanced après-ski resort experience.
Dining and café/bar
In the dining room, with Hanazono's year-round natural beauty as a backdrop, guests will partake of Japanese and Western breakfast buffets featuring fresh, sumptuous Hokkaido ingredients. Both a la carte and course meals will be available for lunch and dinner, and a flexibly configurable private room will be available to accommodate one large group or multiple smaller groups.
The café/bar will serve original cocktails and whiskeys, including some prepared with locally produced distilled liquors, and delicious hot wine with hints of spice during the winter season. The atmosphere will be enhanced with rhythmic melodies curated by live DJs.
