What a gem in Hirafu. Incredibly well located - easy access to ski schools, supermarket, restaurants and cafes. Small hotel with a nice personal touch, good-sized rooms and stylish interiors. In the same property are Niseko Pizza, Ennishi Japanese and a massage centre! Amazing! Thank you John at the front office!
We stayed at J-Sekka from end of March to beginning April on the 3rd floor apartment. It had a gorgeous view, very modern and clean. The only gripe was there were no lifts and we had to lug our luggage up 3 floors. Luckily I packed quite lightly this time, as there was a washing machine. Short walk to all restaurants, ski rentals and Hirafu Family Quad lift.
J-Sekka is the best run hotel in the Niseko area. It is close to all activities including skiiing. The management and its staff are more than happy to accommodate and anticipate their guests’ wishes. Nothing is out of reach. The staff speaks impeccable English. The rooms are fully equipped for families and couples alike. This is not only a boutique hotel, but one which is the admiration of chain branded hotels. A visit to Niseko would be amiss without a stay at this boutique hotel. The view from the rooms of the surrounding mountains is simply breathtaking and spectacular. It is a backdrop reminiscent of films. Quintessentially the best hotel in Niseko by far. Again, it’s not only the view, and accommodation but their staff that is eager to please that sets it apart from the rest. A stay here would not go amiss. …
Really loved staying at this centrally located hotel and all the support of Ski Japan! We are hoping to return as soon as December of this year. The staff was friendly and always helped us arrange dinners, activities, and anything else we needed.
Booking was very stressful and took more than 20 mails and 3 days of threats of cancellation from skijapan.com, before the case was escalated to management at skijapan.com and we were finally allowed to pay the listed price + listed fees, without further threats of cancellation from skijapan.com. Seems trivial that the listed price + listed fees is the price you are supposed to pay. Not at skijapan.com, unless you want to spend stressful days complaining to them. Once you get past the terror of skijapan.com customer service and payment process, the actual hotel is very nice and well worth the money. Actually a 5 star experience and my 3 star review is only because of the stress of paying for the booking. At the hotel we even got an extra bedding for free- maybe as compensation, maybe they were just being nice. Not sure - but appreciated. So if you get through the payment gateway from hell, J-Sekka is much recommended !…
