Great value accommodation
Staff was super friendly! Home cooked breakfast was amazing! Room heater was a little quirky though but all in all a very comfortable stay.

Cosy, basic lodge
We enjoyed our stay at Grandpapa but were not expecting the shared shower/toilets. This was fine in the end; however, the walls are super thin and you can hear everyone's muffled conversations and footsteps. Tough for sleeping if the rooms are full. Otherwise, comfortable and clean... very helpful staff and convenient options for transport/getting around.

Loved it!
The staff are fantastic! Very welcoming, we were collected from the bus stop and given a free lift back when we were leaving by Kohei (who also has a great knowledge of back country routes!!). Kohei (another Kohei, I hope I've got the names right!!) was very patient and helpful with us trying to learn Japanese from him. Breakfast was well worth waking up for, thanks to Grandpapa! Great location, with a bus service just up the road that takes you straight to the Gondala. Will definitely stay here again if we head back to Japan.

Perfectly Located Pension
Stayed here for three nights in December 2014. Excellent staff- they organised all of our ski hire for us and took us to and from the welcome centre which was lovely. Located a short walk from the main street close to all of the restaurants and bars. The free shuttle bus that takes you around Niseko stops at the end of the street (like 3 mins walk away). Only downsides were that it was quite noisy with the wooden floors- could hear other guests moving around the place quite loudly. Also, the beds are quite old and dated but fine if you're just using the rooms as a base to explore the mountain and not spending lots of time in there. Shared bathrooms were clean

เป็นที่พักทีาเหมาะกับลูกค้าแบคแพ้ค ห้องน้ำในบางโซนค่อนข้างไกลถ้าเป็นคนเจ้าห้องน้ำบ่อย แต่ก็ไม่ได้รู้สึกลำบากอะไร ที่นอนสะดวกสบาย มีที่แปลงฟันหลายชั้น อาหารธรรมดา เหมาะสมราคา

편안함을 주는 숙소
스키시즌이 아닌 여름철에 묵은 곳. 마치 도쿄근교 가루이사와에 와있는 듯한 느낌. 주변의 녹색공간으로 인해 충분히 힐링됨. 숙소제공 할인권을 갖고 찾아간 부근의 온천은 로텐부로까지 갖춰진 좋은 온천이었다. 아침에 제공해주는 서양식 조식도 충분히 만족스러웠음.

낡은 목조건물 펜션
목조건물 특유의 분위기와 느낌이 있어요 공동거실이나 식사하는곳 모두 포근하고 스위스산장같은 느낌입니다 다만 좀 낡은 목조건물이라 깔끔한걸 원하시는분은 다른데를 찾아보세요 화장실도 1층으로가야만합니다 매니져분이 예약후 송영서비스있다고 메일도 보내주시고 영어도잘하시고 친절했습니다 조식도 깔끔한 원플레이트 서양식아침식사였어요
