Pros:

Bliss Lodging was the perfect spot for our stay in Niseko! We had a wonderful time with the staff who made our stay feel safe, comfortable and fun. There are many options for bus transportation to the ski hill and to the town center but it’s also a very reasonable walking distance to and from those areas. I would recommend this spot for those visiting Niseko and will hopefully be able to visit again soon. Thank you Bliss Lodging!!

Pros:

Probably the warmest, most hospitable staff I've experienced at a hotel/lodge. They go the extra mile to make a nice experience. Also close to a bus stop with good service, so getting to slopes is quite easy.

Pros:

Our stay at Bliss was nothing short of spectacular, the staff there are INCREDIBLY kind and caring. You really feel like you are being hosted by family when you stay here. My partner and I got engaged during our trip and they went and got us cake from a bakery down the street!!

We will definitely be returning to Niseko and staying at Bliss Lodging!

Pros:

Bliss lodging made all the difference in our Niseko vacation. They took great care of us and it was like staying with friends. Sato and Tak made sure we had everything we needed and gave us great local suggestions for restaurants. They helped us out with grocery shopping and ski rentals and the local shuttle systems. It made Niseko very easy to navigate. We want to return and stay with them again.

Could not have been happier with our stay. The room was perfect and the hosts couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful. Extremely helpful when we had a flight cancellation too. Couldn’t recommend more highly

Pros:

Service is beyond great. A little outside the main part of the village but hotel offered shuttle into ski area every morning for free. Sato (manager) and drivers were phenomenal! On one occasion a couple things were going wrong as things do once in a while (unrelated and at no fault of the hotel) and Sato went out of her way to brighten my day. Highly recommend this hotel.

Warm hospitality
Pros:

This lodge is beyond amazing. The place is cozy, clean, comfortable, and modern. The hospitality was awesome, Satoko san and her team was so warm and friendly. They will help you however way they can with a smile on their friendly faces. Despite it being slightly away from where the hustle and bustle are, the shuttle pick up point is directly outside the lodge, so that, in itself more than makes up for it. So much love for this place! Thank you Satoko san!

Fantastic staff!!
Pros:

The hotel staff went above and beyond to make my 5 day solo ski trip one of the most memorable one! The people (Satoko, Tsuyo and Kana) are friendly, accommodating and always trying their best to help. It really stood out from the usually chain hotels with a very relaxing, friendly and homely experience.

I had a midnight arrival due to flight delays but they still picked up as promised, brought me to the local store to get breakfast and supplies (a must do) and patiently explained the area to me. During the stay, they hosted Takoyaki party. It was fun to see them make the food themselves and cook on the spot. A good selection of Sake and Japanese Whisky were provided. In the evening sukiyaki were provided in the reception area for free.

There is a ski bus stop right at the hotel and it comes every 20 mins. If the hotel van happens to go out at the same time they can generally give a ride. (Ski bus service ends at 20:30).

The room itself is immaculately clean and generous size by Japanese standard. It has a fully functional kitchen with utensils to make quick work of breakfast or takeout dinners. Thus it is important to stock up from the local convenience store on arrival if you want max time on the mountain.

Overall this is a memorable solo ski trip thanks to Bliss Lodging. The staff really make me feel like part of the family and experience the Japanese culture/hospitality through the daily interactions and activities, which is rare in this touristy area.
