Agent Tips

  • Make time for the property’s natural onsen after a day on the slopes; it’s an especially restorative way to wind down.
Accommodations

Warm Japanese design meets views of Mount Yotei.

Accommodations draw on Hokkaido’s landscape through warm natural materials, contemporary Japanese-inspired design, and expansive windows. The Yotei Reserve Room spans approximately five hundred sixty square feet and frames Mount Yotei through oversized windows. Guests can choose between one king bed or two twin beds.
Gym

Keep moving with Niseko as the backdrop.

The twenty-four-hour fitness center is equipped with Technogym machines, free weights, wellness balls, and yoga mats. Views of Niseko’s landscape provide a scenic backdrop whether guests are fitting in a quick workout or balancing a day spent on the mountain.
Spa

Hokkaido’s natural elements shape the spa experience.

Overlooking Mount Yotei, Spa Chasi La Sothys draws on Hokkaido’s natural hot springs and the expertise of Sothys Paris. Personalized treatments incorporate local botanicals, mineral-rich spring water, black silica, birch, and lavender, with inspiration from the traditions of the Ainu people. The result is a restorative experience deeply connected to its surroundings.
Restaurant + Bar

Two distinct dining experiences celebrate Hokkaido.

Yukibana puts Hokkaido ingredients at the center of its farm-to-table menus, moving from handcrafted pastries and locally inspired breakfasts to seafood, meats, and seasonal produce at dinner. For a more intimate experience, Sushi Nagi centers on omakase, with chefs preparing traditional Japanese sushi using seasonal seafood as views shift from Niseko’s winter powder to summer greenery.

Ume Lounge & Bar combines contemporary Japanese design with the warmth of an alpine lodge. Guests can settle in for craft cocktails, locally brewed beverages, and Japanese-inspired dishes while taking in the changing Hokkaido landscape. It works just as well for a relaxed afternoon drink as it does for a post-dinner nightcap.
  • Vibe
    Secluded and intimate, with a refined yet relaxed feel. The experience is rooted in Japanese tradition, with nature and wellness woven throughout the stay.
  • Who's it for?
    Best suited to couples, families, skiers, and wellness-minded travelers who value privacy and a strong connection to place. The ski-in/ski-out setting makes mountain days easy, while the onsen, spa, intimate scale, and nature-driven design offer plenty of reasons to slow down between adventures.
  • Location
    Higashiyama Niseko Village, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, sits within Niseko Village in Hokkaido, surrounded by the region’s celebrated dry powder and varied ski terrain. Its ski-in/ski-out setting keeps mountain access front and center while placing guests amid one of Japan’s best-known winter destinations.
