Located in Kutchan, 9.3 km from Hirafu Station, Niseko Tabi-tsumugi Backpackers provides accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and ski-to-door access. 400 metres from Asahigaoka Park and 500 metres from Mishima's Shibazakura Garden, the hostel features ski storage space.

Although the property is so conveniently close to the train station, my friend and I still managed to almost miss our train to Sapporo… Ryo saved the day and drove us to the train station, carried both of our massive luggage bags up to the ticket booth, and helped us buy tickets just in time!

Located in Nakafurano, within 8.1 km of Furano Station and 13 km of Windy Garden, Other Side House provides accommodation with barbecue facilities and free WiFi throughout the property as well as free private parking for guests who drive. Built in 1999, this 1-star hostel is within 8.4 km of Furano City Office and 18 km of Furano Golf Course. The property is non-smoking and is situated 47 km from Kaguraoka Park. We really enjoyed having the entire floor to ourselves, which included three bedrooms and a dining area. This layout was perfect for our group's needs. The location was ideal, being close to Farm Tomita, a key stop on our Hokkaido summer trip. A delightful and unexpected bonus was discovering the illuminations at Hinode Park nearby, which turned out to be the highlight of our stay

Boasting ski-to-door access, Niseko Hirafu Tsukushi is situated in Kutchan in the Hokkaido region, 5.6 km from Hirafu Station and 1.1 km from Lerch Memorial Park. With a shared lounge, the 2-star hostel has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi, each with a shared bathroom. Private parking is available on site. Super nice hosts. I broke my leg skiing and the host Suke-san kindly offered to help me retrieve my rental car, ship my bags home and took me to get on the bus to the airport the next day. I couldn't have gotten home so easily without him! Besides all that, the accommodations were well run, clean, warm and quiet, beds were comfy and other travelers were friendly.

There is also a little cabinet with a lock in the "room", next to the mattress, and light blocking curtains. There is enough room for my stuff inside the "room", but also under the bed. The AC is great. Great wifi.
