We are delighted to share after having won Japan's Best Ski Hotel in 2023, Skye Niseko has once again been nominated as a finalist for Japan's Best Ski Hotel in the 2026 World Ski Awards, marking our seventh consecutive year of finalist recognition.

This achievement reflects the dedication of our team and the continued support of the guests who choose to stay with us season after season. It is a recognition of the experiences we strive to create every day - combining an exceptional slopeside location, spacious luxury residences, thoughtful hospitality, and the very best of Niseko.

Situated at the base of Grand Hirafu between the King and Ace Gondolas, Skye Niseko places guests at the heart of Niseko's world-renowned skiing. Under one roof, guests enjoy the convenience of dedicated ski valet and equipment rentals, natural onsen, Ryko Spa, Café Deli, and Kumo Restaurant, alongside contemporary accommodation designed for comfort, connection, and unforgettable mountain stays.
