Centrally located in Hirafu's Upper Village, boutique hotel Chalet Ivy offers natural hot spring baths and delicately prepared Japanese cuisine. Comfortable rooms come with mountain views and free Wi-Fi, and a free shuttle connects to ski resort Niseko Mountain Grand Hirafu a 2-minute drive away.
Opened at the end of 2012, Ivy Chalet features a private ski locker for each room on the ground floor, ski and snowboard equipment rentals and a fireplace at the lobby. Ski passes can be purchased at the 24-hour front desk, and ski lessons and in-room massages can also be arranged.
