Where to stay when visiting Niseko Japan
November 25th, 2011 at 6:57 pmIf you are thinking about skiing in Japan for the initial time this coming northern winter you can’t go past Niseko in Hokkaido, Japan’s north island.
Niseko is located approximately 2.5 hours drive from Sapporo’s New-Chitose airport. Access to Sapporo airport is commonly via a domestic flight from Haneda airport in Tokyo. The only draw-back about access to Niseko is all international flights into Tokyo truly come in to Narita International airport which is a 1 hour bus ride across Tokyo from Haneda (the transfer between airports can add numerous hours to your journey particularly if your domestic flight doesn’t align with your international flight and bus transfer). If you have the choice of flying via Hong Kong, there are a limited number of direct international flights into Sapporo New-Chitose airport.
The bus ride from Sapporo to Niseko is relatively painless. The roads are pretty straight and there are extremely couple of hills to climb and descend as Niseko base camp is about the same altitude as the airport.
