SKI IN SKI OUT NISEKO HOTELS & APARTMENTS  
BOOK NOW FOR 2025-26

For a lot of visitors, choosing Niseko accommodation with ski in ski out access to the slopes is at the top of their list of priorities! For those with young families, or those who simply want the ultimate in convenience, there is nothing quite like being able to step out your front door and have immediate access to the lifts. Not to mention the excitement of expansive ski hill views from many of the hotel rooms and apartments on offer. As Niseko weather is particularly renowned for its extreme snowfall, the idea of avoiding battles with snow on the streets and skiing straight onto the mountain can seem rather appealing! The good news is that Niseko ski in ski out accommodation is becoming ever more plentiful, with new ski in ski out properties such as Muwa Niseko being built all the time. Between the two main areas to stay of Hirafu and Niseko Village, there are over a dozen ski in ski out properties to choose from.

We have put together this guide to help you decide which Niseko ski in ski out accommodation is right for you and your group, and can help you book it together with the services you need to create your perfect Niseko ski holiday. First, you need to choose the Niseko resort area in which you want to be based. Hirafu Village is the main accommodation area, with Niseko Village also a hub of ski in ski out hotels. Both resorts are part of the same interconnected Niseko United ski area and provide a variety of ski in ski out Niseko hotels and apartment complexes to suit a variety of budgets. Niseko’s Moiwa ski area now offers ski in ski out accommodation as well, which you can find detailed at the bottom of this page. And for those looking to lock in ski in ski out accommodation at the best possible price, we are currently offering early bird deals for Niseko 2025-26 bookings on the majority of these properties.

One thing to bear in mind with early or late season bookings, is that if the resort is not fully operational, ski in ski out access may not be possible – you can find out more in our Japan ski season guide, and our expert team is at hand to provide further advice.
