The Maples at Niseko is a superbly run hotel. It’s conveniently located and easy to walk to the gondola/ski lessons/supermarket/cafe and restaurants. In addition they offer a free service to drop and pick up so we never had to walk with our ski gear or of the weather was very cold! Staff is very friendly and go the extra mile to help. The place is run very efficiently and adds it a fun and relaxing holiday. It’s a ski in/ski out facility too. The concierge desk is very helpful with information and bookings and helped with all our requests. Rooms are tidy and well maintained. Will definitely return!

This is one of the best hotels I have stayed, while traveling. The front desk staff and concierge were excellent with assisting and guiding us through our stay in niseko. A big shoutout to Doris and Yuri for their patience and support. This hotel is very convenient for people who love skiing as the mountain was right behind the hotel. There are also amazing eateries nearby.

I spent a lot of time researching places and listening to advice from friends about where to stay in Niseko, and am so glad we chose the Maples. The location is terrific, right on the family run, and an easy walk to the main village intersection/shops but not right on the main town road. Booking with Nisade made everything very easy - airport transfers, ski hire (you can return them in the lobby which was so much better than trekking back to the store). Chose a 3 bedroom apartment with a street view, which cost less than a ski run view, and was glad we had that side of the building as watching the street life was interesting. It had a beautiful view of Mt Yotei, and the cushioned platform sitting area next to the windows was a big hit with everyone. The apartment was completely quiet which was a huge plus. There is no onsen, but most hotel onsens seem to be tiny anyway, whereas the hotel right next door has a very large one with multiple pools including one that is outside (albeit under a balcony) for Y2000 that we used most nights. Super happy with our stay.

This is the second time we have stayed at the Maples in Niseko, despite a general rule to always stay or try somewhere different. It was definitely more popular this time around, and it's obvious why - optimum location (ski in ski out), clean amenities, modern fittings, and above all else very friendly and helpful staff. Particular note to concierge, Katie Clubb, who went above and beyond to accommodate us and make our trip as good as it was- thank you. There are other elements - good relations to the Rhythm, Snowboard / ski lessons can be taken just outside on the Family Run; the restaurants downstairs and upstairs (they even remembered our names!). Pricing is as expected for the region and times visited, but very reasonable. Strongly recommended

Hotel Room was clean and tidy, beds were comfortable and the room was comfy, we had a fantastic stay. The hotel has easy access to both the street and to the snow (ski, snowboarding). It is within a good proximity of restaurants and a large amount of shops (convenience stores and winter sports shops). Easy to walk towards Niseko’s largest rental shop (Rhythm Japan). Overall a fantastic hotel and one of if not the best in Niseko.

This was the second time staying at the The Maples, loved the location, ski in ski out convenience and size of the room, this time it was myself, my wife and son, we stayed in a Deluxe room which was perfect for a small family, has a kitchen which was great for getting out on the slopes quickly every morning. Location is good walking distance to all the restaurants and supermarket. The hotel doesn't have an onsen but you can use the onsen in the prince hotel directly adjacent for 2000Yen adult/1000Yen child which we did on multiple occasions. Just before we arrived rain had washed all the snow away but the hotel was very accommodating in providing transport to Hanazono on the two days our son had lessons. The snow wouldn't stop pouring from the third day so we decided to extend for another two days, big thanks to the manager Blake for helping us find a room to extend. A massive shout out to Katie from the conciege who if it wasn't for her help we would not have managed to find transport to the airport, it was holiday season and all the taxi companies were fully booked so we were so grateful for her help. Overall a great holiday and will definately come again, big thanks to the whole team!

Very nice place. We had a 2+1 bedroom unit, rooms are beautiful & adequately equipped with all we may need. Toiletries, towels, humidifier, iron, drying racks, nespresso, toaster, kettle, cooking & eating stuff etc. the best part is, they are very very clean. It’s a ski in-out property. Ski lockers in the basement, ski down from the lift and store them in the lockers or put in your skis & ski down to take the lift. Staff are all helpful & friendly. Everyone speaks English, even arranged shuttle for us to go around hirafu. There’s also a physio onsite, managed to solve my daughter’s shin & ankle problem in just 1 session. We will stay here again, good pricing & most importantly, we had a fantastic stay.

The employees are stellar, so friendly and kind. Especially Caio and Ioan, who helped us get home after finding out taxis had stopped running at midnight. We would've been sleeping in the Welcome Center otherwise. Thank you doesn't suffice!

Stayed at 2nd fl studio, facing mountain. A bit too low so view was slightly blocked by some structure but still good. Room size was good for 2, with 2 opened suitcases lying on the floor. Dining table was small, Japanese standard size. With 2 cups of coffee, very little space for 2 plates. Kitchenette equipped, washer & dryer w/detergent, iron, clothes rack all in. Shower was so comfortable, good water temp & pressure, has seat to relax as you shower. Basic shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, bathroom amenities. Each room has own ski lockers at B1, really a ski-in/out location. This is the BEST feature. From outside the locker room, you can access the family hill, skied down to the lift and ski down this hill. Its a night ski area too, so beginners can spend the whole day here. Its a bit narrow comparatively & so it felt crowded at times, but most times it was ok. 2nd and last day were magical at this hill. Powder snow, at night we were about the only 5-6 people at the slope. Night ski closes at 7pm. There is another 1 hotel at this hill, also ski-in/out, but Maples is hands-down, the better location as its door is just at this hill, no need to walk at all, other than just to put on your skis. There are 2 restaurants on site, we only visited the Italian. Most of the good eating places were so packed and needed to queue. We were thankful for this Italian restaurant which served really good pizzas and beef cheek. Able to walk in without queueing, place is about 80% full most times. After 3 dinners, they recognized us and actually saved us seats. Concierge was friendly and super helpful. Another great feature was the van to & from Maples to where we needed to go. Book the transport early (at least 1 day) to get to and back from gondola - trust us, you WILL really need it. Tried lugging ski gears from the nearest bus-stop, and walking upslope in ski boots after a day of skiing, it was so tiring. Very nearby: convenience store, a popular ramen shop, Arabica coffee truck (not open daily), snack food trucks
