Guest Reviews

• Samuel (10/5): Felt like an authentic Japan ski experience because of our gracious hosts and location. - Great location, fantastic food options, and the staff was exceptionally friendly.
• Ambar (10/5): We LOVED our stay at Pension Cotton Farm - Yu & Yuki are the absolute best and are so welcoming & helpful for ma -
• Karen (10/5): -
• YUKUAN (8/5): -
• Hallie (10/5): A warm, inviting, clean guesthouse, steps away from the gondola with the most gracious owners ever! - The Pension Cotton Farm is steps away from the Annapuri Gondola, but aside from that, the Staff- Yu & Yuki- the owners are the most accommodating, kind, and fun hosts we've ever experienced. We travel all over the world and will be keeping in touch with Yu & Yuki like family. The food is exceptional, the atmosphere is warm, and we will always stay here when traveling in Niseko. Highly Highly recommend!
• Joseph (10/5): Just an exceptional value and the experience of a lifetime at the Cotton Farm :) - Extremely friendly and helpful staff went above and beyond to make this a standout stay on our trip. Location is virtually ski in/ski out. I genuinely can't think of anything.
• kousei (10/5): - スタッフの方々が親切です
• Robbie (10/5): Lovely stay here. Yu and her husband were extremely helpful and friendly. Breakfast was great too. H - Lovely stay here. Yu and her husband were extremely helpful and friendly. Breakfast was great too. Highly recommend.
• Peter (8/5): -
• Milena (10/5): - Tha Atmosphere in the Pension Cotton Farm was nice, friendly and worm. Someone from the house was always there to help or answer questions. The location is excellent, just two minutes walk from the lifts! Also the vouchers with discount for the lifts in Annapuri or for the onsen hare very handy. We really enjoyed our stay, Yu, her husband and family made us feel at home!
• Sally (10/5): Here’s the finished version — natural, grounded, nothing forced: ⸻ We stayed at Pension Cotton Farm in Niseko. It’s a - Amazing position , super clean , nice bedrooms , great food
• Matt (8/5): - Very friendly family run Pension. Helped with many questions and went the extra mile with transport and food requests. Very close to the lifts so could have breaks at midday and easily return for the evening skiing
• Roger (10/5): Fabulous, at time we will all remember. - The pension was really beautiful, well laid out and location very convenient to the main gondola at Annupuri. But the true highlight was the loving and caring attention paid to us by the owners and extended family. Cannot fault it. Will go back!
• Ranford (10/5): Great ski lodge in great location - Located 200 meters from Niseko Annapuri ski field and 300 meters from the gondola and chairlifts. Very friendly family run business and excellent Japanese food. Explore the menu options, Takeshi cooked us many traditional Japanese meals not on the menu. There are also Wedtern food options. Share bathrooms can get busy, especially in the mornings.
• Cody (10/5): -
• Wei Chieh (10/5): 12月雪況平平，下次2月在來看看 - 用心的服務 無
• Gwilym (10/5): 5 Star Friendly - Must Stay - Yu and her family were exceptional hosts! Very friendly and accomodating. They took great care with celiac disease at breakfast and even made a delicious dinner option as well. The location is perfect for accessing the Annapuri slopes and shuttle bus. Our stay was lovely and comfortable. The traditional style showers and tub were an excellent way to end the evening.
• Natalie (10/5): - Location and so welcoming, amazing food Nothing, everything was perfect
• Tim (10/5): - Great location, friendly host, perfect B&B to enjoy a snowy holiday
• Alexander (6/5): - I booked Pension Cotton Farm because of the outstanding reviews and because I much prefer staying in a pension or lodge rather than a hotel, and I can confidently say this was one of the best accommodation experiences I have ever had. From the moment you arrive, you are welcomed not as a guest, but as family. Yu and Yuki are the heart and soul of this place. They are warm, generous, genuine, and caring beyond words. They truly feel like your parents during your stay, always checking in, helping with everything, and making sure you are comfortable and looked after. I have never experienced such sincere, welcoming service anywhere in the world. If you are travelling solo, this place is especially special. Yu and Yuki welcome you with open arms, make sure you are okay at all times, and create an environment where you never feel alone. They become your family and your friends. The location is unbeatable, a 2-minute walk to Niseko Annupuri, with the gondola and all six runs literally at your doorstep. Ski hire and lift tickets can be organised directly at the pension (with a discount), and honestly,don’t stress about booking anything in advance. Just book everything with Yu once you arrive. They make the entire process effortless and completely stress-free. They even drove us to the Annupuri shuttle stop, lent us helmets, and went above and beyond to help me when I developed a bad chest infection. That level of care is rare and unforgettable. The food is incredible, and the breakfast deserves its own mention,absolutely amazing. The rooms are comfortable, spotless, and perfect after a long day on the mountain. I genuinely cannot fault this place in any way. I will 100% be coming back, and I cannot recommend Pension Cotton Farm highly enough. Please do yourself a favour and book it, you will not regret it. And personally, Annupuri is the best ski side out of the four.
• Alicia (10/5): -
• Daniel (10/5): -
• Erin (10/5): Great place for my family to enjoy Niseko. - Very friendly, helpful, convenient! Right at the base of the gondola. Couldn’t have been better location. Delicious breakfast with local fruit jams. Owners go out of their way to make you feel welcome and help get your car out when stuck in the snow! Appreciated recommended directions when driving to Rusutsu. I will miss this place.
• Gary (10/5): Host was extremely friendly and went above and beyond to help with our stay - Breakfast was amazing, new and freshly cooked everyday.
• Nicole (10/5): Staying in this warm and cozy place is definitely the best choice that I made for this trip. Friendly host and good food - The customer service is absolutely great. Love the lovely host and their food. It feels warm and comfy to stay there. There’s no elevator due to the old building but it doesn’t affect my good experience staying there for a week.
• Richie (10/5): -
• Guo (10/5): Had Great days there - Breakfast and location is perfect No
• Karl (9/5): - Thank you for the experience of the wonderful hosts. The property felt like our home.
• David (9/5): - Extremely friendly helpful family hosts and excellent home cooked meals, Japanese or Western.
• Yimeng (10/5): Feel like in the home staying, very happy! - Clean,quiet, ski in and out If you have one more option for the Japanese style breakfast that will be great for us
• Pei Fang (8/5): Very good Affordable option in Niseko - This is a very cosy BnB at the Annupuri Ski Area. Yuu has patiently attended to all our queries on directions to get to the accommodation, wifi speed and connections for Zoom meetings, rental of snowboarding gear and snowboarding lesson, dinner arrangements, including how to get to our next accommodation. The included western breakfast is very nice! For dinner, Yuu’s father decides on a very reasonably priced menu upon our enquiry. We usually cleaned our plates after every meal unless we are too full. Oh yes, the fruit liqueur packs a punch. Take care when you try it! Nothing
• Scarlett (10/5): I would choose Niseko Annupuri Ski Resort again just to stay at Pension Cotton Farm! - I originally booked Pension Cotton Farm just as a convenient place near the ski resort, but it turned out to be so much more—I felt an overwhelming sense of warmth and happiness during my stay! The host is a friendly and cheerful woman who made my solo trip feel less lonely. She often chatted with me, sharing stories about her interests, work, and the local culture, making me feel completely at home. Her mother plays the piano in the lounge, her father crafts fishing tools in the workshop, and her sweet grandmother greets guests every morning with a gentle voice—small gestures that create a truly heartwarming atmosphere. The breakfast was absolutely delicious, especially the homemade fruit jam—I loved it so much that I even bought two jars to bring back to Taiwan! Their home-made fruit wine was also fantastic. I regret not trying more flavors—I should have had two different ones every day! The entire place is spotlessly clean and beautifully maintained, which is impressive for a wooden house. The bathroom was bright, pristine, and filled with Japanese charm, making my stay even more enjoyable.
• JISEUNG (10/5): - 朝食が絶品で親切でスキー場から近くて私の家のように楽でした。 ぜひおすすめします。
• Alexander (10/5): very enjoyable - stayed 2 weeks, great location , always felt welcome , very well maintained , very good cook. location 5 minute's walk from lifts/gondola 8 minutes from bus to other resorts, if wind is a problem can eat breakfast and still get the 1st bus (8.04am) to other resorts. Can ski from top of Niseko Annupuri to Niseko village , Grand Hirafu, etc. and back again. Great powder and DO ski the gates.
• Peter (10/5): Exceptional - Very personable with great breakfast, the location is so close to the slopes with ski holding facilities right at the door. Family who run the house are lovely. We would return in an instant. We had two rooms, a triple and a double, the triple was split across two floors with loads of room, the double had a small sofa and plenty of room for all our bags. The setup is also very accommodating for families as well: the communal dining area is available in the evening to rest in and eat any take out food and drink. Excellent value for money and perfect for our family. It's a little dated by modern standards and the bathrooms are communal (i.e. traditional japanese) so a bit of a culture shock for a family of 5 with three teenagers but that is not a reflection on the property, just our own naivety!
• Erasmus (10/5): Exceptional -
• Matthew (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mariya (10/5): Exceptional - The hosts are incredibly kind and thoughtful. The stay was very pleasant and definitely five-star friendly!
• Bram (9/5): Perfect - The staff were incredible nice. They helped with everything and we had a lovely stay! The family is so sweet, hope to come back one day! Could be a little more drying space.
• David (10/5): - The family who own and run this Pension are great hosts! We were made to feel very special and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
• Peter (10/5): - The family that owns and runs this pension are fantastic. I’ve never experienced more considerate and generous host anywhere. Highly recommend
• Brian (10/5): Exceptional -
• KENNETH (10/5): - These are lovely people who are genuinely just nice people. They have run this pension for 40 years and its 3rd generation, all whom which still work their bar the Patriach Granfather whosed passed. The Matriach Grandma still works here at 92. Her daughter and husband run the place and do all the cleaning and cooking and daily chores along with their extremely helpful daughter. The pension is 200 metres from runs. Its basic but its clean and its warm and its homely. Because its their year round home. So they have skin in the game. It wont be for those who want luxury stay. Personally I'd much rather stay at a place like this with a heartbeat, than a 5 star Hilton type place, where staff are paid to be sycophants. Couldnt recommend it enough. Just beautiful people.
• Schafer (10/5): The ladies at Pension Cotton Farm are the sweetest hosts. I cannot wait to come back again. - The breakfast was amazing! The french toast and homemade jam were my favorite. N/a
• Leboucher (9/5): Very nice, breakfast very cosy with nice clasical music, great attention too customers - Very cosy with fantastic welcome, friendly and warm. Great place for access to shuttle bus, ski lift, and restaurants and bar, all in walking distance
• Ngan (10/5): Exceptional -
• GIYOUNG (10/5): - 스키장이 굉장히 가깝고 직원들이 친정하다
• Matthew (10/5): I could not have asked for a better experience overall especially for my first time in Niseko - The staff was very friendly. They are such nice people. And the location next to the gondola is incredible. Lack of restaurants around the area.
• Valentin (10/5): Incredible experience that elevated the holiday - The staff is incredibly friendly, breakfast extremely delicious handmade each morning. They were extremely accommodating for all our needs. The location is very premium, less than 2 minute walk from the slopes and ski rental. Will definitely come again it will become my go to spot whenever i come to niseko. Recommending to all my friends and family. nothing. everything was perfect
• Sarah (10/5): - We stayed for one wonderful week, with 1 room for 3, and 1 double room for 1. Our hosts provided for everything, including delicious dinners, one a sushi dinner and the other a pork based dinner. Both were beautifully done and a great way to experience traditional Japanese food. As a bonus for skiiers the Inn was only about 200 yards from the Annupuri gondola and walking distance to a variety of local restaurants. A delightful experience overall.
• Sarah (10/5): - This pension was a delightful find for our first trip to the Niseko ski area. It was about 200 yards from the Annupuri gondola and quad chair. Takeshi-san and Naoko-san were very gracious and helpful hosts. Breakfast (a variety, each day was different) was included and we arranged two dinners, one sushi based and the other pork based. Very enjoyable! They also have a selection of delicious homemade fruit liqueurs. Hosts also very helpful with local info and tickets. A wonderful chance to experience traditional style of small hotel snd Japanese hospitality.
• Julio (6/5): - The accomodation is extremely basic, as is the food.. however the owners are lovely and the location is across the road from the Annpurri ski lifts . Overall , value for money location , dining and the people .. I would rate it a 6 out of 10.
• JoAnn (10/5): - The hosts were such nice people and made our stay very comfortable and homey. The dinner (to be booked in advance) was an amazing 5-courses of french cuisine and was a highlight...the best steak and best french onion soup I've ever had. Easy walking distance in ski boots to the gondola/quad and a few restaurants nearby to go out. It was nice that there were authentic parts of the Inn that kept a Japanese charm while making it very accommodating to tourists. I was a bit hesitant to stay on the Annupurni side away from some of the action of niseko/hirafu but was very happy with my chose to stay at Pension Cotton Farm and at Annupurni.
• Peter (10/5): - very very nice
• Kilty (10/5): - We loved staying at Cotton Farm. The host family cares so much about their guests and making sure that everyone is taken care of. Naoko-san really takes her time to communicate and ensure you are comfortable. Her husband cooks delicious breakfast, and gave us a ride in his personal car to the hospital when my partner broke his ankle. Michi-san is the happiest and has the sweetest smile. We also enjoyed meeting Naoko’s daughter and her husband. The facilities are clean, and we loved that the furo tub in the bathroom was very hot. There is lots of space for boards in the front area. The beds and rooms are comfy. Although the walls are a little thin, most guests are conscientious and courteous of keeping volume down. FYI, there are stairs in case you have crutches. We were VERY happy to stay here and feel grateful to have found Cotton Farm. We hope to come back.
• KUAN-YIN (10/5): - 老闆很親切，幫我們安排雪具（高級雪具品質不錯）、接送和幫我們聯絡我們掉在巴士上的包包。
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location 50 meters to annapuri gondola , 2oo meters to bus stop . Great hosts
• Richard (8/5): A pleasostay - I really enjoyed our stay. The hosts were very nice and friendly. They had great information on local conditions and places to go.
• Randy (10/5): An absolutely amazing stay. - The family there are amazing. They are super helpful and will go out of their way to accommodate. Reminder that Japanese customs follow set processes very closely, if you veer from the process you will not get the reception you are looking for. You can walk to the Annupuri slopes from the B&B. You can request dinner, at a cost, and must request at least 1 night ahead. You can walk from Nook Annupuri ski area and also from Annupuri northern resort (where the buses pick up)
• Mattias (10/5): Very friendly - Great hostel for skiers looking for a nice clean pleasant and convenient stay in Annupuri
• Verified traveler (8/5): - オーナーを始めスタッフは皆親切で、様々な相談に乗ってもらえます。外国人の方々は夜は外食されるそうですが、口コミ通り宿の夕食は美味しく、滞在中一度は試されることをお勧めします。
• Verified traveler (10/5): 還會在去住 - 老闆娘非常熱心 晚餐直接吃民宿的餐點 價格實惠
• Jeff (10/5): Very nice - Very nice bed and breakfast right next to Annupuri. Very friendly and helpful staff. Just note that you need to check in before 8pm. If you plan on arriving later you must make arrangements well in advance.
• David (10/5): Great Hotel stay - This little homestay hotel was great! It was located right next to the ski lift and it was literally a one minute walk to get to the lifts! The hosts were amazing...they don’t speak much English, but they helped us out with renting our skis and snowboard which was brought to us the next morning. They also get a discount for lift tickets. Lift tickets are cash only and rentals you can use credit card. Breakfast is served every morning and the dining area is cozy and has a fireplace to warm up in. You do have to share bathroom, but they were clean. There are a few restaurants just a few doors down, the pizza place was great. On our last day when we asked them to call a taxi for us, the guy offered to drive us to the train station for free! We would definitely stay here again.
• CK (10/5): - Host is very nice and proactive. Breakfast is delicious.
• MEGUM I (8/5): - 築年数は、25年？くらいかと思うのですが、部屋、廊下など綺麗にお掃除されて過ごしやすかったです。 近場に色々な温泉もあり(割引券も置いてありました)立地的にも分かりやすい場所です
• keith (10/5): Near ski area - Hotel is very close to the ski place. Host is good. Breakfast is included . And very reasonable price too!
• Matthew (10/5): Amazing bed & breafast near the slopes - Amazing service by the owners providing breakfast each morning. They do everything they can to ensure your stay is welcome. Traditional baths, cheap reasonable stay with minimum 2 people for Niseko accommodation. Easy access to the annupuri lifts and Niseko bus to other mountain access.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Relaxing stay close to ski hill - We had a lovely few days staying at Pension Cotton Farm and skiing in the Niseko area. The owners are extremely helpful and friendly, organizing lift passes and dinner for us on several occasions. It's a beautiful large house only a couple of minutes walk from the Annupuri gondola and we'll definitely come back on future trips to Niseko.
• Tim (8/5): Perfectly located for the Annupuri Slopes - A very friendly, family run pension less than 50m walk from the slopes at Annupuri, and just a bit further from the Shuttle Bus and Chitose airport stops. I don’t think there is a better location in Annupuri. Hosts really go out of the way to ensure everyone has a pleasant stay.
• WAN CHI (2/5): Highly NOT recommended - Unfriendly and unhelpful. Refused to provide any solutions when you need help. Rigid and unresponsive, hard to contact and never reply my emails. So disappointed about this hotel in Niseko.
• Claire (10/5): Confortable pension by the Annapuri gondola - Owners were very friendly and always trying to help for bookings, questions, suggestions on where to go. The pension is in a quiet street very very close to the ski fields and 3 min walk to the gondola. Annapuri resort is very nice and plenty to ski for a few days. If you want to ski on the whole mountain, you can too with resorts connecting at the top of the mountain. There is also a free shuttle bus which stops very close to the pension. Same stop is used by buses connecting to airport.
• Verified traveler (10/5): 離Annupuri雪場很近 - 早餐好吃，房間乾淨。主人服務很好，還會幫忙預約交通。 離Annupuri gondola只有幾分鐘的路程。 缺點就是房內空間較小， 勉強可以打開行李箱。
• aly (10/5): Cosy family run Japanese hostel - Hosts were really warm and hospitable and the room was small but cosy. It did serve our purpose well overall and we enjoyed our stay very much. Shared bathroom facilities are Japanese style (google for more info) so that’s something you might want to note.
• J (10/5): Homely accommodation very close to the ski fields - The accommodation is run by a small family who are responsible for all aspects of accommodation. They are very friendly and will try their utmost hardest to help you with any queries even with the limited English they speak (which doesn't impede communication). The environment is shows its age but is still very clean, cozy and comfortable. I would definitely recommend people to come stay at this accommodation if you were looking for somewhere to stay in Annupuri.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Excellent welcome in a fantastic pension, would highly recommend.
• Verified traveler (10/5): 讓人有家的感覺 - 距離雪場非常近，步行就可以抵達，老闆娘可以用一些英文溝通，會設法貼心的讓你理解對話內容，也可以跟老闆買到折扣的纜車票，還有免費外送的雪具租借服務。我們還去了老闆推薦的餐廳，甚至幫我們訂位。記得要拿民宿提供的附近溫泉泡湯折價卷，幾乎是一半的價格就可以泡到很棒的溫泉。如果有機會再訪二世谷，一定會再去～
• Nativenzhippo (10/5): Next to the Gondola, very helpful owners, great! - Pension Cotton Farm is a 2 min walk from the Annupuri Gondola, the rooms were spacious, the beds were comfortable and warm, breakfast was included and delicious, has its own small baths down stairs, great for relaxing after being on the slopes. Spacious dining room with a warm fire if you want to sit and chat or hang out. Hosts were very helpful, they don't speak much English but they try very hard. They gave us advice on places to go, discount coupons for the ski field and local onsens, even dropped us off at the bus stop on our way home. Several dining options nearby (frying pan next door was delicious but make a reservation). If you want to drink locally there is a bar three properties down. They have an 11pm curfew so if you are wanting to party in Hirafu late into the night, this is the wrong place for you. If you are looking for the best skiing/snowboarding, its perfect.
• Skidadle9683 (10/5): Great traditional pension close to slopes - Everything was great 2min walk to the slopes at Annapuri and you're treated extremely well. The owners speak little English and the early curfew (11pm) are the only down sides here. Well worth a stay.
• Leo (10/5): Nice bed and breakfast close to skiing resort - Very nice place that is walking distance from the Annupuri skiing resort. The owners are really helpful. Even though they speak limited English, just as others have mentioned, they still try their very best to help us out in every way. They recommended a ski rental service that delivered to the pension, and provided discount for ski pass. The breakfast was delicious. A lot of homemade items that you can tell is made with heart. The room does not include your own bathroom, and you have to share a showering facility that is Japanese style. Even though all the rooms were filled when we were staying, we did not have to wait a long line for shower. Overall a pleasant stay that we would definitely come back to when we come skiing next time.
• Verified traveler (2/5): Curfew at 11pm!!!!! - When we arrived on site we were given a paper with the rules of the hotel. In the end of this paper it was told about their curfew so you literally can not get in to sleep after 11pm. So at this time the door is locked and the hosts refuse to open the door after this time. The guests are neither handed a key to the outdoor. Please note as well that the only village with bars and restaurants, Hirafu is located around an hour by bus from the hotel so if you book a room from this cheating hotel, you would have to leave latest at 10pm from there, or otherwise you will not get in. There is almost no services in the village of this hotel.
• Rich (8/5): Lovely Pension right by the slopes - Our hosts were amazing throughout our stay, they were always to hand to ask any questions and couldn't do enough to help sort out queries and helping us rent ski equipment for our stay. Would stay again, definitely!
• Verified traveler (8/5): 交通方便 - 就是晚饭选择极少，步行8分钟的温泉酒店onsen超赞
• jonathan (10/5): Excellent location friendly hosts - We had a pleasant stay here. The hosts were very nice and friendly. They even helped us arranged transportation to our next destination. The location is exceptional just a few minutes away from the Annapuri ski area. Breakfast was nice, very nutritious.
• Jackie (10/5): Niseko ski trip - owners are hospitable and helpful. lady owner will try her best to help despite her lack of English proficiency. absolute Japanese experience. place was very clean, cosy, warm. wifi was quick. shower is Japanese bath, which water I suspect is drawn from the base of the mountain, thus very rejuvenating. breakfast every morning was sumptuous, enough to pack your stomach up to a full day of skiing. location unbeatable, literally at the doorstep of the base of annupuri.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Great b 'n' b. - Very close to the slopes. They are very nice, friendly and helpful if you need anything. Rooms are very comfortable and facilities great. Not much to fault at all. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Pension close to gondola run by friendly family - Nice pension close to gondola that is run by friendly family. Rooms are clean and of decent size. Excellent breakfast
• Gabriele (8/5): Decent Ryokan very near Niseko Annapuri lifts - The Roykan has very friendly owners that speak some English. They do good breakfast and excellent dinners. The hotel is located on a very nice street in the small and quiet Annapuri village of the United Niseko ski area. It is 2min walking to the lifts. The rooms have an 80s charm like many ryokans on Hokkaido but the location, food and friendly owners make up for that.
• Anton (10/5): 5/5 - Could not have asked for more. The hosts were extremely nice, the house was clean and spacious and the location was amazing. Thank you! We will come back.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Nice pension close to gondola. - Awesome place. Awesome owners. Awesome breakfast. Awesome location.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Nice family pension 1 min walk to the gondola - The place was awesome, the owners were awesome, and location was awesome.
• Patrick (8/5): Great place! - We spent 3 nights at Cotton Farm. It's a lovely place with a very personell touch to it. Although they don't speak much English, they are amazing at helping out all the time. It's very close to slopes, ca 1 min walk! So if your looking for cheap but nice accommodation whilst enjoying the Niseko powder - this is the place to stay.
• Robert (8/5): Nice place - It is a nice little B&B but the language barrier was a bit of a problem. I will return. There is a great buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner at the very nearby Grand Northern Resort.
• Daniel (8/5): Super friendly pension next to lift - Had a great stay during Christmas 2014 when snowfall was around the clock for our three days.
