10-day Hokkaido Indy Trip Lodging
All of the hotels we experience on this trip are Western style with a Japanese flair of varying degrees. Two of our hotels feature in-hotel Onsen hot springs to recover from all that powder-slaying! All hotels are solidly in the 3-star+ range and are very comfortable, clean and cater to skiers very well.
Pricing for this trip is based on shared twin-room accommodation but single supplements (single rooms for solo travelers) are available for an extra charge, available during check out (subject to availability). |

Two of our Lodgings include in-hotel hot springs
Nights 1-4: OMO7 Hotel by Hoshino
OMO7 by Hoshino Resorts is recently renovated and very unique. Centrally located to all that the small city of Asahikawa has to offer, this is a great base not only for skiing, but also for non-ski attractions like a sake brewery, a famous zoo and more downtown eateries and karaoke joints than you can count!
All rooms feature en-suite bathrooms and showers as well as having a public spa-style hot springs. Breakfast is a variety buffet featuring both Western and Japanese food options. |

Nights 5-7: Furano La Vista Hotel
Our hotel in Furano is the La Vista Furano Hills, located in the center of town next to Furano station. This hotel is one of the best in the downtown Furano area, and is within walking distance to the amenities that the town has to offer. Unlike many ski towns, the Furano "resort area" is quite spread out and lacks good options within walking distance. With this hotel however, we're able to walk around town for our evening meals and can easily get an après beer or two.
The La Vista is one of the newer establishments in Furano, opening in late 2019. The hotel boasts a spectacular rooftop indoor and outdoor Onsen (hot springs), with beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. The rooms are quite spacious by Japanese standards and the large daily buffet breakfast features Hokkaido specialties with both Japanese and western options available. |

Nights 8-9: Hotel Nord
Centrally located in the quaint seaside town of Otaru, Hotel Nord is a great base to explore everything this cool city has to offer.
Just across the road from the old canal and right in the middle of the sushi-restaurant district, there's no end to Japanese style après ski options here! From Nord, we drive 45 minutes to ski at the Indy Pass member Kiroro Resort. |
