We loved our stay at SnowDog. The staff was so kind, responsive, and helped us to book ski passes, ski rentals, ski lessons, transportation, and dining during our 5 day stay. It was so nice to have a kitchen set up in our suite, and ski storage and life shuttle service, for such a great price. We would definitely recommend and stay again.

We didn't. The staff is fantastic and SnowDog Village, our condo was really nice and the free shuttle to and from Niseko Village was helpful. Without a car, however, it was difficult to get to a market and restaurants. Also, there was a restaurant onsite at one time that was closed when we stayed. Very quiet and close to the slopes.

Fantastic, wonderful staff!! Would love to have an outdoor hot tub, but if it needs/preferred to be solar powered I know it is challenging in the winter. Possibly a welcome beverage in the room and a small selection of tea/coffee for the first day before we had a chance to go shopping?

The staff went above and beyond to help us on our check-in and check-out days as we stayed during off season with no car, we felt super welcomed. The condo was much larger than we expected (for Japanese standards), and we loved that it had a stocked kitchen and in-unit laundry. The smart TV was also a perk. Cute little restaurant just around the corner, beautiful Mountain View’s from all windows, and the local bus stop about a block away. Even better, the Takahashi Dairy milk KOBO was only about a ten minute walk and they have THE BEST ice cream we have probably had in our lives, you’ve gotta check it out.

Excellent customer service. New building and our suite had everything required for a great stay. All in one laundry /dryer a bonus. Absolutely recommend a car for flexibility. Taxi service not reliable during the busy season. Extremely close to niseko village and only impediment to ski in/ski out is the unfortunate, but equally reasonable, ban on road skiing. Thanks snow dog

Good shuttle service to and from the slopes. We ordered breakfast packs a few days but did not expect it to come as late as it did (after noon) which meant that we did not have any breakfast on the first day of our stay. It would have been nice to know that we should have ordered it a day in advance for it to be available on the next day’s morning.

The rooms are very clean and the laundry is next level; there is a washer AND dryer as one unit in each room so you can put your things in overnight while you sleep and they are clean for the next day! If you want to cook there is a full on kitchen, dishes, stove and fridge in each room as well and Apple TV and good Wi-Fi - anything you could need really The staff really do go above and beyond. They picked us up from our airport shuttle drop off and they would take us to the mountain every day we needed! They are so accommodating Not only that, they actually let us store luggage after we checked out for the day until our next rental came up and they even dropped us with our luggage off at our next rental location. Seriously the best experience and service I’ve ever had from a stay facility. Very fair pricing- probably the best pricing in this town, and I think I will stay here each year now. Also if you like dogs they have a couple very sweet small dogs in the office. Please help this business thrive everyone; they are really the best.

There is not much around the area as far as stores or restaurants, and transportation without a car requires some planning.
