Enjoyed a nice long stay at Freedom Inn, the staff helped ensure I had a restful stay, and provided transportation to Hanazono for access to the slopes. For a small service fee the staff will pick up a take-out dinner for you if you would prefer to eat dinner at the hotel after a long day on the mountain.

Great staff really make this place

This was our third stay at Freedom Inn. We love the location within walking distance to the ski field but away from touristy Hirafu. They have a great pick up drop off shuttle service which can take you to dinner in either Hirafu or Kutchan. Try Kutchan for a more authentic japanese experience. You can even stop by an onsen on the way! There also is a free shuttle to/from the ski lifts. The rooms are very spaceous and there is an onsen/ouffro on site too. The photos don't really do this place justice. Time for some new photos Cliff! What really makes this place shine though, is the incredible team that makes everything run like clockwork. Jo's team are all so efficient, friendly and knowledgable! Always around for a chat, to help with restaurant and shuttle bookings and they give great tips for snow and dining. We'll be back again!

Excellent Service. We will be backed every season

We really appreciate the excellent service from Jai /Wife and his team (Joe, Ken etc). Location wise, it is walking distant to Hanazono. The hotel nestle in a lovely residential area where you can enjoy peace and tranquility especially during winter. They provide daily free shuttle service to Onsen at a hotel nearby (onsen entrance fee is only 350yen after 50% discount) and to many Kutchan's restaurants and super market. I am very grateful to Joe who personally sent our stored luggages to Grand Hirafu Welcome center without us coming to collect it.

Excellent service by the hotel, with regular free shuttles to Hanazono 308 and nearby towns for dinner. Very friendly and are always willing to help out with anything. From finding a sports shop, to food places, to onsens.

Hotel close to Hanazono and amazing services

Highly recommend this hotel to anyone who wishes to ski/ snowboard in Niseko. The email response prior to my arrival was super quick. Their arrangement in terms of transportation and anything to do around the area was also amazing. They do free pick up service pretty much wherever, and whenever you want to go around the area. I am most surprised by the extra service they offer such as settling gear rental and lesson arrangements, which really simplifies our trip planning. They also have exclusive offer for Grand Hirafu and Hanazono lift pass, which helped me saved up a bit. The hotel rooms themselves are good. They have everything essential. Not luxurious, but enough to make a very comfortable stay. The hotel rooms are clean and tidy. The staff are incredibly helpful. They are great in giving recommendations and organizing things during our stay. I would like to thank all your staff, especially Tommy, for making our stay a very enjoyable and comfortable experience.

Great Hotel

Unfortunately only had one night here prior to transit to another hotel that was closer to Grand Hirafu ski fields. In hindsight I would have stayed longer, however I wanted to be closer to the ski fields at the time. The reality is that they put on a very frequent, personalized mini bus to take you wherever you want to go, so the distance to the ski fields/ town wasn't a problem and is more than made up for by the larger room and great service that was missing in town.

服务太赞

临时约朋友春节后去二世古滑雪，当地酒店要么根本订不上，要么就死贵，终于找到这家，帮朋友一家三口订了房，然后订了我自己的。但是在我自己预订时，日期选错了（应该是二月，选了三月的）。订完之后才发现，与hotels.com联系，回复说因酒店政策无法退款，便直接与酒店联系。该酒店在东京办事处的人立刻回复邮件，表示可以全额退款。然后又帮我重新订了二月的房，而且价格非常优惠。坏事变好事，太感动了！ 这个酒店房东、经理都是美国人，客人也大部分是欧美人士（我们住宿期间赶上一个瑞典的团），气氛很好，相比那些已经被嘈杂的中国人占领的大型酒店，我更喜欢这份清净和异国情调。该酒店位于二世古滑雪区域的边缘（花园），但离308缆车非常近，可以从这里一路上到山顶。酒店每天有免费滑雪接送，实际上非常便利。

Not Japanese

Well the hotel is fine if you are only there for the skiing and not to be immersed in the Japanese experience, more like a youth hostel than a Japanese hotel, overpriced. It was clean and staff nice but more like a western hotel. Do not be fooled by the picture of the bath, it is not an onsen, to have an onsen you have to take a shuttle and still have to pay.

Fantastic holidays !

Was in Kutchan for X Mas between 22 to 24 Dec. Location is a bit remoted however the Staffs initiative are "great" to improve this situation. They are very friendly, trying hard to arrange free transportation to and from your destination and very patient to explain and answer our question, obviously, we are stranger in Kutchan. We can feel their cheerful and helpful approaches are truly from their heart, it is very important for hotel industry and they really made the difference. Please keep it up :-) Benjamin Lee

Pleasant stay, thank you.

Pleasant stay throughout, and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Location is quite isolated, except that if you plan to go to Hanazono ski resort, then this hotel is perfect, as the hotel shuttle would send you there in the morning and pick you up about 4pm. After 4:30pm, the hotel shuttle could bring you to the restaurant or place you like with prior arrangement. It worked out perfectly to us, as the hotel was not too busy during our stay. When the hotel is full of guests, I am not sure it could work to everyone. As we left during the time in the morning the shuttle was reserved to bring the guests to go to Hanazono ski resort, we took the taxi to the nearby JR station. So, be prepared for it if you are leaving around that time.

숲속의 아늑한 팬션.

호텔보다 팬션이라고 해야 어울릴듯. 주변이 숲으로 둘러싸여 아늑하고 좋다. 세탁실도 있고 건물 실내도 유럽풍 인테리어라서 느낌이 많이 다름. 여름 비성수기라서 그런지 상당히 낮은 가격도 만족스럽다. 하지만 욕실이 너무 작고 실내도 낡아보이는게 단점. 헤어드라이기도 없고 설명에 실내에 온천이 있다고 하는데 없다. 아침 식사는 유럽풍이라는 식빵과 계란, 샐러드가 전부라 좀 부족한 느낌.
