A Gallery Stay Enjoyed in a Traditional Folk House in the Niseko Forest

Opened in 2022 by relocating and restoring 150-year-old traditional folk houses in the forest of Niseko-Shakotan-Otaru Kaigan Quasi-National Park. Under the concept of a "gallery stay," contemporary art, including works by British owner Shouya Grigg, who handled the architecture and design, colors the interior. A panorama of Mt. Yotei and the valley spreads out from the large windows in the guest rooms, and the scenery that changes its expression moment by moment liberates your sensibilities. The free-flowing hot spring water and original courses using local ingredients are also popular.
