Founded in 1982, Pension Fullnote features natural wooden decor and a garden. The pension is 3.1 km from Niseko Village Ski Resort. Niseko Annupuri International Ski Area is 5 km away. Free private parking is available on site.

The hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. The staff, especially Nyokki, were exceptionally welcoming and professional throughout my stay. Their warmth and attentiveness made me feel valued as a guest. The service was prompt and efficient, and Nyokki went above and beyond to ensure my comfort. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a memorable and enjoyable stay.

    The hotel was spotlessly clean, amazing cleaning staff. Great buffet breakfast, though pretty much identical every day. Great location next to Max Value (supermarket) and Daiso. Appreciated the in-room humidifier. Wonderful shuttle to and from the mountain. This is one of the few remaining affordable accommodation options in Niseko. Having first come in 2005, every trip I end up staying further and further out. However, as Niseko has westernised over the years, I much prefer the charm and real Japaneseness of Kutchan.

    - Property is a 5 minute walk from kutchan Station, 3 minute walk from a supermarket, so you can cook and prepare food as you like. - The views around the property are gorgeous. - There is also a free shuttle every morning to the slopes. - The place is clean and has a homey vibe. - manager Ryo-san is an asset to this place, he is an expert on the area and a great host. I highly recommend this place to anyone who comes to niseko/kutchan, whatever the season.

    The premises is a hostel that caters for skiers during Winter. We had the tatami beds in a private room and if we can cope aged 57 and 60 anybody can! It was the cheapest we could find but we enjoyed, aside from the cold showers, but it was cheap in comparison 😀

    Tbox was in a great location. Walking distance to many places. The facilities were perfect for a ski trip with a storage room and laundry facilities. Danny our host provided us with great information at all times of the day/night.

    Hostel with quiet and respectful guests. Incredibly kind hosts, beautifully served breakfast, and convenient ski shuttle to Hirafu. A welcome escape from the Hirafu ski town vibe.

    We had an amazing stay here. Riyo is a great host and went out of his way for us multiple times. Pick ups from the train station and morning shuttles to Mt Hirafu made things so easy. The dorm rooms are the most spacious I have had and they are super private and warm. The common areas are clean and inviting. You feel at home the moment you walk in. The kitchen has everything you need and the effort Riyo puts in for cleanliness doesn't go unnoticed. Highly recommend this place.
