2025 Flower Viewing Calendar for Furano Area
The Furano area in summer is home to spectacularly colorful flowers. The green season runs from late April to late October, when seasonal flowers can be viewed.
New luxury ski hotel Niseko Kyo hosted its official ribbon cutting and opening ceremony on Friday 20th of October ahead of the launch for guests on November 30th. The ceremony was attended by Kutchan Town’s Mayor Kazushi Monji, owner Datuk Seri Robert Tan and representatives of architect H2 Planning and builder Iwata Chizaki.
Niseko Kyo offers 22 keys in total from the 1st to 5th floors with the 6 Bedroom Penthouse on the 6th. The ski access and concierge are located on the B2 floor along with the restaurant. The property features in-room and balcony onsen from a natural spring (including three onsen in the penthouse), as well as a shared-onsen for guests.
“At the opening Datuk Seri Robert Tan spoke with passion about wanting to create a true ski-in and out experience” said Niseko Alpine Development’s Marketing Manager Amon Bradshaw, “where parents don’t have to carry kids ski gear long distances to get home. You can really feel that vision when you see the ski access”.
Managed by Niseko property management and travel company The Luxe Nomad and NISADE Property Management, Niseko Kyo’s location provides direct access to the Ace Family Run and is just 30 metres from the lift gates.
The luxury hotel will be home to Shirakaba by Naniwatei, led by executive chef Koji Murai. The restaurant will offer up to 12-course options featuring a high-end dining experience made with local seafood and produce.
During his opening speech Datuk Seri Robert Tan thanked the local Kutchan town office and Mayor Kazushi Monji for their support for a project and expressed his love for Niseko, especially the summer, and excitement for the future.
Niseko Kyo opens November 30th. With direct ski in ski out access, availability for early New Year, Chinese New Year and spring-skiing is expected to sell-out quickly once Niseko’s winter travellers return.
