This was our second visit to Niseko and 2nd time staying at Yama Shizen. Both times we were in the east block but visited friends in the west block. Both times we have had rooms with northern views to the upper village (301, 502) and were thrilled with the outlook. The rooms are warm and clean. The staff are very helpful, there is now the convenience of ski hire in the complex and there is a restaurant in the complex also. We also used the concierge services to book transfers and skimobiling ( which was a fun break from skiing).

Stayed at Yama Shizen for a week and we were 6 people in the apt. It is in a very good location close to restaurants and supermarket (150meter). Ski rental on the property was a great convenience and we are very good skiers skiing off-piste and that had what we needed. Only negative is a slow internet.

Dear Michael, Thank you for staying with Niseko Central this winter and taking the time to leave a review of your stay. It's great to hear that your group enjoyed the convenient location of Yama Shizen. I'm also glad to hear that YamaSport in Yama Shizen West fitted your requirements. We will look into the Internet for your unit to see if there were any issues. Thank you again and I hope you will choose to stay with us again in the future!

I have stayed at Yama Shizen a couple of times now over the years and the accommodation is fantastic, It is always clean, the staff are fantastic and always helpful. The unit we had was 2 bedrooms with 4 beds, they have a laundry and drying room which shares between two units. The main unit has a large couch, table, all the cooking facilities you would need, refrigerator etc. the 2nd unit has a very small but workable cooking area. Yama Shizen i believe is very centrally located, you are about 600m from the quad lift, 600m from the gondala and 400m to the main street, 400m to Rhythm and the other speciality shops in the area, I have never stayed anywhere else in Niseko but i have no dramas highly recommending Yama shizen to first time or regular visitors to Niseko.

Thank you to Niseko Central staff for adding so much to our experience in beautiful Niseko. The apartment was awesome and the skiing fabulous. An extra big shout out to our driver Charlie. He was so helpful and gave us some great tips to help us make the most of our stay. All the staff we met were wonderful but Charlie was a standout. Really makes such a difference to your whole holiday experience when the people are great.
