Karimpani Niseko Fujiyama - Hostel

The staff was so fun! Max is incredibly accommodating and makes sure that all the things for your trip are taken care of. The food is unbelievably delicious and the company of the people who stay here is like family. Even though the location is a little off the beaten path there are plenty of things that you can do with the hostel. There are onsen tours each evening to end your day on the slopes the most relaxing way possible.

Everything.. But above all Max generosity. A real heaven with an owner who does everything to make sure you feel home. NISEKO won't be the same without this experience.

Everything was just perfect..

I really felt like family. Staff and guests made it the accommodation highlight of my trip. Shuttles to and from winter destinations (ski resorts and onsens) and good food on location. Everything you need. I will return! Thank you for the amazing stay Karimpani Niseko Fujiyama!!!

The whole staff was wonderful - a lot of young folks woofing for the winter and a few locals. Max, the owner speaks really fluent English and is so helpful with everything. He was very quick to answer email questions before we arrived, and made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. This is a hostel, so if you are a light sleeper like me, definitely pack an eye mask and a pair of ear plugs and be ready to interact with your fellow guests. If you have the money(i.e. you can afford a little more than combini dinners) dinner at Karimpani is absolutely worth the investment. Always delicious Japanese home style and you leave totally stuffed for less than $12 US. The shuttle service to the Niseko ski fields every morning and afternoon is great, as well if you come without a vehicle like we did. There is a gear drying room so your space doesn’t smell like stinky wet ski boots and gear, and ample space for skis in the front entry. This is a very clean and welcoming hostel, definitely book it if you have the chance! Loved everything about our stay!!

Nothing!
