"This hotel is the best value in the area and just a 12min drive to Niseko Hirafu ski area. We stayed in the hotel section (as opposed to the pods), in room 125 that sleeps 3. Our room was comfy, quiet and clean. Lots of socializing going on in the common area but you couldn't hear it from our room. Bathrooms and showers are shared, but were clean and never that busy. Spa wasn't anything fancy, but a really nice place to soak after a ski day and it is open round the clock, just closed for cleaning at 10am. The front desk workers spoke good English and were very welcoming. Breakfast is so good but quite expensive, especially given what a good value the hotel is otherwise. You are next door to a minimart and grocery store, so we just stocked up there and kept food in our fridge (not sure if the individual pods have fridges, but our 3person room did). Hotel has plenty of free parking, and a shuttle if you need to get around without a car. Large locker room for ski equipment is a really nice touch. PS If you book through hotels.com, it will tell you that you can change your booking without any penalty up until a certain date, this is not entirely true. Hotels.com will CANCEL your booking without penalty, then make a new booking with your change. If all units at the hotel are full, this is risky. Someone else could snag your canceled booking during this process. I paid for 2 days I didn't need bc I didn't want to risk losing it, as every hotel in the area was full."

"Stumbled onto this place when I could not find a place slopeside. Lucky to have done so. Better to be here just off the center of town with much more to do than slopeside. Place was immaculate and exquisitely thought out. Cannot imagine a friendlier more helpful staff. Eateries were well thought out and designed, and a lot of fun. Would not consider staying anywhere else in Niseko."

"This hotel is within walking distance to the canal, Otaru Station, dining options and the main shopping street. Breakfast is a great selection of local specialties. Staff are attentive and professional."

"Will definitely stay here again, if your a ski / snowboarder this is the place you want to be at, it’s affordable and has great facilities "

"Perfect base for ski trip with friends. Onsen was perfect and breakfast amazing. It is not the ritz but provides everything you need in a great location. Would go back"

"Don't worry about the bad reviews. We were a little skeptical, but this hotel has gotten their stuff together and I'm thinking the negative reviews may have been early on in their opening (or just complainers or competitors submitting reviews). My wife and I stayed here for four nights at the end of our trip (stayed in Hirafu for 9 nights prior to this hotel). This place was wonderful. All stays in Niseko are expensive in Winter but this one was one of the more affordable options in any of the four ski areas for two people. And it was perfect! The hotel is very nice and high-end, the staff are friendly and helpful as possible. Harry at the front desk was super helpful scheduling us a ride to a train station when we departed. The breakfast buffet was fantastic and the onsen was clean and has everything you need (indoor bath, outdoor bath, sauna, and cold plunge). The proximity to the lifts gives this hotel everything you need for a nice visit to Niseko. The Hanazono area is definitely the most luxurious and not too busy of lift lines. Highly recommend this hotel. "

"Onsen was heavenly."

"The Authent Hotel is a lovely hotel. I had a room on the top corner overlooking the street and it was spacious and nice. Very comfortable bed. Breakfast is traditional Japanese style, with a couple of options to choose from. I had a beautiful sashimi bowl, with miso soup and another dish I’m not familiar with. "
