We absolutely loved our stay here and wish we could have stayed longed. This place is really magical and special - from the lovely woody smell to the warmth and kindness of the landlords, not forgetting the really tasty breakfast and fine selection of jazz music. Waking up in our lodge room felt so special with the lovely views of the snow falling. Would recommend anyone to stay here, perfect for couples or family groups. Can't wait to come back already!!! :D

This is a quaint Japanese run hotel with very friendly and hospitable proprietors. The breakfast is nice and typical of small family run Japanese hotels. Rooms are comfortable and not your standard Prince hotel types. …

I've been traveling to Niseko to ski for over a decade and have always stayed with Toshi and Rie at Woody Note. This is a basic pension in "log cabin" buildings, but what makes me return is the tremendous hospitality of the hosts! …
