The Village: Niseko’s Heart and Soul

The Village will be the first in Niseko to embody a comprehensive retail-and-dining concept in one complex with traditional Japanese architecture. Located close to Niseko Village’s two hotels and bustling resort activities, the Village is designed to delight guests with an all-new experience.


Situated in the heart of Niseko Village, right next to the ski runs from Mount Niseko Annupuri,The Village is a leisurely three-minute stroll from the Hilton Niseko Village, the Nisekogondola and chairlift, and the Niseko Village Golf Course.

Slated to open for the next winter season 2014, 11 retail boutiques and restaurants will cater toNiseko’s most demanding and busiest season of the year. Designed and constructed by the world renowned Shimizu Corporation, The Village is inspired by the Machiya style of Japanese architecture, evoking a genteel lifestyle. Sliding screens, wooden lattice facades and intimate walkways with traditional lanterns imbue the complex with elegance and Japanese heritage. While embracing tradition in its design, contemporary offerings in The Village creates a sensational retail and dining experience for all visitors.


The Village will operate all year-round, delighting hotel guests, visitors, locals and future residents of new developments in Niseko Village. The Niseko Village’s all-season experience just got better and more exciting!
