We stayed for one wonderful week, with 1 room for 3, and 1 double room for 1. Our hosts provided for everything, including delicious dinners, one a sushi dinner and the other a pork based dinner. Both were beautifully done and a great way to experience traditional Japanese food. As a bonus for skiiers the Inn was only about 200 yards from the Annupuri gondola and walking distance to a variety of local restaurants. A delightful experience overall.

This pension was a delightful find for our first trip to the Niseko ski area. It was about 200 yards from the Annupuri gondola and quad chair. Takeshi-san and Naoko-san were very gracious and helpful hosts. Breakfast (a variety, each day was different) was included and we arranged two dinners, one sushi based and the other pork based. Very enjoyable! They also have a selection of delicious homemade fruit liqueurs. Hosts also very helpful with local info and tickets. A wonderful chance to experience traditional style of small hotel snd Japanese hospitality.

The hosts were such nice people and made our stay very comfortable and homey. The dinner (to be booked in advance) was an amazing 5-courses of french cuisine and was a highlight...the best steak and best french onion soup I've ever had. Easy walking distance in ski boots to the gondola/quad and a few restaurants nearby to go out. It was nice that there were authentic parts of the Inn that kept a Japanese charm while making it very accommodating to tourists. I was a bit hesitant to stay on the Annupurni side away from some of the action of niseko/hirafu but was very happy with my chose to stay at Pension Cotton Farm and at Annupurni.

We loved staying at Cotton Farm. The host family cares so much about their guests and making sure that everyone is taken care of. Naoko-san really takes her time to communicate and ensure you are comfortable. Her husband cooks delicious breakfast, and gave us a ride in his personal car to the hospital when my partner broke his ankle. Michi-san is the happiest and has the sweetest smile. We also enjoyed meeting Naoko’s daughter and her husband. The facilities are clean, and we loved that the furo tub in the bathroom was very hot. There is lots of space for boards in the front area. The beds and rooms are comfy. Although the walls are a little thin, most guests are conscientious and courteous of keeping volume down. FYI, there are stairs in case you have crutches. We were VERY happy to stay here and feel grateful to have found Cotton Farm. We hope to come back.

An absolutely amazing stay.
The family there are amazing. They are super helpful and will go out of their way to accommodate. Reminder that Japanese customs follow set processes very closely, if you veer from the process you will not get the reception you are looking for. You can walk to the Annupuri slopes from the B&B. You can request dinner, at a cost, and must request at least 1 night ahead. You can walk from Nook Annupuri ski area and also from Annupuri northern resort (where the buses pick up)

Great Hotel stay
This little homestay hotel was great! It was located right next to the ski lift and it was literally a one minute walk to get to the lifts! The hosts were amazing...they don’t speak much English, but they helped us out with renting our skis and snowboard which was brought to us the next morning. They also get a discount for lift tickets. Lift tickets are cash only and rentals you can use credit card. Breakfast is served every morning and the dining area is cozy and has a fireplace to warm up in. You do have to share bathroom, but they were clean. There are a few restaurants just a few doors down, the pizza place was great. On our last day when we asked them to call a taxi for us, the guy offered to drive us to the train station for free! We would definitely stay here again.

Amazing bed & breafast near the slopes
Amazing service by the owners providing breakfast each morning. They do everything they can to ensure your stay is welcome. Traditional baths, cheap reasonable stay with minimum 2 people for Niseko accommodation. Easy access to the annupuri lifts and Niseko bus to other mountain access.

Relaxing stay close to ski hill
We had a lovely few days staying at Pension Cotton Farm and skiing in the Niseko area. The owners are extremely helpful and friendly, organizing lift passes and dinner for us on several occasions. It's a beautiful large house only a couple of minutes walk from the Annupuri gondola and we'll definitely come back on future trips to Niseko.

Perfectly located for the Annupuri Slopes
A very friendly, family run pension less than 50m walk from the slopes at Annupuri, and just a bit further from the Shuttle Bus and Chitose airport stops. I don’t think there is a better location in Annupuri. Hosts really go out of the way to ensure everyone has a pleasant stay.

Confortable pension by the Annapuri gondola
Owners were very friendly and always trying to help for bookings, questions, suggestions on where to go. The pension is in a quiet street very very close to the ski fields and 3 min walk to the gondola. Annapuri resort is very nice and plenty to ski for a few days. If you want to ski on the whole mountain, you can too with resorts connecting at the top of the mountain. There is also a free shuttle bus which stops very close to the pension. Same stop is used by buses connecting to airport.

Cosy family run Japanese hostel
Hosts were really warm and hospitable and the room was small but cosy. It did serve our purpose well overall and we enjoyed our stay very much. Shared bathroom facilities are Japanese style (google for more info) so that’s something you might want to note.

Homely accommodation very close to the ski fields
The accommodation is run by a small family who are responsible for all aspects of accommodation. They are very friendly and will try their utmost hardest to help you with any queries even with the limited English they speak (which doesn't impede communication). The environment is shows its age but is still very clean, cozy and comfortable. I would definitely recommend people to come stay at this accommodation if you were looking for somewhere to stay in Annupuri.

Next to the Gondola, very helpful owners, great!
Pension Cotton Farm is a 2 min walk from the Annupuri Gondola, the rooms were spacious, the beds were comfortable and warm, breakfast was included and delicious, has its own small baths down stairs, great for relaxing after being on the slopes. Spacious dining room with a warm fire if you want to sit and chat or hang out. Hosts were very helpful, they don't speak much English but they try very hard. They gave us advice on places to go, discount coupons for the ski field and local onsens, even dropped us off at the bus stop on our way home. Several dining options nearby (frying pan next door was delicious but make a reservation). If you want to drink locally there is a bar three properties down. They have an 11pm curfew so if you are wanting to party in Hirafu late into the night, this is the wrong place for you. If you are looking for the best skiing/snowboarding, its perfect.

Great traditional pension close to slopes
Everything was great 2min walk to the slopes at Annapuri and you're treated extremely well. The owners speak little English and the early curfew (11pm) are the only down sides here. Well worth a stay.
