Park Hyatt Niseko Hanazono

In one of Japan’s premier ski resorts, the Park Hyatt has, naturally, a spectacular mountain setting, with views out across the Annupuri range and Mount Yotei. In winter, you’ll have access to some of the world’s best powder, but summer has its charms, too – namely, golf, rafting, cycling and canoeing alongside the surrounding creeks, river and birch forest. The Hokkaido hotel has a spa, patisserie by Pierre Hermé and the only three-Michelin-star restaurant on the island.
