When you are in a big group, going to an onsen is the only thing you won’t want to do together!!!! haha!!!! Cherina would announce to the group where and what time she is going to reserve her slot to make sure no one will go there during her time slot! haha!! But onsen is the best thing to do after skiing to relax all the muscles you used!! It can relieve any aches and pains in the body!
I did not ski but I went to an onsen twice in 6 days just to relax and maybe heal my spine problems and it instantly did! Maybe not long term but short term it did! I went to the onsen in Vale ( for guests only while some guests have their own private in their rooms ) which is a small and cozy one with indoor and outdoor. There were not many people so it was good for me! I wish I had exerted more effort to research and go out of my way and really make time for it! Too little time always :-O I am sorry I don’t have a comprehensive feature on this but ONSEN IS A MUST in Niseko! Make sure to find one and go to one! Onsens range from Included in your hotel room to 500 yen to up to 30,000 yen! So it depends on your needs and wants and budget! :-O
Here are photos of onsens in Niseko which we did not go to!! :-O
There are unisex onsens – I don’t recommend this!! haha!! Private is always the best so you can do it at any time at your convenience and secretly 🙂 I wonder which hotel has the best private onsen
Hilton Niseko Village Onsen – WOW!!
Jose told me that Shiatsu massage in Niseko is good!! But we were not able to go!! When we had a bit of time to do so, we walked in to this place beside Vale and they were fully booked!!
