Annupuri Mountain View Lodge
Annupuri Mountain View Lodge is a pension or ryokan in Annupuri. Guests score it 9.2 out of 10 across 106 reviews, rating cleanliness highest at 9.4 (read 2026-09-09). It takes summer bookings, which most of the valley does not.
Ideally situated only a few minutes walk from the gondola at Annupuri International ski area, Annupuri Moutain View Lodge offers the easiest access to the peak as well as the best deep powder runs, off-piste and backcountry Niseko has to offer.
- Among the cheapest quarter of places in Annupuri.
- A modest number of reviews — enough to say something, not enough for the score to be settled.
- Far enough from Hirafu that getting to the village is a deliberate trip.

Before you book
Drawn from what the record actually shows about this property — not from staying here. Where the data says nothing, neither do we.
- 01 The weak point is facilities, at 9
The overall score is an average, so a 9 sits hidden inside it while the best sub-score is 9.4. On a ten-point scale a gap that size is where the complaints concentrate — read what reviewers say about facilities specifically.
- 02 About 4.9 km from the centre of Hirafu
That is the distance to the only walkable restaurant district in the valley. Check the shuttle timetable before you plan an evening out — the last bus back decides it, and it thins out at the start and end of the season.

Questions
- Is Annupuri Mountain View Lodge open in summer?
- Yes. It accepts summer bookings, which puts it in the minority here — most of Niseko closes when the snow goes. Facilities inside a property can still close out of season even when rooms do not, so confirm the bath and any restaurant separately.
- How far is Annupuri Mountain View Lodge from central Hirafu?
- About 4.9 km (read 2026-09-09). That is the distance to the centre of Hirafu village, which is not the same as the distance to a lift — we publish the measure we can verify for every property rather than the one that flatters.
- How much does Annupuri Mountain View Lodge cost?
- It sits in the ¥ band — under ¥60,000 a night at peak (read 2026-09-09). Rates move with the season and with how far ahead you book, so treat the band as the shape rather than the number and check live rates.
- What do guests complain about at Annupuri Mountain View Lodge?
- Its lowest published sub-score is facilities at 9, against 9.4 for cleanliness (read 2026-09-09). On a ten-point scale a low sub-score is relative rather than damning, but it is where the criticism concentrates.
