Rusutsu Resort Hotel & Convention - North & South Wing
What this hotel lacks in modern design it certainly makes up for in fun, excitement and convenience. Located almost ski-in-ski-out, the hotel is home not only to its own restaurants, pools, activity centre and onsen but also to a stunning shopping plaza, a carousel and a shopping and game arcade.
It contains many traditional Japanese elements, as the area is not a hugely popular one for tourists, but easily accommodates those looking for western comforts. The hotel boasts an indoor wave pool and an outdoor pool, a steaming onsen, an in-house spa and spacious, comfortable rooms.
The rooms, particularly those situated on higher levels, are subject to stunning views of the snowy landscape and, for the lucky ones, Mt. Yotei, also known as Hokkaido's Mt. Fuji. Rooms are available in both western style bedding and Japanese tatami room designs and each is fitted with large bathrooms, plenty of space and comfortable bedding.
The resort is particularly family friendly, not only offering plenty of activities and decorations to keep the kids entertained but also, a wide variety of dining options and international dishes and family oriented rooms. The entire hotel is of good value, again because it’s not saturated with tourists, so you can expect everything to be reasonably priced – from the food to the day trips and activities.
Despite the hotel’s relative distance from any larger cities or towns, everything you could need is provided in the shopping plaza and transport services are provided. Again, in spite of this, the staff speak extremely good English and the reception, spa and concierge services are extremely friendly and helpful.
The resort is definitely unique and offers an experience unlike any other in Japan. From the pop music you’ll hear throughout the day to the 1980’s décor and arcade, the hotel provides guests not only with the perfect destination from which to explore the slopes but also to explore the resort itself and all it has to offer.

Shopping
Olde World Carnival
It’s not uncommon to feel as though you’ve just stepped into another world when you enter the shopping district of the resort – it’s something otherworldly that seems as though it belongs more in Disneyworld than it does in Japan’s ski mountains.
Despite this, the energy, warmth and playfulness of the shops are appreciated, as is their huge variety and quality goods. Everything from Christmas decorations to souvenirs to groceries can be purchased from the many shops here, and you could easily spend a whole afternoon browsing the offerings.
Don’t let the appearance put you off – it’s for big kids as much as it is little kids. There are stuffed animals and alcohol, china and glassware, paper dolls, ski equipment and chocolate all on offer.
