🍕We'll be going to the RC Niseko and PH Niseko in September. Your last two videos helped a ton! I think we'll rent a car to drive around and do some hiking...
The Hilton gondola is still not changing; it is small and old. I used to stay at Hilton Niseko until it started to charge a 20% service fee from 10%. I just looked up this Ritz for a five-night Christmas trip. Its room rate now is $2,300 a night. I had a bad experience eating at the Niseko Village above the Hilton. From your video, the food is the same, bad. Great video! 👍👍👍
Liked the onsen, got there super late the first night and all the food options were closed so that sucked. Don't ski or snowboard so don't know if i'd stay here again.
Would love to hear your thoughts about a summer trip here. Looks like it's a lot less and we don't ski/snowbaord. We loved Mandapa in Bali. It's truly one of the best hotels I've ever stayed at.
RCR is within walking distance of the Hilton, past the main village. The main lift up to the top is at the Hilton, so you'll probably take the short transit lift and then board down to the Hilton. I've heard mixed things about the Hilton but if the price is right :) Food is cheaper on this side vs. Hyatt. RCR food is expensive but the village is close enough. Park Hyatt is nice but more isolated (no "village" area). Bigger property and better benefits though (if you have Globalist). For skiing/snowboarding, RCR has some fun black runs, especially early in the morning. Lots of people also go under the ropes to get the areas around the Kozan no sawa bowl - YMMV on that obviously. PH is great if you're trying to do backcountry (lots of gates). Otherwise runs are pretty tame and intermediate friendly until the pizza lift area. I did a skiing video to show some of the areas: ua-cam.com/video/7D5XfK86Rlw/v-deo.html
🍣 Sushi making truly an art. Almost 30 mins, thanks Sebby
wow this looks so fun!
When ski trip??
The hotel look very nice. Overall the video was great as usual. Keep up the good work. 👍🏿✌️
Glad you enjoyed it! :)

Should be beautiful :)

Yeah, that area could definitely use more competition + food options!
Beautiful location
Not Sebby casually mentioning "the second flush makes it sound like it is darker" 💀
Did you crash into trees at 16:20 which is why the clip was cut? 😂
Nah, the footage wasn't as interesting after that.
Good video
Excellent video 🧐🧐

Tough to justify if you don't like winter sports.
Hopefully one day I pick up snowboarding so I can return.
Let me know if you do! Community ski/snowboarding trip :)

It’s not part of Bonvoy, but Bvlgari is a part of Marriott and is probably overall more highly regarded. Great video!
On the list to try!
🍕Platinum status welcome amenity? No hotel platinum lounge?
Lol, the Ritz-Carlton Reserve is not that type of property. If you want benefits, you'll need to book via a Marriott STARS travel agent.
How many points was it a night?
Ranges from 80k-132k points per night depending on the season.
🍕 What does spring or fall season look like for people who don't ski?
Golf, hiking, biking, horseback riding
🍕 snowboarder. Which is better in your opinion 1. Park Hyatt or ritz Carlton reserve there in Niseko? Also how far off is the Hilton there?

@@SebbyFung thank you so much for your time! That was an extensive and well thought reply. Goes to show why you’re one of the best at what you do!
🍕 Ive heard Ritz Reserves are the top of the top for Marriott. After your stay would you agree?
Definitely up there! Loved the location and hard product. I think soft product (especially pre-arrival) could use some work though.
🍕🍕🍕
🍕 no, unfortunately...
🍕
so PH > Ritz? 🍕
Depends on which hills your optimizing for. Ritz is better for advanced skiers. For hard product, I think PH wins.
