Annupuri Oasis Lodge
Annupuri Oasis Lodge is a pension or ryokan in Hirafu. Guests score it 9.3 out of 10 across 122 reviews, rating comfort highest at 9.5 (read 2026-09-09). It takes summer bookings, which most of the valley does not.
Ideally situated only 8 minutes walk from the gondola at Annupuri International ski area, Annupuri Oasis 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 Hirafu.
- 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 About 5 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 Oasis 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 Oasis Lodge from central Hirafu?
- About 5 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 Oasis 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 Oasis Lodge?
- Its lowest published sub-score is facilities at 9.3, against 9.5 for comfort (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.
