Is Q FOX BLACK DIAMOND HOTEL open in summer?

No. It is a winter property. Most of Niseko closes outside the ski season, and booking sites show those dates as sold out rather than saying the place is shut.

How far is Q FOX BLACK DIAMOND HOTEL from central Hirafu?

About 1.2 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.

Does Q FOX BLACK DIAMOND HOTEL have its own website?

Yes — qfox-japan.com. Booking direct is sometimes cheaper than through a platform, and the property's own site is the only place its policies are stated first-hand.

How much does Q FOX BLACK DIAMOND HOTEL 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 Q FOX BLACK DIAMOND HOTEL?

Its lowest published sub-score is cleanliness at 7.5, against 7.6 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.

Winter only — it does not take summer bookings

Booking sites show summer dates here as unavailable, which reads like a demand problem and is a season problem. If you are travelling outside the snow season, start elsewhere.
