Guaranteed stay at Hoshino Resorts, find the ultimate beauty of the North in the Kingdom of Ice

The mysterious scenery of ice and nature unfolds, and we walk into the Hoshino Resort located in the northern mountains. The endless snow-white extreme landscape and the rich ice sculpture wonders make you feel like you are in a strange ice kingdom. After enjoying the ice, drive away the chill in the open-air ice bath surrounded by birch forests, and enjoy the hot springs drawn from the Yunosawa Onsen in Shimukappu Village, which will take care of your body and mind. In addition to the body, the taste buds should also be properly cherished. Invite you to enjoy the no-menu cuisine of the Hoshino Italian chef, a food calendar woven from the rich ingredients of Hokkaido, carefully selecting the best ingredients of each season, and taste Hokkaido itself with your five senses, dancing and coexisting with the local area in every bite of ingredients.

Enjoy two fantastic snow festivals in Japan at once and welcome the silver earth

When talking about winter in the north, you can't miss the "Sapporo Snow Festival" and the "Chitose Shikotsu Lake Ice Festival". Go to the Sapporo Snow Festival to enjoy the grand festival that mobilizes the entire city. Exquisite snow sculptures and ice sculptures can be seen in every corner of the city. In the silver-white luster, it draws a perfect end to this winter and welcomes the spring of next year. The Chitose Shikotsu Lake Ice Festival takes you to enjoy the natural blue color called Shikotsu Lake Blue during the day and colorful lights at night. The blue and white icicles remind us that time flies, and we should seize it and create beautiful memories. (Limited time group, limited seats, welcome to sign up)
