HOSHINO RESORTS TOMAMU
Hokkaido
The mountain
Tomamu is located in Hokkaido prefecture which is the north north island of Japan and is the closest full service resort from the airport. Behind the hotel is a snow covered mountain with a 150 hectare skiable area. For those with families, Tomamu is perfect for a family snow holiday in Japan. The kids ski school and kids only area create a relaxed environment for kids to learn & play. English ski and snowboard lessons are available and there are many snow activities even for non-skiers. There are expert only powder areas which you can enter by a simple registration at the Resort Centre, CAT tours & various backcountry tours operated from Tomamu. The majority of guests are families and beginners in Tomamu so the expert only powder areas doesn’t get as crowded as other mountains..
Where to stay
Hoshino Resorts Tomamu operates two full service ski in & out hotels Tomamu The Tower & Risonare Tomamu. The rooms at Tomamu The Tower are open plan and Risonare Tomamu has a choice of one or two bedroom suites with seperate living rooms & spacious bathrooms with spa. In comparison space wise the family quad room at Tomamu The Tower is 58 sqm and at Risonare Tomamu it is 120 sqm. Both Hoshino Resorts Tomamu hotels offer a big range of dining options. The option and Risonare are a bit more upmarket than The Tower. It is also advisable to plan and book your dining even before you arrive.
The Location
The best & easiest travel option is fly into Sapporo (New Chitose Airport) and catch the ski bus, which takes 2 hours to Tomamu. If you are catching trains, there is actually a train station called “Tomamu”. The hotel runs free shuttle bus connecting to your train arrival & departure time. We will help plan your transfers as part of our service. Only 90 minutes after your departure from New Chitose Airport, you'll be checking in after being picked up from Tomamu train station.

This was our second time to the Hoshino Risonare Resort in Tomamu and it was even better than before. We highly recommend the Risonare and Tomamu generally. The accommodation is spacious for a family, the staff are so accommodating, the ski rental equipment and staff are amazing and it is a true ski in/ski out location on a green run not far from the chair lift. Tomamu offers many restaurant/food choices within easy walking of the Risonare. Our children loved the Forest restaurant while the adults loved visiting Hotalu Street.
We have travelled in mid January both times and the snow/skiing has been excellent both times. The ski runs are relatively empty and the queues are non-existent, except when there are ski school groups. We do not understand where everyone is! Maybe it is not a popular resort for Australian tourists who tend to head to Niseko, as there is next to no night life in Tomamu, but it makes for the best, uncrowded skiing ever.
Turning to Japan Snow Accommodatin, they made the booking of this trip so easy. They were accommodating with my many requests in relation to travel dates, and were across everything from the hotel booking and transfer booking. I cannot recommend them and Hisae Cameron highly enough, they were excellent!

Our family of 4 stayed at Hoshino Tomamu Risonare resort for 6 nights over January… and it was amazing to say the least! It was our kids’ (9,7) first time at the snow and I couldn’t fault the resort as it ticked all the boxes. The rooms were massive, food was plentiful and excellent, price was reasonable, it was conveniently linked via an internal tunnel walk way making it super family friendly, the ski instructors were patient and friendly and the weather was perfect (at least for 5 of the 6 nights we were there). Hisae was super helpful and responsive in answer any last minute questions prior and during the trip! The only thing I could fault is that for more advanced skiers, they may run out of the more challenging slopes, however that was not an issue for us Thanks for the super recommendation, and we will definitely be heading back soon!
