【2026/27 Season Notice】

For the 2026/27 winter season, accommodation bookings and restaurant services at Black Diamond Lodge will be unavailable for general travelers.

At the same time, we are currently working on an exciting new project at a separate location for future seasons. As this new project is still in the preparation phase, reservations are not yet available at this time.

Our backcountry touring and outdoor operations will continue to run as usual.

Thank you so much to everyone who visited and supported Black Diamond Lodge over the years. We truly appreciate all the great memories and are excited for what’s ahead.

Black Diamond Lodge is renowned as the powder hunters lodge in Niseko, Japan. For nearly two decades, we have been honored to call ourselves home to powder nomads from across the globe.

The lodge provides a casual atmosphere with a mix of Japanese tatami rooms, western style rooms, and dorm accommodations making it perfect for varying group sizes and budgets. The friendly staff is comprised of skiers and snowboarders who love Japan for the endless powder days; they are quick on suggesting the best resorts and touring areas around. The restaurant serves up a rotating menu of both traditional Japanese dishes and western fare.

Located a short distance from the base of Niseko Village resort, Black Diamond Lodge is one of the only lodges in Niseko Village to offer a ski-to-your-door experience. We also offer special last minute discount rates for backcountry tours, heli skiing, and cat skiing from our partner companies, Black Diamond Tours and Hokkaido Backcountry Club.

No matter what your budget or preference is, from doing it on your own, to fully guided and catered adventures when you check in at the Black Diamond Lodge you can expect to find a place that feels like home. And with access to our partner brands: Black Diamond Tours, Hokkaido Backcountry Club, Snowsports Japan, and and backcountry ski and snowboard rentals from Niseko Basecamp, we can help you put together the trip of a lifetime. We are the only choice for serious powder travelers in Hokkaido.
