Hospitality Crystalized in Hotel Park Hyatt Niseko Hanazono!

by Kazu

I could not help imagining how tough to clean up the shelves and displays in the hotel every day. It must require many staff but the famous Hyatt Group may have the special way to clean up every nook and cranny in the building. 

Some special air cleaner may be working around the clock in the hotel to take away the dust and odor. Cleaning up the walls and windows outside must be tougher than inside. The hotel never discourage the guests. 

I really admire the well-organized system to welcome the guests and the nature. The collaboration of the nature and the artificial building, art works and hospitality work wonder in this area.  

 

The Display of Hospitality in Park Hyatt Niseko Hanazono !

We love the subtle expression of their hospitality in Hotel Park Hyatt Niseko Hanazono. A pale pink flower of carnation was welcoming the guests at each table in the lounge of the hotel.

It may be tough to arrange such small but heartfelt display. In a sense, the taste of Japanese, not so gorgeous but so sophisticated and striking the chord of the guests, was expressed here and there in the hotel.

The art works on the wall also seemed to be giving the guests relaxation and even inviting the guests to meditation, I thought. They may cost a lot but absolutely create the world of comfort.

 

Hotel Park Hyatt Niseko Hanazono 2026 !

I could see very few guests in Hotel Park Hyatt Niseko Hanazono on that day. Between the ski season and green season, the number of the total tourists to Hokkaido decrease every year. The calm lounge in the hotel might be the best place for the tourists.

The lift in front of the hotel did not seem to be moving but the upper area of Mt. Niseko Annupri still provided the white snow field for the snowboarders and skiers on the opposite side of the mountain.

April 29(Wed.), 2026 was the holiday of Showa Era, the birthday of Showa Emperor of Japan. It was not the weekend. The trucks that carried rafting boats could be seen on the road and some people were enjoying the zip line in front of the hotel. The attraction in this season may be limited. 

 

Specialty of China Kitchen, Park Hyatt Niseko Hanazono 2026 !

Hotel Nikko Niseko Style could be seen from the window of China Kitchen in Hotel Park Hyatt Niseko Hanazono. The white crown of  Mt. Yotei also could be seen over the hillside of Mt. Niseko Annupri.  

My wife's favorite wonton noodle soup was the last dish before the dessert on that day. The moderately flavored soup was so kind and balanced for our stomach and guts, I thought. 

The dessert dishes were mango pudding and sweet black beans paste. It had been five months since we had the dim sum lunch in the restaurant. A little bit amendment on the menu was conducted but we are really satisfied with the taste and quality of each dish. 

 

China Kitchen of Park Hyatt Niseko Hanazono 2026 !

We visited Hotel Park Hyatt Niseko Hanazono for the first time this year and had dim sum lunch in China Kitchen of the hotel. The lunch buffet menu was amended a little bit. My wife regretted that sweet mini tomatoes had gone though it was my wife's favorite dish.

Dumplings' variety was almost the same as last year but they were served from the cart the staff lugged around. As I adjusted the amount of the breakfast on that day, I could savor almost all kinds of dishes with my wife on that day. 

The fried rice seemed to be made with Indica rice that is longer than Japonica rice and not so sticky as Japonica. It may be better to make fried rice than Japonica. Dan Dan Mien, Szechuan hot and spicy noodle soup was my favorite taste and the best to wrap up the feast. 

 

Makkari Shrine 2026 !

by Kazu

At the beginning of the green season of tourism in Hokkaido, the mountains were still crowned with white snow and drape. The trekkers should be equipped amply with the necessary gears and clothes. As my norm said,"Cotton kills." 

The avalanches on the surface of the Mt. Yotei's hillside swallowed some lives in winter. Back-country skiing is popular, in particular, for the skiers from overseas. Though they need the skilled local guides, they want to explore by themselves.    

We worshiped Makkari Shrine for the first time. One Shinto priest and a staff were working in the building. They were not living in the sacred building and commute from their own houses to take care of the alter and premises. 

 

Cherry Blossoms Blooming !

Have you ever heard of "Kishimen" noodle soup rooted in the central part of Japan such as Nagoya City and adjacent prefecture of Japan? In the famous and popular bar-hopping area of Sapporo called "Susukino", there is a hole-in-the-wall "Kishimen" Bar.

On our way to the hot spring spa "Toukakyou" in Jasmac Plaza Hotel of Susukino district, we dropped by the noodle soup bar on that day. Beautiful cherry blossoms were blooming around Sapporo Central Whole Sale Market and Sapporo Central Horse Race Stadium.

A variety of colors created by cherry blossoms blooming without green leaves gave special pure impression to the scenery and our lives. We may have to thank enough God and our ancestors for getting over the cold winter.
