StubbZee 0 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Im travelling to Niseko at the end of November with a friend who has already got an instructers position that comes with staff accommodation. I've looked all over the net for work and somewhere to stay for myself but not found a great deal. Any suggestions, help, information etc... would be very much appreciated. Thanks =) Link to post Share on other sites
Phantom Raspberry Blower 0 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Have you looked for more than 1 minute? How about all this lot http://www.snowjapan.com/e/hotel/niseko-hokkaido-accommodation.html Link to post Share on other sites
StubbZee 0 Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 Thanks for replying =) I had a look on this website and it would cost a fortune to stay in any of these places from Dec-Mar. (The hostel isn't much cheaper than some of the BnB's) Link to post Share on other sites
yoroshiku onegai shimasu 2 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Would it not cost "a fortune" to stay anywhere for 4 months?! Link to post Share on other sites

Go Native 70 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 You'd really struggle to get a position now at any of the companies unless some staff have pulled out last minute. I would suggest calling around all the main employers in town to see if there is anything available. To be honest with the effects of the economic downturn I doubt many companies would be looking to put on any extra staff. Link to post Share on other sites

sportjunkie 0 Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Hey StubbZee, I have the same problem, except that I don't really look for work. I'll fly to Tokyo next Tuesday and go to Sapporo on the 25th. Then I will spend most of my time trying to find a room in a house/flat. I hope to stay in Niseko until end of April'09. When will you be in Niseko? We may can search together. Link to post Share on other sites

jessta 0 Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 I think there is still some accommodation at one of the staff dorms in Hirafu. They're also looking for a cook if you've done that before. Link to post Share on other sites
