Tucked away in Myoko, only a two-hour drive from Niigata Airport or just over 90 minutes by bullet train from Tokyo, Arai is blessed with an average snowfall of 15 metres each season; more than the much-frequented Niseko and with less of the queuing. This impressive resort is home to a blizzard of top facilities, including Japanese, Italian and western dining, a lounge with a cosy fireplace to relax next to after a day on the slopes, a fun karaoke bar, a serene onsen for languid soaks and a lavish indoor and outdoor swimming pool.
