Sekka Kan has been nominated for Japan's Best Ski Chalet at the 2026 World Ski Awards for the fifth time. Recognising excellence across the global ski travel industry, the World Ski Awards brings together the finest properties and experiences from around the world. To be among the nominees, five times over, reflects the trust our guests place in us with every stay.
This recognition belongs to every guest who has filled these floors, from solo travellers and groups of friends to multi-generational families who have made Sekka Kan their winter base in Niseko.
Meticulously renovated and set in the heart of Grand Hirafu, Sekka Kan is a self-contained private chalet within walking distance of Niseko's best restaurants, bars, and slopes. Spanning four generous floors, the eight ensuite bedrooms accommodate up to 18 guests, featuring multiple living rooms, fully equipped kitchens and dining areas, alongside dedicated ski storage with boot heaters. Sekka Kan gives everyone the freedom to gather or retreat entirely on their own terms. For quieter moments, an onsen-inspired bathtub on the private balcony offers views of Mt. Yotei, and a Yamaha Clavinova digital piano in the living area provides an unexpected touch of character.
If Sekka Kan has been one of those, we would be grateful for your vote. Voting is now open and closes on Friday, 9 October 2026.
