Giappone: hotel con palestra nella provincia di Hokkaidō

Our stay at Chalet Ivy Jozankei was truly memorable and one of the best luxury hotel experiences we have had in Japan. The hotel is beautifully designed, impeccably maintained, and the hospitality from most of the staff was exceptional. We were warmly welcomed by a lovely lady at reception (whose name I unfortunately did not catch), who shared that she personally grows the beautiful flowers displayed in the hotel's sitting area. That personal touch immediately made us feel at home. Mr. Tai, who checked us in, was friendly, patient, courteous and professional. He took the time to explain the room features and hotel facilities in detail, making us feel genuinely welcomed. The cleanliness deserves special recognition. I am particularly sensitive to cleanliness and usually notice dust very easily, yet I could not find a single speck of dirt anywhere in the room. It is honestly one of the cleanest hotels I have ever stayed in. The lounge was another highlight. Each guest received a ¥1,000 alcoholic drink credit, and the complimentary snacks featured premium Hokkaido brands such as LeTAO, Yoshimi and Ryugetsu, making the experience feel truly luxurious. Dinner was outstanding. Every course was beautifully presented and delicious, while the restaurant staff provided attentive and polished service. The hotel's tasteful interior perfectly complemented the stunning views of the lush greenery and Toyohira River. We were also delighted to find beautifully cut and chilled melon and strawberries waiting in our room upon arrival. It was a thoughtful welcome that reflected the hotel's exceptional attention to detail. Breakfast was equally impressive, with beautifully prepared dishes that made each morning enjoyable. The private onsen in our room was undoubtedly one of the highlights of our stay, allowing us to relax while enjoying the peaceful natural surroundings. While our overall experience was excellent, I have a few suggestions for improvement. One Japanese male staff member who was on duty during check-in and later that evening came across as rather cold. On several occasions, I smiled and greeted him, but he did not acknowledge me and simply walked away. The contrast with the warmth shown by the rest of the team was quite noticeable. As such a premium property, it would also be wonderful if the hotel could offer more cultural or wellness activities, such as tea appreciation sessions, guided evening walks or seasonal experiences. During a previous stay at Capella Singapore, these activities became some of the most memorable parts of our visit, and I believe Chalet Ivy Jozankei has the perfect setting to offer something similar. I would also like to suggest a different restaurant seating arrangement for tables of four. Currently, only two guests can enjoy the beautiful river and greenery views while the other two face the interior of the restaurant. Arranging the tables perpendicular to the windows would allow all four guests to enjoy the spectacular scenery during their meal. Lastly, although we appreciated receiving tickets to the Summer Night Illumination Festival, accessing the main street requires walking up a very steep slope that is shared with vehicles, which could be challenging and potentially unsafe for elderly guests. In the future, perhaps a pedestrian bridge connecting Level 5 directly to the street level could improve accessibility and safety. Overall, Chalet Ivy Jozankei delivered an exceptional luxury experience with outstanding cleanliness, thoughtful hospitality, remarkable cuisine and beautiful surroundings. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily return in the future. Thank you to the entire team for making our visit so memorable.

Il letto più confortevole che abbia mai avuto in un hotel. Abbiamo dormito molto bene durante il nostro soggiorno, il letto era enorme e incredibilmente comodo, con molte piastrelle e lenzuola di alta qualità. La stanza stessa era spaziale, tranquilla e molto ben pronta a suonare, con un sacco di spazio per la custodia dei bagagli e degli oggetti personali, oltre a molte attrezzature utili. L’intero hotel ha un design moderno, pulito e è mantenuto in ottima condizione. Il personale era molto gentile, professionale, parlava inglese, che rendeva tutto facile. Anche forniscono ombrelli gratis quando pioveva, che era un pensiero. Il bar dell'hotel merita anche una menzione. Il servizio era eccellente, le bevande erano molto buone e i perfetti erano deliziosi. Poiché i perfetti sono molto popolari localmente a Sapporo, sicuramente consiglio di provare uno qui. La posizione è anche conveniente: a pochi passi da Suskino e dal centro della città di Sapporo, vicino alla stazione a pochi metri distanziati, e facile da raggiungere con taxi. In generale, questo Marriott era una vera gioiello. A causa di una tale piacevole esperienza qui, in futuro mi occuperò di rimanere in altri hotel Marriott Courtyard.

Staff are remarkably friendly, well-trained, and consistently ready to assist. The breakfast buffet offers a wide and impressive variety of choices. While the room lighting is somewhat dim for reading or applying makeup—likely a deliberate design choice—the room features a pleasant view overlooking the brewery. Additionally, the mattress and pillows provide an exceptionally comfortable and relaxing stay.

Questo hotel aereo ci ha fatto saltare via. Era così comodo e altamente finito. Ci siamo accorti tardi e siamo andati presto, così purtroppo non potevamo provare le strutture. Tuttavia, ci hanno trattato bene e ci piacerebbe rimanere di nuovo qui. Importante notare, il primo motore aereo è stato scatenato prima di quanto ci aspettavamo e ci ha svegliati. Prepari a svegliarsi se il vostro volo è più tardi di quanto ci aspettavamo. Penso che sia stato scatenato al 8AM.

Exceptional Private Onsen & Hokkaido Flavors. Overall Impression: A perfect blend of convenience and cozy. Despite the bustling atmosphere and classic, dark decor, the private onsen and dining experience make this a standout choice in the area. Hightlights: The room: Spacious with beautiful wooden floors and a private outdoor onsen. Soaking in the heat while snow falls is pure magic. Features like the ”His&Her” sinks and an in-room massage chair make our stay more comfortable. All complimentary in the room adds a thoughful touch. Dining: The buffet offers and impressive variety of local dishes alongside beautifully plated mains. Even when busy, the staff sustematically managed the seating, ensuring we enjoyed the stunning winter views comfortably. The Hokkaido cheese pizza and dessert are absolute must-tries. Location and Service: Perfectly situated in the heart of the sightseeing district, with famous sweet shop right nearby. The complimentary valet parking and polight, perfessional staff made our stay seamless. Observations: Atmosphere: The common areas can feel a bit crowded due to its popularity. Design: The room interiors are a bit outdated and lean toward very dark tones, and notably, Netflix is not available on the in-room TV. Note: Windows are fixed; ventilation is managed via the onsen balcony door. Verdict: Highly recommended for foodies and onsen lovers who want to be the center of the action.

Best in class resort for design and hardware. Exceptional personal touch by managers and senior team. Terrific on-site dining options. Love the Italian, Chinese and Japanese restaurants. Ski in ski out. Beautiful indoor pool and jacuzzis. Equipped gym. Private onsens available in certain room types. Bit of a indoor bug infestation problem and general staff need more training, given hotel rate class. Otherwise the nearest to perfection stay in any ski resort anywhere in the world!

For us it is the second time in this wonderful hotel and every time it is like living a dream: it feels like being in a bubble thanks to all the well-being in which you are immersed. You are pampered by every service present and by the kindness of the staff, which makes you feel at home. The food is simply divine and you would just like to have a more spacious stomach so you could taste more and more. Nature is unsurpassed, every day you find yourself meeting spectacular creatures even just going out a short distance away. You will not find a similar place in all of Japan, where man meets nature in a perfect combination of balance, harmony and deep respect. We hope to be able to return a third time and relive this beautiful dream again. Thank you for everything Kitakobushi Shiretoko Hotel!

I had an enjoyable stay at Akan Yuku no Sato Tsuruga. The hotel offers a relaxing atmosphere and is a wonderful place to experience the beauty of Lake Akan. The service was excellent throughout my stay. The staff were warm, attentive, and professional, always greeting guests with a smile and making every interaction pleasant. Their hospitality really enhanced the overall experience. The onsen facilities were one of the highlights of the hotel. They are spacious, beautifully designed, and have a luxurious feel, offering a great variety of indoor and outdoor baths. The only minor drawback was that the top-floor outdoor bath did not appear to be as clean as the other baths. Overall, the onsen experience was still great. The room was a little on the compact side, but it was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. Overall, I had a great stay and Akan Yuku no Sato Tsuruga is a great choice in Lake Akan.

Le basi di ogni hotel cittadino: posizione, posizione, posizione...!!! E l'Hotel Stream si trova proprio nel cuore di tutto ciò che Sapporo ha da offrire, a meno che non preferiate un posto più tranquillo e silenzioso, nel qual caso questo hotel NON fa per voi. Le camere sono piuttosto standard in termini di dimensioni e servizi, è silenzioso ed è ottimo per passeggiare per la città. Se intendete usare questo hotel come base per escursioni giornaliere a Furano e Biei, alla Collina dei Moai del Buddha o alla famosa Otaru (che purtroppo non offre molto a meno che non siate appassionati sfegatati di carillon e lavorazione del vetro), questa è la SCELTA MIGLIORE fino all'apertura dell'Hyatt House nell'ottobre 2026 (me l'ha detto un uccellino - per i globalisti là fuori). Oh... un consiglio IMPORTANTE a proposito (se avete letto fino a questo punto): chiedete una camera con vista diretta sulla ruota panoramica di Sapporo (non che io ne sia una fan, eh!) o con vista sull'insegna pubblicitaria della Nikka che vedete nella foto allegata: ne vale la pena. È fantastico addormentarsi con una vista così mozzafiato e svegliarsi con la stessa vista... (guardate le foto scattate dalla mia camera). Nel caso vi stiate chiedendo se quella foto in cui sono vicino al vetro con vista sull'insegna della Nikka è ambientata nel ristorante principale dove farete colazione ogni giorno, ma dovete arrivare presto per prenotare un posto, altrimenti potete rimanere seduti fino alla chiusura e poi scattare foto per tutto il tempo che volete... Ok ok ok... lo so che mi sono dilungata un po'. Ma ehi... ah sì... dovete sapere che potete prendere un autobus navetta dall'aeroporto internazionale di Chitose (CTS) a Susukino, che impiega circa 50 minuti a tratta per 1500 JPY a persona. Facile e comodo. Dalla fermata dell'autobus di Susukino, dove la maggior parte delle persone scende, l'Hotel Stream è a soli 5 minuti a piedi. L'insegna non è poi così facile da trovare, perché non è proprio sull'edificio. Dovete cercare un edificio con la scritta ”Coco-qualcosa” (ops, ho dimenticato il nome dell'edificio) e la hall dell'hotel si trova al settimo piano di quell'edificio, che ospita anche un centro commerciale, un cinema e numerosi ristoranti. Se state ancora leggendo, lasciatemi un like e non siate avari con i clic, ok? Lol. Prossimamente recensirò i miei hotel a Noboribetsu, sul Lago Toya, a Hakodate e infine al Waldorf Astoria di Osaka. Fate attenzione alla mia barra spaziatrice. Alla prossima, vi auguro ogni bene e che la Forza sia con voi.

Super comfortable stay. Staff very helpful and friendly. excellent service throughout the stay. Complimentary bus is greatly appreciated. Highly recommended for those seeking for quiet leisure accomodation.
