Hokkaidō, Giappone: hotel con terme

Il personale non cerca di nascondere il servizio ineguale offerto agli ospiti stranieri rispetto a quello dei locali. Le camere sono scarsamente isolate e si può sentire i vostri vicini e la camera sopra molto chiaramente, soprattutto le scale a piedi, che rendono difficile dormire.

It was a great experience and one of the best experience from customer service, food and accommodation. Customer service is 10 stars 🫡🌟

Benvenuto, molto amichevole personale di servizio ci dicendo direzione verso le porte di partenza e dove fare shopping e cena. Ottimo accesso alle porte di partenza, tutto sotto copertura e a pochi passi L'hotel ci ha fornito trolley per l'arrivo all'aeroporto, lasciandoci in pace. La TV set mostra lo stato di volo che ci aiuta a seguire con programmi particolarmente importanti quando ritorniamo a un paese prono a tifone. Spazio e pulizia con accesso complimentare a Onsen sono più apprezzati

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 Design: The room interiors are a bit outdated and lean toward very dark tones, and notably, Netflix is not available on the in-room TV.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.

I booked the hotel a few months ago so I could get a very good price for staying with OMO5. Very comfortable and energetic hotel, especially the common area was a place for relaxing and chill. They have a different set up during the day and at night. The highlight of this hotel is the free shuttle bus services, going around the city, and the paid shuttle service to go up the hill to see the sunset. You would be knowing how chaotic it could be up there so it’s good to have a shuttle bus bringing you up and down back to the hotel door. Also, the hotel offer free tours and I joined the free market walking tour and a bus tour to Onuma National Park. By staying one night, I could use the services before the check in and after the check out, so basically it covered 2 days activities when I was in Hakodate. it’s a super value offer, and I really feel this hotel group has thoughts from traveler’s perspective and try their best to give the best experience and to help reducing hassles for us. Definitely I will book with hotels under Hoshino Resort Group again. Thank you very much.

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, making the stay very comfortable from check-in to check-out. The location is excellent, only about a 3-minute walk from the tram station, which makes getting around very easy. There are also many restaurants nearby, so finding food is never a problem. The room was clean and well maintained, and the onsen was very nice and relaxing after a long day. Overall, a great stay and I would definitely recommend this hotel.

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!

Nessuna quantità di parole può esprimere come mi sento su questo resort. Il soggiorno includeva cena più colazione. Il bagno privato al giardino è così rilassante. Non devi preoccuparti di vedere altre persone e puoi andare a qualsiasi momento. Molto raccomandato per tutti i viaggiatori che vogliono massimizzare l'esperienza

Tabino Hotel Ishikari (旅之酒店石狩) is a relatively new hotel that opened in late 2025, and it quickly became one of my favorite stops during my Hokkaido trip. Located in Ishikari City, it’s about a 15–20 minute drive from central Sapporo areas like Hokkaido University or Odori Park, making it a smart choice for those who want easy access to the city without staying right in the busy downtown. One of the first things that struck me was the massive parking lot—it’s a spacious, flat, free parking area with plenty of spots, even for larger vehicles (though larger ones might need prior arrangement). No stress about circling for a space or paying extra fees, which is a huge plus for self-drive travelers in Hokkaido. The room felt pleasantly spacious compared to many budget or business hotels in Japan. I could fully open my suitcase, unpack comfortably, and still have plenty of room to move around. All rooms come equipped with handy in-room amenities like a washing machine, microwave, and fridge, which are great for longer stays or if you want to heat up snacks. The surroundings are remarkably quiet and peaceful, giving that relaxing escape-from-the-city vibe, especially at night. Yet, convenience is never compromised—there’s a 24-hour convenience store (like a 7-Eleven) just a 1-minute walk away, perfect for grabbing late-night snacks, drinks, breakfast items, or anything you need without driving. It’s such a thoughtful location balance. One of the biggest highlights is the on-site hot spring facility. The large public bath uses an artificial onsen inspired by Noboribetsu’s Shirakaba-no-Yu (white birch hot spring), with milky, smooth water that’s incredibly soothing after a day of driving or sightseeing. There’s also a sauna, making it easy to unwind and recharge right at the hotel—no need to hunt for external onsens. Cleanliness is top-notch throughout the property. Everything from the lobby and corridors to the rooms and bath areas felt spotless and well-maintained, with fresh linens and no lingering odors. It’s clear the staff takes pride in keeping the place immaculate. Overall, Tabino Hotel Ishikari offers excellent value: comfortable, feature-packed rooms, unbeatable parking convenience, that perfect mix of tranquility and nearby 24/7 shopping, plus the bonus of relaxing in the hot springs without leaving the hotel. It’s ideal for self-drive explorers, families, or anyone wanting a peaceful yet practical base near Sapporo. I’d definitely stay here again on future trips!

La stanza Tatami tradizionale ci ha davvero impressionati, ma l'accento del nostro soggiorno era il zolfo privato all'aperto nella nostra stanza. Era incredibilmente terapeutico, e mi piaceva assolutamente il bruciore naturale di zolfo che riempiva lo spazio, che ha reso l'esperienza autentica e profondamente rilassante. Un grido di cuore al personale per la loro ospitalità eccezionale, dal caldo benvenuto all’arrivo per aiutare con il bagaglio e preparare i nostri letti, tutti i dettagli sono stati trattati con cura. Sono stati gentili e attenti nel nostro soggiorno. Anche se l'hotel è molto vecchio, lo apprezzammo come parte del suo fascino vintage. Sembra un posto ricco di storia e storie, che aggiunge un carattere unico che spesso non si trova in hotel moderni. Il 7-course ikkaki cena ci ha completamente sbattuti. Da l'eccellente piastra al servizio impeccabile, ogni piatto rifletteva la dedizione e l'artigianato del cuoco. Anche il colazione superava le nostre aspettative, mentre, sebbene fosse stato descritto come un buffet, le belle offerte di stile bento, insieme ai piatti confortevoli di zuppa, erano soddisfacenti e deliziose. Sì, il prezzo è sul lato più alto, ma vale assolutamente ogni penny che abbiamo speso.
