Chitose Hotels with Breakfast

Brand new hotel with good breakfast.  Everything is new.  However, rooms are small and toilet can’t fit those with huge bodies.  Hot spring restriction to gender by dates also not ideal.  Otherwise it is a great hotel with super good location.  Photos show view from 13th floor.

It’s very near to the chitose JR station, about less than 1 minutes walk. The breakfast is good though not much selection but tasty. Service staff is average as they didn’t share with us that we can choose another pillow but we knew it from other reviewers in trip, also didn’t share with us the lady public bath passcode. So I give service an average score. But still a good choice if you need to catch early flight for a night stay.

Staying here for one night with two meals, featuring Kaiseki cuisine, is a perfect short escape for those who love natural hot springs. My skin felt incredibly smooth for days after soaking! Having a room with a private open-air bath on the balcony was super convenient, though the public baths are also great. In the evening, you can relax in the lounge with complimentary fruit, red wine, or tea. The next morning, I loved getting up early to enjoy a hot tea on the reading room's balcony, watching the gentle dawn light.

Lake Shikotsu is the northernmost ice-free lake in Japan. It has a charming view. The area of the lake is more than ten times the size of West Lake in our country. It is surrounded by four large mountains and surrounded by virgin forests. There are not as many tourist groups as Lake Toya. It is atmospheric, quiet and beautiful. . It coincides with the opening of Lake Shikotsu Ice Sculpture Festival, 300 yen per person, three minutes walk, worth visiting at night. From the north gate of Sapporo Station, there is a white, blue and green wing bus that can pick you up to the hotel for a fee. The Italian cuisine for dinner is more delicious than I thought. There are eight hotels in total, and each family can reserve two outdoor baths for one hour each. As a hot spring hotel, the full suit of the waiter is a little weird. In fact, the restaurant owner changed his job to provide hotel services. The details are still different from the old hot spring hotel, and they are not listed one by one. A reminder, don’t live in Marukoma at Lake Shikotsu. It’s just a lonely hotel on the westernmost bank. There are dozens of Chinese tourists who flew out during the wing pick-up. There are no Japanese! There are densely packed hotels on the east bank, as well as the Ice Sculpture Festival, the cruise ship dock and the hot spring street to stroll around. If the weather is good, you can enjoy the sunset. To sum up, if Cuiming Pavilion can book the only lake-view hot spring room, it is worth it. If you can't book it, then consider Song of Water. I don't think it is cost-effective near 4k here.

I arrived very early after taking an overnight flight. I asked the front desk if it was possible to check in earlier and mentioned that I was willing to pay an additional fee if needed. However, the front desk staff repeatedly told me that early check-in was not possible, and the tone was not very friendly. As a result, I had to wait until 3 p.m. while feeling very tired. The hotel room itself was clean and tidy, and all the necessary amenities were provided. I also had a very comfortable sleep that night.

This Hotel is The Best Hotel I've stayed in on my trip to Japan. Located in Chitose, it's meters away from Great Food, Aeon Shopping Mall, Lawsons and JR Station. The staff were EXECEPTIONAL! The Breakfast and Onsen were exactly what was needed for the two days. I will be back on my return trip in the near future 🙌 10/10 for service, cleanliness and professionalism

The hotel boasts an excellent location, within walking distance of major attractions. Although the room is small, its modern minimalist design is thoughtfully laid out, maximizing space and making movement easy. A nice touch is the provision of two-piece pajamas for guests. The buffet for both dinner and breakfast offers a wide variety of delicious options. Overall, a comfortable and well-designed stay with great dining choices.

The onsen is great! There is also a ”hidden” spring which I enjoyed soaking into. It is quite unreachable via public transport. They do have scheduled pick-ups and drop-offs at Shikotsuko bus terminal (via reservation). If you did not book dinner or breakfast, be sure to buy food before going, as there aren't many options. Since it is a very traditional ryokan, there are no showers in the rooms (at least in the one I had). You must take a bath in the onsen. I emjoyed my one-night stay here.

The hotel is about a ten-minute walk from JR Chitose Station, with a convenience store right across the street, which is very handy. The hotel breakfast offers a good variety of choices, though it's not included in the room rate. There's also an airport shuttle service, which is very punctual; you just need to be in the lobby five minutes beforehand. Overall, I had a pretty good experience.

The room had a large heater, so it was super warm inside. The space was decent, with a sofa, a coffee table, and a desk against the wall. Breakfast was pretty good and quite refined. It's very close to the JR station. The breakfast area turns into an izakaya at night. Sometimes, though, it's closed, and you have to find another place to eat. The front desk staff can speak English. If you have any questions, you can email them in advance.
