Location is good. It is between JR Otaru station and the Otaru Canal. So it’s along the way. There is a shaded shopping street right next to the hotel.
The hotel has a public bath which is great. Enjoyed it very much.
Response from Property: Thank you for staying at our hotel.We appreciate your kind words about our facilities, including the baths. We look forward to welcoming you back to Otaru.

Simple hotel with sufficient amenities. Carpark was outside hotel. Not so convenient. We had to bring own luggage to our room. Staff not very helpful. Hotel is near to Family Mart and walking distance to shopping areas. Good location.

The hotel lobby is beautiful, the rooms are wonderful, and best of all for us, the staff was incredibly helpful. They all were exceptionally polite, were fluent in english, Also, the location of the hotel is excellent, just a short walk away from many restaurants and a 24-hour Lawson's convenience store. We were happy with our stay!

Hotel is easy to find although I need to walk around 15 min at slow pace from train station to the hotel.
Luckily, along the walk, there are roof shelters provide so that snow flakes does not cover the path during my walk.
Under these walking shelters, there are many food stalls and restaurants to have meal, beside having meals in the hotel.
Response from Property: Thank you very much for using our hotel.We will continue to pursue aiming for hotels that will be selected by many customers in the future.We sincerely look forward to your visit.

Very nice hotel, the lobby is big and nice, allow us to check in at 2 pm. There are some reception staff that can speak mandarin as well. We booked a room for 3 people with 3 single beds. The room is bigger than expected and the washroom is more spacious as compared to others I have stayed in before.
Pros is near the Otaru Canal, from the hotel just walk straight all the way will reach Otaru canal. Opposite the hotel there is a Lawson, convenient to buy stuff.
Cons is slightly far away from JR station and you will need to walk about 10 mins.
Response from Property: Thank you for your review and we are looking forward to seeing you here again on your next visit.

Only stayed for a night but it was really nice room.
The staffs at the hotel were very kind and there was also public bath.
The staff at the hotel helped us call the taxi and the path in front of the hotel was well cleaned even after heavy snow.
Highly recommend

Glad they have a 3 beds room, a bit old but not bad overall, staffs are nice. Public bath is a bit small and there's a queue for shower (first time~!), however, we do like their shampoo and conditioner. Car park is full all the time, but I parked in the nearby 24 hours car park which is even cheaper than the hotel one for overnight parking.
Response from Property: Thank you for choosing us this time. We appreciate your positive feedback. We look forward to serving you again.
