Grids Premium Hotel Otaru ★★★★

📍 1-3-13 Inaho, Otaru

"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. We are a family of 2 adults and 2 children, and the room was perfect for us. The room had 4 beds and windows, which made it spacious, bright, and comfortable. The hotel is in a very good location, making it convenient to get around and visit nearby attractions. The beds were comfortable, and the room was clean and cozy. We especially enjoyed the bathtub. It was a great way to relax after a long day, and our children loved it as well. Overall, we really liked this hotel and had a pleasant stay. We would definitely recommend it to families looking for a comfortable hotel in a good location."

"This hotel is impressive, with great location (just opposite JR otaru station) and awesome onsen. The onsen is amazing. Indoor, there's a sauna, 2 hot pools and 1 cold pool. There are 2 additional hot pools outdoor. If you have a tattoo, you can ask the reception for tattoo stickers. The view is also beautiful. Will stay in this hotel again if i ever come back to otaru."

"Google Maps took us to a different, impassable route. There were no staff to assist with luggage when getting in and out of the car during heavy snowfall. Having large suitcases would be quite difficult. The hotel entrance was only slightly cleared of snow, making it hard to drag luggage. However, the room was large and spacious with a great view."

Guesthouse Otaru Wanokaze Hotels in Otaru

Guesthouse Otaru Wanokaze

"I booked two nights, the price is less than 200 per night, and the Otaru Hotel during the Snow Festival is more than 800+, so I chose a warm youth hostel. The person in charge is an old lady. You will find her humor and enthusiasm when you communicate with her. If there is no one at the front desk, you can ring the bell. You need to leave the key at the front desk when you check out. The second floor can be connected to the bathhouse on the first floor (I didn’t go because it seems to be an independent business bathhouse, and my roommate likes to go there); If you are assigned to a double room as shown in the picture, you are lucky because you will live very comfortably. My roommate is of the same country and the same sex, and we chatted like friends; If you are assigned to a quadruple room, then you will experience a rich youth hostel life. The roommates are men and women from all over the world. It is easy to communicate in a narrow environment. Everyone is very quiet and you don’t have to worry about your sleep problem. But there is indeed a smell that is not like 🦶 air for two days. I can’t tell the difference. There is a burning thing in the room (it seems to be an air purifier) ​​that can solve this smell. The interesting thing about this youth hostel is that it is like a blind box. You don’t know what you will encounter."

"There were three needles in the new toilet paper package. The front desk staff kept saying they didn't know what happened. I told him to investigate and give me an answer the next day. The next day, he just said he didn't know what happened and gave a perfunctory answer."

"I bought a 60-square-meter room. I estimated that the upper and lower floors were about 40 square meters. I don't know how the usable area of ​​hotels in Japan is calculated."

Winkel Village Hotels in Otaru

Winkel Village

"I booked the most expensive room, which cost over JPY80,500 per night. It had an open-air bath, but the bathtub was too small and the water was not hot, so I didn’t know how to use it. The entire house has two floors of usable space, and it is claimed to accommodate up to 7 people, but in fact the house is very small, with a total practical space of less than 50 square meters on the two floors, and there are only two toilets and one bathroom. There were 6 adults in total, and it was completely insufficient. We had to drive to a nearby large bathhouse to take a bath. In addition, the attitude of the waiters in this hotel is extremely bad. They always communicate via email in Japanese. When I reply to them in English, I only receive responses in Japanese. It feels like they are just trying to make money and have always made things difficult for customers with their service, which affected my holiday mood during my precious trip."

"The room was spacious and clean, but since I chose a canal-side room, it faced a large road and the truck noise was quite bothersome. On top of that, I could easily hear sounds from the hallway."

Dormy Inn Premium Otaru Natural Hot Spring(Reopening on August 1, 2026) ★★★★
"Considering it's right across from the station, the outdoor hot spring area is surprisingly well-designed to create a sense of tranquility amidst the bustling surroundings – it's a really nice touch. The breakfast, especially with its Hokkaido-style seafood, is exceptional. You can literally have as much salmon roe and salmon as you want! Plus, the nearby supermarket is very budget-friendly and offers incredible value for money. Highly recommend."
