Hokkaido Lake Toya Onsen Hotel ♨️ Naonofu, a hot spring hotel overlooking snow-capped mountains and lakes.

Lake Toya's winter is truly beautiful, Agreed with family to come back again in the future, next time we will choose to drive ourselves and fully experience this place. . All rooms have a view of the snowy mountains 🏔️ and lakes as soon as you open your eyes, 5 years ago, I stayed here in the spring. This time, it's my second visit to the Nai Zhi Feng Hot Spring Hotel (couldn't book the other ones I wanted, such as the Wei Hotel and the Lake Residence). . About the hotel: 1. The floor-to-ceiling glass in the lobby also offers a view of the snow-capped mountain (Mount Yotei), which is great for taking photos. 2. Private hot spring can be reserved in advance with the hotel for a 50-minute session (3,300 yen). 3rd and 9th floors are public hot springs, separated by gender, with indoor pools and an open-air wind corridor on the top floor. The outdoor hot springs offer unobstructed views of the beautiful scenery, and even in the midst of ice and snow, soaking in the hot springs will not feel cold. 4. The room includes breakfast and dinner, both in buffet style. Overall, the food is decent with options such as sashimi, sushi, steak, tempura, salad, fruits, and drinks. Considering the cost is shared among the room rate, the value for money is good. 5. Hotel prices vary by season 💰, with winter being peak season. 6. Hotel guests can book a bus to New Chitose Airport or JR Sapporo Station at their own expense. . Transportation: Driving from Chitose Airport to Naizofu takes about 1 hour and 40 minutes. From Toyako JR Station, it takes about 20 minutes by taxi to reach Naizono Kaze. . Recommended activities: Take a castle-shaped sightseeing boat to admire the beautiful scenery of Lake Toya on the water. From the observation deck at Lake Toya, you can take in the panoramic view of the entire lake from a high vantage point. . Recently there is also a winter fireworks festival, from February 3rd to February 12th. Starts at 8:30 every night and lasts for 5 minutes. This is my first time watching fireworks in the snowy landscape with sub-zero temperatures in winter, super romantic. . 📷: Fujifilm XS10 .
