NEverything about the hotel is superb from room to buffet food offered, the Onsen pools and self service laundry facilities. They also have professional violin entertainment in the evenings. While the hospitality is unique with ladies in kimono bowing & greeting upon arrival & departure, the only odd thing, is no luggage assistance at all and we wonder how the elderly are able to cope.

A must: stop by at about 25km before the hotel to enjoy delicious, sweet & crunchy hot corns.

It is located near the Ainu village. There is only one main street selling souvenirs and a watson store. There is a path around lake Akan that you can stroll on. That is about 20 minutes walk from the hotel. The onsen on the eight floor was beautiful overlooking the lake akan, but i did not get to use it. They have funky system, odd days women use eight floor. The men use the basement onsen. On even day it’s reversed. The onsen on the basement is still good. The dinner and breakfast buffet are excellent.

It’s a bit of an unusual place. It is marketed as having a connection to the Ainu community. Perhaps in a similar way how casinos on Native American reservations are marketed. The place is sort of in the middle of nowhere. But it seems very popular domestically with large crowds present. The dining is buffet style and it can get pretty crowded. The food quality is pretty good though with a wide range of food including Japanese, Chinese, and Western. The onsen is split between the basement level and eight floor between men and women on alternating days. I only went to the basement level onsen (it also seems like guests at this hotel also has access to the onsen in the next door Wings hotel, which I didn’t go to either). The basement level onsen had sort of a dark cave theme, which differed from the two other onsens I’ve been to on this trip. I’m guessing the hotel was built in the 70s. My room was a bit dated. The bathroom had a bit of an old urine smell. The room had just about everything sort of like how the long term stay hotels in the US are like (refrigerator, dishware, etc), which I don’t find necessary. Overall I find it kind of had a Vegas vibe

Authentic Japanese onsen resort. Reserved Japanese Western Room with Premium Kaiseki Dinner. Room with lake view included 2 rooms, one for sitting and other for sleeping. Included private bathroom which was clean and modern. Given Japanese robe and lounge ware to wear to onsen. This was a huge and spectacular onsen covering 2 floors with indoor and outdoor baths. Enjoyed large breakfast buffet and gourmet private dining experience. Very elaborate and meticulous and delicious. The best Kaiseki dinner we had over the course is our one month travel in Japan. Also close to walking trails around the lake. Located within walking distance to everything. Would definitely stay here again.
