This was the best hotel experience in our Hokkaido trip! Service was top-notched and the staff was treated you with genuine care, give us home feelings and very patient even if we can’t speak Japanese. Food was freshly and delicious prepared in course for both dinner and breakfast. Private onsen is well-maintained. Definitely will stay again!

높은 가격만큼 최상의 서비스와 최고의 음식이 나옵니다. 그만큼 조용하고 안락하게 휴식을 즐길 수 있으며, 직원들의 친절도는 최고입니다. 이 이상의 정통료칸은 있을수가 없을 정도 입니다.
