Beach Hotels in Hokkaido, Japan

The breakfast was terrible, like pre-made meals. There was hardly any decent food, and it was exactly the same for two days straight, with no changes to the dishes at all. The Wi-Fi was extremely unstable, constantly losing signal and speed. The room felt old and was cramped for two people. It was stuffy; even with the AC off, it was hot, and I woke up every morning with a damp back. There weren't many power outlets, and their placement was inconvenient, making charging a hassle.

It was a wonderful experience. I was so excited before arriving and still savoring it after returning. I booked a stay with two meals and enjoyed the hot springs three times a day. The ancient Showa atmosphere, mingled with the sea breeze from the Tsugaru Strait, was a highlight of my trip to Hakodate.

About 10-15mins driving distance from the city center. Parking is located next to it (around 2mins walking distance) where u have to walk through an alley to hotel main door. Perhaps they can install a street light in the alley way or a back door near to parking lots coz it is quite dark and scary to walk alone. Breakfast is lack of variety but acceptable. Other than these, overall is satisfied.

Very good, nice people, great view, nice room! It is recommended to book two nights to relax! The most amazing thing is opening the balcony door! From that moment on, you feel that taking a taxi is really worth it.

The food was delicious and there was a good variety, so I was very satisfied! It was cold in November, so I wish I had brought a haori coat! I had a great time!

I absolutely loved this hot spring hotel; it's the kind of place you'll never want to leave. Breakfast and dinner were served as a semi-buffet, with ingredients that truly showcased the hotel's unique character. The freshly squeezed juices, cherry tomatoes, sweet soup, and coffee regularly prepared in the lobby were all thoughtfully curated, and enjoying them from a seat with a view made the experience even better. The room was just as delightful, featuring a rocking chair and a lounge mat, perfect for watching the Pacific Ocean and sipping tea – absolutely blissful. The hotel's hot springs were beautiful, and the water quality was excellent. The outdoor baths also boasted stunning views, allowing you to watch the sea, stars, and seagulls, feeling truly at one with nature. There's also a foot bath and a 'happiness bell'. The hotel's two generations of resident dogs were also very beautiful and friendly.

For our wedding anniversary, we've been staying in Hakodate for a few nights annually since last year. This year, our trip coincided with the fireworks festival, so we specifically booked this hotel, hoping to be near the launch site, and we had an absolutely wonderful stay. Although our room also offered a good view, the lovely evening breeze enticed us to enjoy the beautiful fireworks from outside. We are also very grateful for the thoughtful attentiveness from the front desk staff. The food is consistently delicious and satisfying. We certainly hope to stay here again.

Tomamu Hoshino Resort – I have to say, it's pretty impressive all around! 🌟 Before it got dark, we explored the farm, petted cows 🐄 and sheep 🐑, climbed hay bales, and relaxed on hay sofas 🌾. In the evening, we went to Minamina Beach 🏖️ and then to the open-air forest hot spring ♨️, which genuinely smelled of rich wood. After that, we timed our visit to Tadao Ando's Church on the Water ✝️, listening to the chorus of frogs 🐸. First thing the next morning, we took the cable car up the mountain to see the sea of clouds (or rather, mist) ☁️. The beds made of hay were so warm and comfortable! 🐄 The French toast with Hokkaido cream at the Forest Restaurant Nininupuri was absolutely delicious 😋 – the best French toast ever! Transportation is a bit inconvenient; you transfer once from the airport to Tomamu Station via JR, and then there's a shuttle bus to the hotel. But remember, to get from the hotel to the JR station, you MUST book in advance. It's not on the regular timetable, and it doesn't stop at every station!

I stayed here when I went to Hakodate for a live show. It was about a 10-minute walk from Hakodate Arena, it has a hot spring, a hotel with an ocean view, and there is a 24-hour Hasegawa store within walking distance, and it was a great choice. The sunlight pours in through the large windows, so even though it is late January in the middle of winter, you don't have to turn on the heater. You can relax with the sound of the ocean in the background. The open-air bath is like an infinity pool, and the ocean is right in front of you, so you can stay in it forever. The bus to Hakodate Station leaves almost right in front, there is a convenience store nearby, and the 24-hour Hasegawa store is just a short walk away, so it is very convenient. There is no need to rush to get on public transportation after the arena live show, you can drink at a nearby izakaya until the sun sets and then go home, and the front desk is open 24 hours a day, so it was reassuring. Whenever I go to Hakodate, I always stay around Hakodate Station, but this was such a great encounter that I think I will stay at this hotel in the future!
