Higashikawa Hotels with Wifi

"The room layout was a bit odd, with a partition in the middle, which I wasn't entirely happy with. For dinner, we had French cuisine. I saw reviews on Xiaohongshu saying it wasn't good, and while it wasn't amazing, it wasn't bad either. Breakfast options were also limited. The outdoor hot spring was a bit cold, but the scenery was nice. The best thing about this hotel is definitely the view; it feels like an 'Overlook Hotel' from a snowy mountain, and the atmosphere is really great."

"The house is beautiful and big."

"The hotel is right next to Arashidake Ropeway Station so it’s very convenient. The room is very spacious with large living and sleeping areas. Lounge area on 2/F is very quiet and comfortable for chill out. The only downsides are WiFi reception in our room is not good, and the outdoor hot spring was not available (only cold bath) so it was a little disappointing. But overall the staff, room and food were all excellent, this hotel is good for hikers to Arashidake for multiple days, or a workcation at quiet rural Japan."

"This hotel is located about 1km before the Asahidake Ropeway. It's a bit hard to get to without a car, but we took bus number 66 from Asahikawa Station Bus Terminal, stop 9. Being in a remote mountain area, there are no convenience stores. The lobby on the first floor sells simple snacks and beer, but I recommend buying these in advance from the city. The hotel has an old mountain lodge feel (it’s a place with history and tradition, apparently over 100 years old). It seems they have some kind of agreement with Switzerland. It looks like it was recently renovated and expanded, with a main building and an annex. The first-floor lobby has a restaurant for breakfast and dinner, a cafeteria exclusively for guests (with unlimited water, tea, and coffee), a lounge area with a fireplace, and hot springs. The staff are, of course, incredibly friendly. We stayed in the main building, and the room was quite spacious and comfortable. The room only has a sink for washing hands and a toilet. There's a safe, a toilet with a state-of-the-art bidet, and a large window that can be opened for ventilation. Unfortunately, the wall-mounted TV isn't a smart TV. There's a hairdryer, refrigerator, table, and desk, and the bed is quite large and comfortable. There are a total of three themed hot springs. The annex has an outdoor hot spring called 'Annex Jang,' which has one outdoor bath and two indoor baths, for a total of three baths. It's available from 7 AM, excluding cleaning time until noon. The outdoor bath is less than 3 pyeong (about 100 sq ft), but it was snowing at the time, so I enjoyed a warm soak. The main building has the Yukoman and Shikoro baths. Yukoman has about three baths, and Shikoro has six, with different water colors and temperatures, allowing you to move around and try them all. Shikoro, in particular, has large moss-covered rocks within the baths, with the interior designed to replicate that natural environment, making you feel like you're soaking in nature. These baths are cleaned from 9 AM to 3 PM, and the male and female baths swap between 8:45 PM and 9 PM. This hotel was satisfying just for its dinner and breakfast. The Japanese course meals, made with ingredients produced in Hokkaido, were a delightful experience, allowing us to taste the natural flavors of the ingredients. I particularly enjoyed looking up the ingredients on the timetable and savoring them. It was even better that the female server explained everything kindly in English. I want to visit again next season. It was a wonderful one-night stay."

"Not your normal hostel - a great place to stay. The staff are friendly and were very helpful. Spacious kitchen and shared area. Very clean in every area. Lovely Onsen after being in the mountain. Best to bring your own food although they do have a small shop to buy supplies. Near to the tourist information centre to hire snow shoes, boots, cross country skis etc."

"Private accommodation is far from other homes. Inside is equipped with complete facilities."

"Nice little conducive place Check in process via tablet at entrance 2 bed rooms with 4 beds Fridge, Dishwasher, Kitchen and Washing Machine Available Walls decorated with cutesy animals Different bins for sorting of waste provided Netflix and youtube available Near Asahiyama Zoo around 15 mins drive Parking is available for free too Cosy house 7-11 right around corner Enjoyed the stay overall Need to take note no lifts available if have heavy luggage"

"It was a difficult location to go without a car, but it is recommended for those who want to stay quietly and leisurely. The stars looked beautiful at night. Also, the shop staff was very kind and introduced me to the recommended shop for dinner. It was actually very delicious."

"The calm surrounding scenery, the friendly staff, and the simple yet luxurious and neat rooms were all very good. It felt like I was in a Japanese drama. It's a really good place to stay after climbing Asahi-dake. However, it seems difficult to access without a car, so I wonder if you can get there by public transportation. I highly recommend it."
