Excellent stay. The hotel is very peaceful and the staff is very professional. Food is stunning. If you have the budget don’t hesitate to book the room with private onsen!

The traditional tatami room truly impressed us, but the highlight of our stay was the open-air private sulphur onsen in our room. It was incredibly therapeutic, and I absolutely loved the natural sulphur scent that filled the space—it made the experience feel authentic and deeply relaxing. A heartfelt shoutout to the staff for their exceptional hospitality. From the warm welcome upon arrival to assisting with our luggage and thoughtfully preparing our beds, every detail was handled with care. They were genuinely kind and attentive throughout our stay. Although the hotel is quite old, we appreciated it as part of its vintage charm. It feels like a place rich with history and stories, which adds a unique character you don’t often find in modern hotels. The 7-course kaiseki dinner completely blew us away. From the exquisite plating to the impeccable service, every dish reflected the chef’s dedication and craftsmanship. Even breakfast exceeded our expectations. While described as a buffet, the beautifully presented bento-style offerings along with the comforting soup-based dishes were both satisfying and delicious. Yes, the price is on the higher side, but it is absolutely worth every penny we spent.

We loved our room, decided to splurge as it is our first wedding anniversary and we booked the room with in room onsen. But honestly with the price we paid it was a little disappointing as the Onsen was not really fantastic or anything to wow about. What we loved was the scenery, the room space & the dinner provided. Breakfast was also sumptuous with many choices! Noboribetsu was really a slow and sleepy town with minimal things but a good escape from our usual busy and stressful life. If we went as a family the price would definitely be more worth while but as a couple it was on the pricier side. We would return in the future if there’s a chance to for sure!

Blown away by thiis beautiful hotel. It is conveniently located to the shopping district and also not that far away from Jigokudani, and u an walk or drive. We opted for dinner and breakfast. Dinner was in a private room and the courses were actually decently filling! Not sure why some people are saying the food is little. The private hotspring in the room was good for a soak and that complimentary beer helps to cool things off. All in all, a delightful stay.

Nice onsen no matter public or private one! Clean room with nice view The meals are yummy as well!
