Cons:

お風呂の露天風呂が使用禁止だったことと、
お風呂の窓ガラス周辺など少し衛生面でよくして欲しかったです。

We were sad to leave and wanted to extend our stay.
Pros:

Our room was extremely spacious. We enjoyed the fireplace next to the big window to see the snow fall.

Cons:

Not enough American breakfast options. Bottleneck at the front desk due to the shoe removal requirement.

Pros:

All perfect, the room was really large and clean, with modern architecture.
Small problem with the parking that wasn't reserved for us even though it was written on the reservation.

Kotoisa mukava hotelli, aamupala hyvä japanin mittapuulla.
Pros:

Viihtyisä ja siisti hotelli erinomaisella sijainnilla. Henkilökunta huomioi mukavasti ennen aamiaista matkaan lähtiessä. Kiitokset siitä.

Great location & spacious room in a renewed historical building, but onsen is just so so and dinner is disappointing
Pros:

A modern spacious dedicated hotel stay based on a real historical building locating over the hill in the center of Otaru.

Room: Super spacious at a very fine rate. The wood-themed interior is really new, refined and full of design details which beyond my expectations. There’s a French window corner which gives me a great view angle of the town and the ocean. I also have a historical desk placed in my room. Heater works really well too. However, there is no desk but only coffee table for me to use in such a huge space, that’s a pity, otherwise I’ll definitely give 5 stars especially because of this valuable price.

Hallway: Cold in the winter, which is not good…

Onsen: small but clean. There’s limited view. Open-air bath is super small with no view, nor opened; (photos were all taken while Onsen is closed)

Dinner: good chicken soup curry but it’s a small meal. However, it’s cheap, so overall I like it.

Breakfast: very good especially at this price. It feels special and home-like warm while eating the breakfast. Homemade beef stew is so tasty that the sauce was so balanced with mixed flavors. Croissant is super crispy with extremely light layers texture. I wish the milk drink’s quality could be better to match the food.

Cons:

Hallway is a bit cold, onsen has no interesting view at all. Dinner is just simple soup curry which is a bit disappointing

I’m sure we would have had a much better experience if it weren’t for the heavy snow
Pros:

The bath was nice and the room is sufficiently roomy.

Cons:

We struggled with getting to the property. The property didn’t provide any help with travels or the snow. There was also a lot of ice all along the road to the hotel, and there was only one path to the hotel. We would have had a much better experience if it weren’t for the heavy snow, I’m sure. The breakfast was also a bit sparse.
