Hakodate Onuma Prince Hotel

“beautiful stay”

Loved the view from our room, and the onsen looking over the lake and snowy scenery. Free shuttle from Onumakoen station. And the bakery is across from the parking lot. We had uni curry, a pastry, a pizza, 2 coffees for 2,500 yen only!

This hotel is situated in the beautiful green landscape of Hokkaido. the hotel is huge and can accommodatie large groups. There is a big parking lot next to the hotel. The breakfast and dinner buffet hall offers a wide view on the surroundings including the beautiful mountain Komagatake, when the mountain is not hidden in the clouds, that is. The huge breakfast and dinner buffet hall gave me a bit of an school mess vibe though. The breakfast options were plentiful and of high quality. Our room was clean and spacious and the bed was good. I liked the little seating corner with a view on the surrounding forest. The interior was pleasant, although the bath room felt rather dated. Our luggage was brought to our room by the hotel staff, a nice gesture. The hotel itself, especially the lobby, the dining hall and the long hallways had a bit of a dated feeling and the carpet was a bit dirty in some places. A make-over of the communal areas could give this hotel a more modern vibe. Staff was friendly and helpful although their English was mostly absent. We tried the classic french style dinner once. Dinner was good, but i would have preferred a Japanese style dinner. It was not clear to us beforehand that dinner wouldn't be Japanese style, although we got shown the menu. Service was very attentive though and the dining area was stylish, although not really my taste. The dinner buffet was a bit of a disappointment. We arrived at 19.20 but although to restaurant was open until 20.30, Some of the options were already gone and i found there was too much overlap with the dishes offered at breakfast. We ordered a quite expensive bottle of saké for about 42 euro's. Turned out in another hotel later on we only payed 22 euro's for exact the same bottle. A bit of a rip off... The hotel bar has very limited opening hours and according to me closes too early. Luckily the convience store in the hotel has better opening hours. There is also a boutique to shop for clothes. The onsen was very beautiful. Especially the outside pool offers a lovely view on the pond and mount Komagatake in the distance. In the evening the pond is beautifully lit. A great way to relax.

“Cozy hotel hidden in the woods”

This hotel is located pretty deep in the woods, it's a bit scary to drive there after dark, but once you reach the main building, there's a large parking lot close by. (There are a few buses go to the hotel as well, but beware nothing is within the walking distance) The hotel is quite big but some… lisää

This hotel is located pretty deep in the woods, it's a bit scary to drive there after dark, but once you reach the main building, there's a large parking lot close by. (There are a few buses go to the hotel as well, but beware nothing is within the walking distance) The hotel is quite big but somehow has a cozy feeling I can't really tell why, probably due to a combination of lighting, texture and smells. This is most obvious in the guest rooms. My room wasn't very big. It didn't look fancy, it didn't even have a view (just trees outside). But I still felt comfortable just to be there and I enjoyed my stay. The hotel was also a lot quieter than I expected, with fewer tourist groups than other major hotels I stayed in Hokkaido recently. They do have a laundry room for guests, which is very rare for a hotel at this level. The one thing that disappointed me was the dinner. Yes the restaurant had a good view to the lighted swamp outside, but the portion was ridiculously small and the taste wasn't good enough for the price tag. Because there's nothing within walking distance, I had to drive out to the nearest convenience store to get more food. The breakfast buffet was great though, with a huge selection of items and good taste. The hot spring bath was pretty small, but had a unique setting that feels like it's connected to the lighted swamp outside. When someone enters the pool, water will spill out into the swamp below (I believe). The bathing experience was natural and tranquil. You can also walk into the woods around the hotel to experience more of the local nature (though there are a lots of bugs). Overall I think this hotel feels pleasant and is surprisingly cost effective if you skip the dinner.

“Classy Japanese Onsen hotel in the middle of Onuma National Park”

I am so glad to choose this place. This is the kind of luxury hotels Japanese go for their well earned vocation. 99% of clients are Japanese, the service is excellent, and the place is so clean.

I am so glad to choose this place. This is the kind of luxury hotels Japanese go for their well earned vocation. 99% of clients are Japanese, the service is excellent, and the place is so clean. It is in the middle of a swamp forest, and you feel you are really getaway from it all. That's why it is always worth to do your homework to choose a hotel. A good choice could elevated your breaks into a great experience. The hotel is 25 km outside Hakodate, its huge secluded, and the staffs, though poor in English, are really eager to help. The Onsen is huge and the outside area feature a view of the lake and the forest, and though you are in the open, your privacy is secured. A 30 minutes in the bath really clear and calm your mind and body, and make you so relax and make your night sleep so sweet. Breakfast is a big affair, there are so many choices, Western items are limited but you can have a feast with grilled Salmon, handmade sushi rolls, and deserts made with Hokkaido milk. A short drive is Onuma national park, do spree an hour to look at the beautiful parks with hundreds of lakes and soaring hills.
