Hotel Noboribetsu dengan Sarapan

I had a wonderful stay at Kashoutei Hanaya and it turned out to be one of the most memorable ryokan experiences of my Hokkaido trip. This is not a large luxury resort. In fact, the property is relatively small and has a traditional, old-fashioned Japanese ryokan atmosphere. Some parts of the building show their age, but everything is very clean, well maintained, and full of character. What really makes this place special is the service. Because the hotel is small, the staff are able to provide a very personal and attentive experience. Everything is organized smoothly, yet it never feels mechanical or overly formal. Instead, you can genuinely feel the warmth and hospitality of the people working there. It feels much more intimate than staying at a large hotel. One unique aspect that I really enjoyed was removing my shoes at the entrance and walking barefoot throughout the property. It immediately creates a relaxing and home-like atmosphere. The traditional Japanese dinner and breakfast were excellent. The quality of the ingredients was very good, and each dish was carefully prepared and beautifully presented. Dining here felt like an important part of the overall experience rather than just a meal. The hot spring was another highlight. You can immediately tell that the water comes directly from a natural source. The mineral scent is noticeable and authentic, making the onsen experience feel genuine and special. The location is slightly away from the busier part of Noboribetsu, but for me that was actually a positive. The surroundings are quiet and peaceful, perfect for relaxation. The futon was also surprisingly comfortable, and I had one of the best nights of sleep during my trip. If you are looking for a modern luxury hotel, this may not be the right choice. But if you appreciate traditional Japanese hospitality, authentic hot springs, excellent food, and a peaceful atmosphere, Kashoutei Hanaya is a wonderful place to stay.

Nice overall experience. Location extremely central and easy to get to many key places. The ryokan is clearly very used to foreigners. Overall a good experience but I was made fun of by a staff for not knowing some of the ryokan rules (I can understand Japanese but I cannot speak it well). This was the only thing that was a bit embarrassing. The breakfast and dinner were both amazing. I would highly recommend this place.

The location is very convenient. Just opposite of Takimotokan Hotel. Guests of Adex Inn have free access to the onsen in Takimotokan Hotel too. There is also an onsen in Adex Inn. Very close to restaurants and convenience stores. 10-15 min walk to Bear Park. Very clean. Room is not very spacious but enough for short stay for 1 person.

The hotel seems to be renovated with good wifi coverage, and there is a smart tv in the room which one can log into Netflix account. The bedding is thin, so one will feel the floor when lying on it. Dinner may not be the most impressive, but still good value at the price point they are charging.

For a weekend 2 day onsen break, this hotel is perfect.  Noboreitsu is a small place and the location of this hotel is very good (at the bottom of a hill right next to the bus terminus).  The single room itself is small but adequate albeit retro, but the onsen facilities are pretty good and despite the large commercial size of the hotel, the onset is never busy.  The breakfast and dinner buffets are decent, but as it barely changes, you will get bored pretty quickly after 2 days.  Jikokudani is less than 10 minutes away by foot - if you enjoyed this during the day, it is super-pretty in the evening and the evening walk makes a lovely post-dinner saunter (see photos).  You will pass the main shopping street on the way there and back (most shops close at around 9pm).   The only downside to the hotel is the sheer number of tour groups that check in/out.  4-6pm and early morning 8-10am are just rammed with tour buses/groups and the hotel lifts are packed as a result.
