Hotel berhampiran TSURUHA DRUG, Hakodate

Location is convenient, close to the station, tram and morning market. Staff were friendly and helpful. The lounge on 17th floor has good view of the city. Onsen was relaxing, much needed after full day exploring. Really enjoyed our stay!

This was a relaxing and beautiful trip to Onuma, Hakodate and visited with our Japanese sister in law and her husband. Lovely, peaceful accommodations and room amenities, including resort ware/slippers. Some amenities included spa/sauna, complimentary room items, and wifi. We noticed that a bit of the resort maintenance can be looked into such as exterior painting near dock walkway, exterior paneling and outdoor deck flooring near our room spa. Also filling juice containers in train themed bar room could be attended to. Otherwise, staff/service was professional and hospitable. Surrounding garden and walkways were well maintained with seasonal flowers. We enjoyed a French themed dinner, which can include a requested sommelier. The on site bakery was a plus, but note that some days they are closed. After enjoying our stay, we actually requested an extra day to explore nearby restaurants and parks/lake. We were thoroughly relaxed and look forward to a future visit.

We stayed at Century Marina for our first night in Hokkaido and originally chose it for its proximity to most of the sites we wanted to see in Hakodate. It's just a few minute walk from the train station with plenty of sidewalks so pulling our suitcases was no issue. The hotel also has a large parking lot if you choose to drive. It's also just a few minute walk from the warehouse district and the older area up the hill where a lot of historical embassies and churches are. The hotel's breakfast buffet is an experience itself with an extensive spread of both Japanese and Western food options. You will reserve a time slot when checking in, but even then you should expect a 10-20 minute wait in the morning to get your table, so its best to go up before your reserved time. This hotel also has one of the best rooftop onsen I've seen, with wonderful views of the whole marina and hill. When booking I didn't realize there was a hot springs so this was a nice surprise. Our room was right next to the elevator but very quiet and clean. This is a newer hotel too so everything felt very fresh and well-maintained. We checked in using Japanese, but the hotel has check-in info packets and signs in English so this is a good option for non-Japanese speaking guests as well.

とてもきれいなホテル！ベットは、硬さも寝心地もとても良かったぁ私好みでした。各部屋にWi-Fiも付いていてめっちゃ良い！スタッフの方たちの対応も親切でとても良かったです。夜にサービスでのカレーライスもとても美味しかった。無料の朝のご飯もとても美味しかったです。コチラへ来る機会があれば、再度宿泊したいな！価格も安い！ただ、周辺には、徒歩で行けるような飲食店など無かったので今後に期待ですね！ おすすめです！

This hotel is a relatively newer hotel . There is a huge free open carpark behind the hotel. Check in was fast . Welcome drinks were served. The twin rooms are very comfortable with good temperature control and firm beds. Wifi was fast. There was a bathtub and a area to sit down and shower just like in the onsen area. Two bottles of water were provided. Dinner was good with snow crabs , sashimi like tuna , octopus , ikura etc . There was also a ramen section where you cook your own ramen . For desert , there was an assortment of cakes and ice cream . Onsens were new and relatively empty. The bathing area was adequately lit . The only drawback was that only one type of shampoo and conditioner was available . There was a long indoor onsen . Outdoor onsens had a long sort of infinity pool , another pool and two barrel tubs . The onsens were clean and new and quiet. There was also a resting area that looked out over the city at night . What would make the experience better would be perhaps popsicles could be offered for all to enjoy after the onsen. Breakfast was good . Overall a very comfortable and reasonably priced stay near an Aeon mall and fantastic soba restaurant

It has been almost 3 years that we have not visited Japan. Once Japan opened tourism, we packed our bags. We decided this trip will be a trip to enjoy some onsen (hot springs bath) and to see some fall foliage in colors. We picked Hakodate for onsen. This hotel offers in room open air bath tub on the balcony with a 180 degree ocean view!! Our activities were focused on taking onsen and having great food at the hotel buffet restaurant. After a great onsen bath, we wore the clothing they provided to us to the restaurant, very layback and relaxing!! There were many families, old and very young at the hotel over the weekend. So we think families take short vacations here. Strongly recommend to add Hakodate and this hotel to be part of your tour in Japan !

What an amazing hotel HakoBA Hakodate is. It is located in the old Fuji Bank building which gives it a unique character. They have done an amazing job updating the interior making it look modern yet still letting the character of the building shine through, awesome! Staff at reception were super friendly and helped us with lots of recommendations, like food and drink, and helped us with the public transport 1-day pass which you can buy here. There's also a cool little shop in the reception area selling local gifts. The room was really nice and we were lucky they gave us a room on the top floor which meant the room had really high ceilings and amazing details on the ceiling. Bathroom was pretty large, very modern and clean. Location wise this hotel is perfect. It is a 20 minute walk from the station but well connected to other public transport like buses and the city tram system. Located in the middle of the redbrick warehouse area of Hakodate there's plenty of shopping and restaurants around. Ideal for exploring this amazing city. Highly recommend staying here!

We appreciate the location of the hotel next to the JR Hakodate station. There is a 7-11 and some sort of supermarket on level 1 of the station, next to hotel. Lawson mini-mart is a stone’s throw away. The hotel room that we booked were located on 8th floor. There are only 2 lifts which are pretty small. Probably enough for 5-6 pax with 4-5 pieces of luggage’s will fill up a lift. If you stay on the lower levels, and during peak hour of checking out, good luck to you then! The lifts will be filled with guests from the upper storeys and their luggages. This hotel is not suitable for large groups of travellers as the waiting time for lifts is frustrating. Bathroom amenities are located on lobby level, so make sure you collect them before going up after checking in. There is also a pillow section which displays different sizes and types of hardness, with beads or cotton within. So take your pick of the pillow, and remember your pillow casings! On level 12 is a lounge where you can get your morning coffee daily from a coffee machine, FOC. Books there are all in Japanese language so we didn’t get to read as we are not literate in the language. The bathroom has good water pressure, albeit small for bigger sized Caucasians, and may create a claustrophobic feeling within a small confinement for the toilet and bathroom. The bed mattress is firm and we are ok with it. The location of the hotel is a little far from ABC-Mart, and also Uniqlo, Muji and other big stores. The hotel is next to a bus interchange where you can take different buses to various places of attraction, but buses arrive at different time intervals.

The front desk staff did not provide clear explanations during check-in and only gave guests a single English introduction to read on their own. This will cause confusion and inconvenience. This hotel is convenient for self-driving travelers, as it has partnered with nearby parking lots to ensure ample parking space. Apartment-style hotel providing fully equipped facilities as there is no need to go outside to find a laundry store(remember to buy laundry detergent). The hotel hot spring is great, guests can watch TV while enjoying hot springs. The rooms are spacious, and some even offer sea views from the windows. Without a doubt, I highly recommend this hotel for a truly delightful stay.
