Spent two days at the Surfeel Hotel, Wakkanai in early February 23. It is a short walk from Wakkanai rail station and well placed to reach most of the town easily on foot. Well I say easily, the snow was incredibly high in the streets and sidewalks so obviously the right clothing and footwear is essential! We had a lovely room overlooking the sea with a big picture window. We could spend hours watching the changing conditions which moved through heavy snow to sunshine back to snow in minutes throughout most of our stay. The old infrastructure from submarine pens has now gone but the covered archway stretches out to form one side of the harbour just beyond the hotel. We ate out in town both nights we were in Wakkanai - not a reflection on the hotel offering but just part of our normal routine to explore and experience other things. We did try and get a drink one night in the rooftop bar but found it closed for the season. We managed to get a couple of beers in the restaurant on the ground floor but they kicked us out at 9pm as they were closing! That said staff throughout the hotel were charming and helpful as ever. Breakfast was pretty good. The offering was dominated by Japanese specialities as you would more than expect with limited western alternatives but the croissant, coffee and eggs were all good. We tried a variety of Japanese dishes and they were pretty good as well. The temperature in the restaurant was about 30C and just felt unhealthy. We were the only people in there but the Japanese obsession with anti-COVID measures is very tiresome and masks were required as were gloves whilst getting your food on a tray from the buffet. At least we didn’t have a pathetic little plastic screen placed between us like we did at our hotel in Sapporo! We knew the Japanese would be masked up - they often were even before COVID - but come on, time and life have moved on! All-in-all a very good hotel and option for stay in Wakkanai especially with a sea-view room on a higher floor. Well done Surfeel Hotel and thank you.

周辺のホテルが満室だったので利用。稚内のホテルは1人旅には不向きなホテルが多い中、手ごろな値段で泊まれるホテルがあって助かった。2020年6月オープンということもあり、ゲストハウスは新しく、設備も充実していた。また、気さくなオーナーとの会話も弾み、楽しい滞在となった。

房內不大，衞浴在房外，很乾淨，咖啡很好喝，附近有公共溫泉可以泡湯，消除旅遊的疲累感。

東側の棟のシングルを利用。外観は少し年季が入った印象を受けるが、客室内はモダンな感じで改装されていて、必要なものは置かれていて、案外、快適に過ごすことができた。地下の大浴場は、宗谷地方でよくある黄緑色の温泉であり、快適だった。朝食は地域の食材もあって満足だった。スタッフの対応は、まあ、ホスピタリティをあまり表に出さない当地では一般的な対応であったが、総じてみれば快適なホテルであった。駐車場がいつも混んでいるのが少し難。

This was our fourth visit to this wonderful little hotel at the northern tip of Rebun Island. Our first was some 30 years ago when they just opened and had one building. Now they have three buildings for rooms and a bath house. On this small island one should not expect five star luxury rooms. But our room was large with two comfortable beds and a large bathroom as well. A highlight of any stay here is the food - the local seafood. Starting with generous portion of fresh uni. On any given night you might have crab, abalone or other local fish. The couple that opened the hotel take good care of their guests. It is also a great location for hiking the northern tip of the island - with the amazing costal views and wild flowers. The inn will pick you up at the ferry, so you don't need an expensive rental care, and if you are hiking you can use the local bus loop (although not that frequent) My wife (Japanese) and I are big fans of Rebun and this hotel.
