Hotel berhampiran Setona Folk Art, Teshikaga

選擇這家酒店，一是有單人價，對獨行俠友好，二是酒店衹有60間房，比大酒店更合我意，第三，可以充實攜程的點評，下單之前，衹有一條。絕大多數日本酒店住過之後的感覺是錢，花的值，這家也不例外。接駁很方便，從網走到川湯温泉，下車後坐bus到終點，就看見忍冬兩字了。公區比房間做得好，房間非常一般，就是把榻榻米升高變成床而已， 連個牀頭櫃都沒有的，坐便器的説明居然拼錯，打破了日本人非常在意細節的刻板印象。自助餐的蝦刺身品質極高，糯糯甜甜，早晚餐都能吃到，爽歪歪。如果你是一人獨行，喜歡刺身，喜歡海鮮，時間充裕的話，可以沖，不會後悔的。

小学1年生連れの家族3人で宿泊しました。 別邸忍冬の和洋室です。 玄関に到着して車のドアを開けた途端、濃い硫黄の匂いにびっくりしました。 すぐ脇に温泉の川が流れていて、到着時から期待が膨らみます。 実際の温泉に飛び込むと、その濃厚な湯にびっくり。大浴場や露天風呂は比較的小さいものの、お湯の良さは抜群でした。 お部屋は家族連れでも十分な広さ。 そしてお食事がとにかく美味しかった。夕食も朝食もブッフェでしたが、1泊では食べきれないくらい、美味しい料理がたくさん。何泊もして色々食べつくしたくなりました。 そして、スタッフの方々の接客もとても温かくて心地よかったです。 特に子供は、売店の奥で鹿の角の細工をしていらっしゃる女性の方にとても優しくして頂いて、いい思い出になりました。

We stayed for 2 nights and chose this resort for the wildlife. The checkin was efficient and they had English speaking staff. The room assigned was a Japanese style room with a sleeping n living area and lots of space for everything. The staff were friendly and helpful. The dinner meals were individually set for each room at the restaurant. The breakfast was a buffet and had many choices. While you had your meal you can enjoy the bird feeding session. We stay awake while waiting for the fish owl which appear about twice in the evening and early morning. We had to use the Onsen at 2am, just to keep ourselves awake during our wait. For the 2 days, we did not venture out of the lodge as we slept in the day and stay awake at night for the owl. There is ample carpark, coin operated laundry machine and lots of free coffee at the lobby.

EXCELLENT hotel. Has a minimalist luxury façade the moment your car pulls into the entrance driveway. Staff are friendly and accomodating from the start. The lobby is gorgeous with a view of a section of the Akan river. The onsen is great too. We were BLOWN AWAY by the dinner and breakfast food in terms of taste, variety, presentation and styling. The servers did not speak much English but they were trying their best and were very friendly! We are so sorry we do not really speak Japanese. We had a room with a view of the river. Several deer were just outside the window. Beautiful aura of the place. 10/10 recommend. Wish we had 1 more night :) The room itself BLEW us away! It's small but thoughtfully designed, great for bird watching. Absolutely loved the room!!!!

We chose a lake view room for a night while driving around north east Hokkaido. The lobby gets crowded during checkin with many local visitors. The room and bathroom are small but acceptable since we have stayed in similar Japanese size rooms before. The breakfast n dinner buffet are acceptable. Guests are given a timing to choose their meal times. This helps with crowd control. The hotel charges for overnight parking and upon checkout, guests have to take a shuttle to about 1.5km away to retrieve their car. In the evening 8pm, we saw fireworks from our room. Excellent.

We spent two nights at this property earlier this month, as Akanko (i.e. Lake Akan) has a variety of things to do and we wanted to make the most of our time there. The Lake Akan area of Eastern Hokkaido is blessed with some of the country's most incredible natural environments including old-growth forests, a pristine lake, scenic mountains, mud volcanoes and the Marimo, a unique and unusual freshwater green algae that is shaped like a green ball and which can grow to about the size of a volleyball. There is also a cultural element to the area, as Ainu Kotan is one of Hokkaido's largest Ainu (indigenous people) settlements with roughly 130 individuals calling the place home. Aino Kotan has a main ***** that has a variety of stores selling Ainu handicrafts as well as restaurants serving traditional Ainu cuisine. There is also a museum and a performing arts center, giving visitors the opportunity to enjoy a variety of Ainu performing arts. You can also reserve a private guided tour with an Ainu descendent who you will follow through a pretty forest while he/she explains how the Ainu used to live. Akan Tsuruga Besso Hinanoza (that's its full name) is a luxury ryokan established in 2004 by the Tsuruga Group, and is just steps away from the lake shore. It's ideally situated - almost everything we wanted to experience (Ainu Village, Lake cruise, hiking, shopping) is within short walking distance from the ryokan. That said, the entire town is clustered in a small area along the South shore of the lake, so wherever you stay, it's going to be convenient. The property is in a nondescript 7-story building, although it's in pretty good shape from the outside (which is not the case with many older ryokans of this type.) Inside, in the common areas there are a variety of wood carvings that are on display; the indigenous Ainu are renowned for their woodworking skills, the displays are a wonderful tribute to the local Ainu artisans. Of the 25 rooms at Hinanoza, 4 of them are Tokubetsu-****su (”Special”) units that are 110m² in size, and are denoted as Ama no Za Suite. Our Tokubetsu-****su was on the 6th floor (the highest floor among guest rooms), and was named the Hina no Za (#601.) As is the case with most suites at top ryokans, it featured a living room, a tatami room and a separate bedroom. The decor and furnishings were Japanese-contemporary and of high quality - the hard product was fantastic overall. The Onsen bath is located on the deck, and is free-flowing and not recirculated... perfect. As was the case with Sanyoan, our Special room had two toilets in different areas of the Suite, although - curiously - featured only one sink. Mrs. KI-NRT would take that trade-off any day of the week. Hinanoza does have the obligatory Daiyokujo (gender-segregated communal Onsen bath), but given that every room here has en-suite Onsen, the vast majority of guests will never leave the comforts of their room. It was empty every time we took a peak in the Daiyokujo. All

stayed one night for visiting lake akan and nearby attractions, onsen bath is great with an outdoor infinity pool on rooftop overseeing the view of the lake. all meals were served in buffet manner and the food was surprisingly good with a great number of choices, mainly japanese dishes. one drawback is there are only 3 coined washing machines for laundry

丘の上にポツンと建つ宿＆レストランです。いかにも北海道という絶景の中で、のんびり過ごせます。食事も美味しく、大満足でした。連泊2日目は、スタッフの皆さんとバーベキューをして楽しみました！ 1棟貸の部屋以外は、シャワーとトイレは共同で、バスタブはありませんが、車で5分ほど走った村の中心部に温泉が2軒あります。 今回は2泊でしたが、次回は長めに滞在してみたいです。
