Onsen Paradise Hotel Review

Reviewed By CHCheong173

This hotel is located just beside the entrance to the Jikokudani and is around 5 mins walk from the bus station crossing the onsen street. As I am travelling solo, thus the room I could get is western room and it looks like recently renovated. My room plan also included Japanese Kaiseki dinner which is good and buffet breakfast in the morning. Note that the hotel offer other room plan too, such as Japanese room with dinner serving in a restaurant or in room. There are also plan for buffet dinner too. Even without meal plan for your room, the hotel does have other restaurants or you could always find something at the onsen street. This hotel has a very big onsen bath overlooking the Jikokudani: Grand Bath with 5 different spring waters and a total of 35 different baths for male and female, indoor and outdoor. There is also a pool for kids under the grand bath. For onsen lover, this is indeed an onsen paradise, which I have spent about 1 hr+ X 2 visits! This is definitely a great hotel for onsen lover!

As lovely as before

Reviewed By Aniceday

I had written a review after staying at Akan Yuku no Sato Tsuruga last June. Since I wanted to see autumn leaves in Hokkaido I went to Lake Akan again in October and naturally I chose to stay at Akan Yuku no Sato Tsuruga again because of the good experience. The room I picked was a standard twin room which was very spacious with a writing desk and from where I could see the lake. Comfy and neat. The buffet dinner with fresh spot prawns among other seafood and sashimi was as impressive as last time. Fully enjoyed it! Eagerly tried the two outdoor onsen as well as another indoor one at the adjacent building. The views at the outdoor ones were unbeatable! I wish I could be there again soon!

Marukoma Onsen Ryokan

Wonderful one night stay

Reviewed By iamjucifer

Had a wonderful time at the onsen last week. Room came with dinner and buffet breakfast, was quite taken aback when the room didn't come with a shower but we managed by booking a private onsen at night, also it was winter so it wasn't much of an issue. Staff were very helpful, we had a wonderful time and a good view of Lake Shikotsu from our room.

Great setting and location, very average food

Reviewed By PJDG

We stayed here for 3 nights in August 2020. The ryokan is in a great location, and is within comfortable driving range of a number of must see attractions in Akan National Park. The staff are also super friendly and very welcoming. The setting is also beautiful, and very relaxing . We paid a bit more for an upgrade room which was definitely worth it for the extra space and the view (see note below re. the room temperature though). For us however, the food is not a reason to stay at La Vista Akangawa. I guess this comes down to personal taste, but my wife and I found the food to be average at best. We love ryokan meals generally, and we were really looking forward to the meals - but unfortunately the standard was in our opinion surprisingly poor given the other reviews on this site. Maybe we caught them on an off week when the ingredients were not good quality or something similar. They also desperately need to clean the windows of the building - particularly in the restaurant. The beautiful view onto the river is spoiled by how dirty the floor to ceiling windows have become. Such a shame because the view would otherwise have been amazing. Not really what you expect for the prices being charged. The room was great, nice and spacious, with a lovely bath looking out onto the river. The only issue was the temperature - the air con doesn't seem to be particularly effective. When you are paying such high prices you expect the room temperature to be manageable, and the windows to be clean! So in summary, the location and setting is superb, but I don't think that alone justifies the price tag given the average food and other issues mentioned above. We won't be staying here again - i would have given it 2.5 stars, but felt 2 stars was too harsh, so rounded up to 3.

Nice Hotel

Reviewed By LimKahChuan

We wanted to catch the sunrise at the easternmost point of hokkaido, and chose this hotel. We chose a tatami room, and was fairly spacious. We had to leave the key with the counter if we were to go out (even when we woke up at 4+am). The town was pretty quiet, but there were a few eateries around the hotel. If you drive, the carpark is just right opposite the hotel. Breakfast was buffet style. You can also make your own katte don.

Memorable stay with 5star hospitality

Reviewed By chihosucre

We stayed for 2 nights with my son and parents. Unfortunately the weather was not the best even though this hotel is famous for its ocean front view. Yet still their hospitality never made us bored or disappointed. All the staff were so welcoming and the hotel dog “Moco” is so cute to spend time with her. Hotel lounge is always open with morning/lunch/night drinks& snacks depending on the time of the day and it leads to the ocean view pass way. Jackets, hats, umbrellas and towels for outside foot bath are prepared at the pass way door in case the guests need them to stroll. Such a great hospitality in details! It’s a traditional ”Ryokan” style but some area is decorated with mid-century furniture and looks modern and stylish. Onsen bath is very relaxing with full amenity prepared. You can even pampered with cold sorbet after Onsen! Dinner and breakfast are simply amazing! They looked beautiful and tasted fantastic. I cannot think of any other choice for my next visit in Hokkaido.

Nice place for a winter breather

Reviewed By OneJImHeywood

We used two days here while on an extended photo trip to the region. There are winter activities available but I just chilled. The hotel is very modern and stylish. Lots of cultural references to the Ainu ( original inhabitants of the north island). You can use the totems on the property as foreground for the nightly fireworks display. Small town surrounds the property and is basically a touristy place. I did find a delicious meal in a small restaurant near by. The baths located inside the hotel are really nice. They range from hot, to hotter to really hot. Ajoining this hotel is another section which apparently caters more to the locals. Very interesting shops and the food there is even more varied . Check this out!

Nice Ryokan and onsen experience

Reviewed By anaest

We wanted a more private ryokan experience with dinner served privately rather than a buffet so we chose this ryokan. It was a great experience although it cost a lot, I think the price is a bit steep for services or food provided. The good: the location is central, on the shopping street itself and very walkable to the Hell Valley. We arrived by car and there is free parking just across the ryokan. The ryokan is smallish so more personal. We were served dinner in a private room, very cozy and intimate compared to buffet with lots of other tourists in bigger hotels. There was no non smoking room but I was pleasantly surprised by the very clean air. The onsen is small one outdoor one indoor but we were the only people using it - just me and my three daughters and my husband next door in the man side - fantastic since it was our first onsen experience and we were worried about being in our birth suit. The shampoos etc was very good in the onsen. The not so good: It was quite hard to locate as the sign is not in English. It took us a while. The main course of the dinner was a disappointment, the grilled mackerel was dried and not piping hot. The same dish served at Onsen Ichiba just up the road was so much better. The other main course choice was pork which was average. The sashimi was a standout but for my hubby who doesn’t eat raw food the dinner was very mediocre despite the high price. Overall it was a great first onsen and ryokan experience.

Lovely owners, delicious breakfast and great service

Reviewed By hawoona

We really enjoyed staying here. There is parking,you sleep on the floor Japanese style. We opted to have breakfasts and the owners went out of their way to cook a different breakfast for my boyfriend who doesn't eat eggs or fish. The only thing is the building and facilities are old and therefore cold, but they place heaters all over the house to heat the house. I feel the owners do the best they can with the facilities they have got and make up with great service. We enjoyed our hotel milk and biscuit on arrival!
