"I like the two room design, with independent shower rooms. Love the kitchen and the living room, very comfortable.
The biggest selling point of the very expensive room rate was the view of Mt. Yotei. But there's a high rise building standing in the very middle of the view, blocking almost 40% of Mt. Yotei view from our room. The room rate was not worth it.
Also soundproof was bad too. I could hear clearly how loud the people on the street were at 1am."
"This is not the traditional type of big, luxurious Japanese onsen hotel but it’s new, relaxing, airy and chic.
In room bath is great with amazing view from the room. Food (Japanese western fusion) is good and staff is friendly and helpful. There is a noodle bar which opens until late and is impressive for a hotel of this scale.
The overall design is modern and chill. It’s a good place for urban getaway.
The neighborhood is very quiet too.
Outdoor onsen water is not hot enough which is worth improving. There is a notice which says that the bath may not be hot enough because of the cold temperature but winter around Lake Toya has always been like this so it’s not a good excuse. "
