Hakodate Goryokaku Tower Hotels

"Really fantastic location - directly opposite Hakodate Station (you can literally see it from the station) and walking distance to a lot of restaurants. The ramen place next door (Shinano) has excellent Hakodate shio ramen but be warned, they sell out quickly so be ready to line up just before opening hours. Very clean rooms and decently spacious by Japanese standards. The cleaning crew were excellent and really took care to make sure the place was spotless. Great amenities - the hotel provides pyjamas which they change for you every night, and there is a section at reception for further amenities that aren't in your room (e.g. razors, tea bags). Washing machines are available on the ground floor for ¥600 per use (includes soap). Just be warned for anyone with accessibility issues, that the bathroom is elevated above the room level and can be a trip hazard when trying to come back out. You also have to climb into the bathtub to shower. "

"Room was great, breakfast was very Japanese, location was great, staff was nice"

"Clean room, nice staff"

"This hotel is conveniently located right next to the JR Hakodate Station, which makes it an easy find. For breakfast, it provides a wide variety of local food which tasted delicious, such as the fresh seafood don and salt Ramen live station, and not forgetting the sparkling wine, red and white wine bar at the entrance. Room is of decent size and check in process is smooth. This hotel also comes with a laundrymat services, though it does not have an onsite onsen. Overall, we had an enjoyable stay at the hotel."

"One of the better hotels we have stayed at. The breakfast buffet was huge and the selection of local fish and vegetables was terrific. Room was relatively large by Japan standards and very comfortable. The important question is would we stay there again. ABSOLUTELY! "

"Only issue is the walking distance from the station. If you are ok with that it’s very good."

"Service was exceptional. Facilities were clean and very nice."

"Excellent breakfast, courteous, helpful and friendly staff. Great view of the Goryokaku fort and tower, both a short walk from the hotel. "

"Breakfast was a bit disappointing but everything else excelled. "
