“Less than an hour from Asahikawa, this onsen hotel impressed me with its thoughtful design, including manga-lined walls and well-stocked refreshment areas; I appreciate the comprehensive onsen with both indoor and outdoor spaces and the family-friendly amenities, such as kids' areas and a gym. Locally sourced dining and stargazing events add to its appeal, making it a place to relax and explore, in my opinion. I think that the combination of wellness and recreation makes this hotel worth considering.”
