The entire experience was fantastic! From the hospitality of the service staff to the attention to details, the entire experience was impeccable and really made our stay a memorable one. Will be back again definitely.
It’s a destination resort you should really plan for it however from the moment you have met the driver from Setsu at the Kutchan station and everything is beyond your expectations and impeccable service.
Love the private Onsen experience yet the public Onsen is also not so busy at this time.
However I will definitely go visit and stay again during the winter time.
Two three four or more thumbs up 👍
Hokkaido in summer has its own unique charm. There's a direct hotel bus from New Chitose Airport. My flight was delayed by about an hour that day, but the shuttle bus staff waited directly at the arrival gate for us and even took us on a shortcut to exchange our pre-booked JR Pass. We're so grateful to this enthusiastic staff member!
The Westin is part of the Rusutsu Resort. While it's an older property, it's very well-maintained. The lobby is cozy, and the rooms are clean and tidy. All rooms are loft-style, but it's a bit inconvenient that there's no restroom on the second floor.
We had dinner at the hotel's buffet twice and at the Rusutsu Resort Hotel buffet across the street once. The Westin's buffet leaned more Western, while the resort hotel's was more rustic and offered a wider variety of dishes.
Hope to visit again in the winter during ski season!
Booked a room with private onsen and shared amongst 3 friends. There is valet parking upon arrival, and complimentary drinks and simple snacks at the welcome lounge between 3-10pm. They had a harpist perform at the lounge and dinner sometimes, it was very peaceful!
Room was nice and comfortable, facing a nice view of lake Toya. Would have liked to be even closer to the lake as it turns out there is a field between the hotel and the lake. Temperature and size of private onsen js good, room facilities also great.
Breakfast and dinner was wonderful, for dinner they serve a 6-7 course French styled meal on both nights made by Japanese ingredients. They had western and Japanese main plate options for breakfast with a buffet alongside too. Choices were plentiful and delicious.
Staff generally very courteous and helpful, we had an issue with the hot water in our shower which they work very hard to fix. There was a random incident where one of the staff Yusaku was very rude to us at the Lumiere restaurant, he pretended not to understand English when taking our order for tea/ coffee, and even challenged us when we asked for lemon in tea, he said ‘what colleague?’ And ‘you want a piece of tea?’. Completely unacceptable for a hotel like this. The rest of the staff were nothing like that.
We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location is perfect — just a 2-minute walk to the Hirafu Welcome Centre, making it extremely convenient, especially for catching the direct bus from the airport. The surrounding scenery is beautiful, giving us a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere throughout our stay.
The service was excellent. The staff were attentive, helpful, and made everything very smooth for us. The room was super clean, well-maintained, and came with a washing machine, which was incredibly convenient for our trip.
What impressed us the most was their pick-up and drop-off service to the Hirafu Welcome Centre. It made our arrival and departure completely hassle-free.
Highly recommended for anyone visiting Hirafu!
Niseko in summer has its own distinct advantages. It's less crowded, the air is fresh and cool, and hotel rates are significantly lower. The hotel's decor is tasteful and understated, reminiscent of a city Ritz-Carlton. With fewer rooms, the service is remarkably attentive. Breakfast is a hybrid of a set menu and a small buffet spread, which was quite satisfying. We found the dinner restaurant to have a somewhat limited kitchen and offer average value for money, so we chose to dine out for our evening meals. The location is wonderfully quiet. While we had a private car, even without one, the Hilton is just across the ski slope, so transport isn't an issue. A short walk of a few minutes takes you to a ski commercial area, where a few restaurants remain open even in summer. I imagine it's quite expensive in winter, but I do wonder if Niseko's skiing truly surpasses Hemu's? A major perk, of course, is that the hotel essentially has its own dedicated ski lift, offering absolute ski-in/ski-out convenience. It's significantly smaller, quieter, and much less crowded than the Park Hyatt. However, I highly recommend taking the gondola up there at night and then walking down to experience the beautifully designed light exhibition – it's truly stunning.
It had been two years since my last visit, and I was once again delighted to return and stay at this wonderful hotel. The privacy remains just as excellent as I remembered. All the staff, regardless of age, are incredibly warm, courteous, and attentive, remembering every little detail you request. The Okami (female manager) is still elegant and gracious, truly the gold standard for Japanese onsen hotels in my opinion. On the first night, we upgraded to the Teppanyaki course, which absolutely exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend that fellow guests planning a stay book this set menu in advance via email (an additional ¥24,000 for two people). Chef Hoshizawa was delightful, making for a particularly pleasant dining experience with great conversation throughout the meal.
Everything is good, the food is very exquisite, the sense of ceremony is full, but the food is exquisite, the actual taste and ingredients are ordinary, no merit or fault. The overall experience is affirmed. Before booking, I saw in the comment area that the charge for bringing children is no more than 1,000 yuan per person. When I settled the bill, I was shocked to see the price. One child added almost 4,000 yuan per night. We brought two children and added 8,000 yuan per night, which is equivalent to one night's room rate. I especially want to know if the hotel has always charged this way? We stayed for two nights and added almost 16,000 yuan. The room type we booked on Ctrip did not include dinner. It was simply a big sucker. Just a reference for the Chinese compatriots behind, you don’t have to stay, you can stay. The hotel is OK in all aspects, the public area is pretty, the room is large but lacks design. It’s more homely! But there are few facilities, it’s not suitable for parents and children, and the price discourages parents and children. I stayed in Park Hyatt in Kyoto, Japan, a very good hotel. The children were only charged for breakfast. The cost of the children in the Azuki Seat is too exaggerated. In addition, the Shikotsu Lake next to the hotel is quite beautiful, but the transportation here is really inconvenient. The hotel has a pick-up at Chitose Airport, but it is only at 16:45 in the afternoon, so it is really difficult to connect. We took a taxi because there were few cars at night, and the taxi cost about 500 RMB. A taxi from the hotel to Sapporo JR is about 1000 RMB. Because there is too little information to refer to when booking, I posted the information I originally wanted to know for your reference.
We had a wonderful stay at Protom International Hokkaido, and it became one of the most memorable parts of our trip.
The hotel kindly surprised us with a complimentary upgrade to the Junior Twin Suite, and the room was incredibly spacious, clean, and comfortable. We were so happy when we entered the room — it felt bright, modern, and very relaxing, especially after a long day of travel.
What touched us the most was the kindness of the hotel staff. Everyone was polite, warm, and always ready to help. Their hospitality made us feel truly welcomed, not just as guests, but like friends.
We are very grateful for the upgrade and the wonderful service. This stay made our Hokkaido trip even more special. We will definitely choose Protom International Hokkaido again next time.
Highly recommended. ( sorry about only the photos of the key)
This was the most anticipated part of our entire trip, and it certainly didn't disappoint!
#Hotel Location: Excellent. It's right on the hot spring street, and behind it is the pier for lake boat tours (Happy Boardwalk).
#Hotel Service: They upgraded us to a large suite for free, and the view was absolutely fantastic. I loved the suite's layout, amenities, and the smart toilet. The outdoor hot spring faces the lake, and the male and female baths rotate at different times, so you can try them all (っ˘ڡ˘ς)♨️
The buffet was also good, and we additionally ordered a red king crab which was delicious. You can book many activities and experiences at the hotel. There's an outdoor shop called Siri on the first floor of the hotel where you can book activities like hiking and lake tours. My friend and I booked the night forest light show at the front desk. The only thing worth complaining about is how ugly the hot spring robes are – absolutely no desire to take photos in them!
Very Good

SSuiranshijingshenbingdanshimeiguanxiA truly pleasant stay! The hotel is conveniently located, just a ten-minute walk from Sapporo Station, and the surrounding area is quiet. Although the room wasn't spacious, it was well-designed, with comfortable bedding and excellent soundproofing. The front desk staff spoke fluent English, were very friendly and welcoming, and proactively offered advice on city transportation. The breakfast had a wide variety of options, with a good mix of Japanese and Western dishes, and I especially recommend the freshly prepared hot food. The hotel as a whole was clean and tidy, and the facilities were well-maintained. It's a highly cost-effective choice for both business trips and city sightseeing. I would definitely consider staying here again on my next visit to Sapporo.
GGuest UserWe had a really fantastic time at Lake Shikotsu Tsuruga Resort which was a once in a lifetime experience for us. The area is beautiful and the spa has everything you need for a fantastic and relaxing stay. We stayed in a Premier Suite and the rooms are fantastic - fully equipped and spacious with all amenities, and a fantastic private Onsen to relax in.The staff at the spa were extremely friendly and helpful, and attentive to all of our needs. We'd love to come back some time and would highly recommend!

AAnonymous UserThe hotel is located between New Chitose Airport and Sapporo city center. It takes about half an hour to reach Sapporo. If you're looking to shop, staying in Sapporo is more convenient. However, this hotel is a good option if you have an early flight the next day. The room had a very strong disinfectant smell; I suggest the hotel improves its ventilation.
LLonitaHoI chose this hotel in Lake Toya specifically to enjoy the views from a high vantage point. On the way back, I planned to explore the Onsen Bus Center, essentially experiencing two different sides of Lake Toya.
**Facilities**: The hotel is a bit old, having been open for some time. Besides a few Michelin-starred restaurants, there's nothing else to eat on the mountain, so remember to bring some snacks. In winter, there's snowmobiling, and I imagine a ride around the hotel would be a lot of fun, but it wasn't open during my late November visit. I hope to try it next time!
**Service**: From the moment the shuttle bus driver met me at JR holding a sign, to the private transfer to the mountain hotel, and the warm welcome drinks from the attendant, everything was excellent. I also booked the Michelin-starred sushi, and the service there was absolutely superb (just as rumored, though the front desk staff's coldness did detract from the overall service).
**Onsen**: The hot springs were actually quite ordinary. They switch between male and female baths daily, and one time I got to experience the outdoor onsen (which wasn't particularly special either). However, the toiletries were L'Occitane (while the in-room ones were Blagvia), and I really loved the scent! The staff member I encountered also enthusiastically shared their own photos and videos of Mount Yotei and the sunrise, which were fantastic!
GGuest UserRoom quite small even though they indicated 20msq. No space to put luggage, have to put on chair. Hotel indicated provided bicycle rental but when I check with them , they say only in summer time. Ask me to go Furano station to rent bicycles. But the bed is very comfortable.
JJanice Lim Mee LanThe hotel has a very immersive experience especially for families with young children. It is themed like the Asahiyama zoo. They also provide free shuttle bus service to the Asahiyama zoo. They have a public bath. Although I did not get to use the facilities, the hotel guests seemed to really enjoy it. It is located near the shopping street and walking distance to the Asahikawa Station. Behind the Asahikawa Station is a beautiful park and you can have lots of instagrammable photos taken there.
GGuest UserThis is a somewhat older, traditional Japanese-style hotel. The lobby boasts grand and beautiful floor-to-ceiling windows with stunning lake views. The lower level offers a wide range of entertainment facilities and good drinks. However, the rooms and facilities are a bit dated. The majority of guests are Japanese families. The restaurant provides excellent lake views. Breakfast and dinner were decent but nothing to write home about. Given the limited dining options around Lake Toya, eating at the hotel is the most hassle-free choice.
AAnonymous UserThe room was clean, warm, and comfortable — perfect for the cold weather in Furano. It’s not a luxury hotel, but it felt cozy and well taken care of, which made the stay relaxing.
The staff were friendly and helpful, and check-in was smooth. The location is convenient if you’re exploring Furano, especially for winter activities. There are convenience stores and restaurants nearby, and getting around the area was pretty easy.
Overall, it’s a simple, comfortable, and good-value place to stay. I’d happily come back again on my next trip to Furano.
