Will stay again. The hotel itself was well maintained. The room was clean and everything functioned properly. Our Japanese-style room had only a toilet, so we had to use the public bath instead. The onsen was very large and well-equipped. Large sauna and outdoor bath with a great view outside. Both dinner and breakfast were buffet style with the good quality considering the price. There were no exotic dishes but most of the menus tasted good and they offered many kinds of soft drinks.

Dated Ryokan and buffet dinne and breakfast were so bad. Sashimi was cutted to small pieces like for salad bowl. No sushi at all. Service was not great too. But onsen was big with massage chair in onsen lounge. Room has no shower area and access area are a bit dim.

Room Tip: If you go for food, don't go. But if you don't mind the food the onsen is fantastic.

I guess we went during a lull period in December, so it was somewhat quiet, though there were a couple tour groups from Taiwan or China. The hotel had a nice large lobby, and the staff were nice but their English was not strong. Our room was small but cosy. The Onzen was large and well provided with amenities. There were 3 indoor baths, a jacuzzi and an outdoor bath for the men. The buffet dinner had a large spread as did the breakfast. We took a bus from Sapporo station. We made the mistake of not taking the Express bus because it needed online reservations, so it was longer, about 75 minutes for about 790Yen. There is also a shuttle from the hotel but that also required reservations too. But the Jozankei Yu no Machi bus stop is right outside the ryokan so very convenient. See the Shikanoyu Hotel website for more specifics. Recommended.…

The hotel is quite large compared to the other traditional hot spring hotel. The room is large, with Japanese tatami sitting area and western style bed. The room is very tidy and neat. The breakfast and dinner is buffet style, with lots variety from sashimi, tempura, noodles, curry .. etc. and they are all very fresh and delicious too. The onsen is large, includes both indoor and outdoor pool. Though there are group tours living here, but it is not too crowded. Overall this hotel is quite good.

The rooms are traditional style and comfortable and quite large! Also, the common Japanese bath is very large, with all the amenities you may need and with different zones: outdoors and indoors, foot massage pebbles, cold bath, bubble bath, different high temperature baths, etc. The dining area is also very big and with a lot of different food for supper and breakfast! I also has ping-pong, games room, etc. But... I think the hotel needs a renovation, specially the bathroom in the room and the common bath. Not for the apperance, that looks a little old-fashioned, but for the condition of the bathtub and the sink in our room, the tiles in the baths, etc. Although, we had a good experience.

Not so high expectations based on previous reviews on several trip sites, the public space was all renewed and clean, the room was quite space with 4 beds and one tatami space so that 5-6 people can stay in one room. We chose foods with fixed courses in a large tatami room and it was awesome. Hot spring was large but a bit old still enjoyable.

Good . Location is good, right in the middle of the town, easy to walk everywhere. . The lobby has a very nice lounge area with complimentary coffee at certain times of the day and also a place to indulge in classical music. Very very nice. . The onsen is nicely organised, a few pools : 39degC, 42degC, outdoor 42degC area, and a jacuzzi. Can be better . The buffet dinner and breakfast is average. . We were first given room 352, which had 2 problems, the door opens out to the roof like area (but guests are disallowed from walking out) which means that one may not want to keep the sliding door open for ventilation, and also the shower and bathtub were choked. We were later changed to room 951, much better.

Good experience there, hot spring open all night, you can have a relax time there or walking near river after dinner which is provided before 21:00, but you have to check in before 19:30. Massage chair for free!

Centrally located, clean rooms (but for the annoying smell of cigarette smoke), nice buffet spreads of Japanese food for dinner and breakfast plus a big indoor and outdoor hotsprings with great views. It's got all bases covered (except for the stench of burnt tobacco in the room). I would come back to this comfortable place.

A hotel is quite big and convenient. If you like onsen bath, this hotel is a great one. Both dinner and breakfast is ok. I choose to have buffet dinner and breakfast. However, hotel also provide Japanese style restaurant. The room are clean, neat and very large.
