Beautiful hotel and comfortable stay

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 19 Jul 2019
We stayed in a Japanese Family Room in the East Wing (renovated and re-opened in Sep 2018). This is a pure Japanese-style room with 3 beds on Ryukyu tatami mat. An additional futon bed can be added too, hence it’s perfect for a family of 3 or 4. The room comes with a bathtub, humidifier and coffee machine. In general, the room is very clean and comfortable.

Hakodate Kokusai Hotel is 700m away from the JR station (~8 mins walk). Hakodate Morning Market, JR station, Red Brick Warehouse and Bay Area are all within walking distance. There's also a tram stop 3 mins walk from the hotel.

As other reviewers have mentioned, the buffet breakfast is fantastic. Love the seafood rice bowl. There's a wide variety of Japanese and Western food. The staffs are friendly and nice. We had an awesome stay here!
Date of stay: June 2019
Room Tip: Main Tower was newly constructed in Dec 2018. East Wing is the oldest, but it has been renovated...

When we first checked into our standard double room we felt claustrophobic. But even worse, the carpet was very stained. We asked for a new room and were given a more spacious room with a better view, but the carpet still needed some cleaning. The hotel is quite grand in scale but it certainly looks like it has seen better days.

The room was very good, lots of space and very clean. The breakfast buffet offered a great variety of both japanese and western foods which were excellent. Service was impeccable and the rooms very clean.

Room tip: Great location near lots of tourist attractions and the Morning Fish Market.

This is a satisfactory hotel of the international variety. The room we had was an ample size, with a great view over the bay towards the mountains. The Wi-Fi was good and we found enough power points to satisfy our requirements. Staff were very helpful. The breakfast buffet was very large and offered a wide range of foodstuffs. I also enjoyed the Level 8 bar at night. It’s in a harbour area away from the city proper but there is a seven-eleven nearby.

This hotel is well located by the bay for walking access to the red brick "warehouse" stores and small restaurants and also to the morning seafood market place. The accompanying picture is deceptive and the hotel is very large and roomy; the east wing apparently was the older building but remodeled recently with nice upgrades. The buffet breakfast was very good. To access the top floor onsen, you need to tap the elevator button with your door card.

Not much activities within the hotel, even the evening Bingo game was cancelled. Buffet style dinner hall is large and comfortable. However, the selection was not average. Me and wife list the beef, small steamboat and fish soup being the best. Desert is quite limited. Being famous of the dairy milk product, l thought the ice cream must be better.

There is a small provision store just behind the reception counter and it allow tasting for its tit bits.
Room are comfortable with tatami style sleeping. Toilet is small as expected.

Cheers.

I hope you enjoyed your visit to Hokkaido. Unfortunately, our hotel does not have a bingo game or a buffet dinner.
However, our chef’s signature dishes can be enjoyed for breakfast and dinner.
I hope you consider choosing us the next time you come to our neighborhood. All of our staff look forward to seeing you.
Sincerely, Kazumi Sasaki, General Manager, Hakodate Kokusai Hotel
