Around Kanemori Red Brick Warehouse × Highly rated Hotel·Ryokan for Onsen and bath

This time we stayed in a special Room with a private open-air bath. The water temperature was comfortable 24 hours a day, the tub was spacious enough for two people to relax, and the cypress wood rim added a warm touch—I think I soaked in it about ten times. We also had three bath towels each, plus a wide towel rack to hang them, which made everything stress-free. One suggestion: I used the open-air bath around 7 a.m., but the direct sunlight was very strong. It would be nice to have something like bamboo blinds to block the sun. We also used the large public bath, and as with other Kyoritsu Resort properties such as Dormy Inn, it had plenty of washing space and was easy to use. And when it comes to Kyoritsu Resort, there’s the late-night ramen service. Since this is Hakodate, they offer salt ramen in addition to soy sauce ramen. We expected breakfast—known for being popular—to involve waiting in line, but thanks to the special Room privileges they reserved our preferred seating (such as semi-private booths or window seats) at a designated time. That was great. Of course, the meal selection lived up to its reputation. All drinks in the Room were free—including whisky—and there was also a sparkling water maker. Overall it was excellent. The price is high, but given how well-equipped everything is, we felt it was worth it. We’d love to stay again if possible.

This was my first trip to Hakodate. There is only one direct flight a day from Nagoya, and I was incredibly lucky to get a ticket. Visiting a new place for the first time is so exciting. The Room had huge floor-to-ceiling windows with a panoramic view of Mt. Hakodate. The space was generous, and the bathtub and sink were spacious as well. The lighting switches were thoughtfully placed throughout, making everything very convenient—it was almost too comfortable! Dinner at Kita Jin (booked separately) was also excellent: premium Genghis Khan in a private room, relaxed and delicious. Breakfast was around 8:00, and we were seated right away. We came without much prior knowledge and were amazed by the variety—and even more by the quality of every dish. My spouse and I travel all over the whole country, and this may have been our best breakfast ever. Personally, I loved the eel snack with tea, dim sum, sashimi, chiffon cake, and egg tarts. What stayed with us most from this trip was meeting so many wonderful people in Hakodate: The kind driver with a great smile on the airport limousine bus. At lunchtime at Lucky Pierrot near the station—busy as it was—a female staff member still let us draw an Ichiban Kuji lottery ticket and gave us a pin badge with a big smile. At NIPPONIA Hotel Hakodate Port Town on our first day—a female staff member kindly explained everything and gave us a hand-drawn illustrated map of nearby spots within walking distance. On an evening sightseeing taxi tour to see Mt. Hakodate’s night view—a female driver born in Hakodate from Donan Taxi carefully explained local history, the Western-style houses in Motomachi, and the origins of Soma-tei. The staff who made our motorboat cruise even more enjoyable under clear skies the next day. At lunch near the station at Uni Specialty Shop Yoichiya—a female employee whose attentiveness and refined service truly impressed us. And above all, at Century Marina’s front desk—the female staff member who kindly explained everything for our first stay left a wonderful impression with her polite service; of course, the male staff member at checkout was also outstanding. The quick yet courteous service at Kita Jin was excellent as well—we are truly grateful to have stayed at this Hotel. It was an intense 2-night/3-day trip to Hakodate, but seeing everyone working so hard to make their city shine really moved us—it looked genuinely inspiring. We will definitely come again. I truly fell in love with historic Hakodate from the bottom of my heart!

I stayed here for the first time on my return to Hakodate after a long time, choosing it for its great access and high ratings. It’s conveniently located just steps from Hakodate Station, with the morning market right in front, and I loved the Room, the view, and the bed. The Onsen open-air bath was also wonderful. If you don’t need a lavish breakfast buffet, this Hotel is a great choice. One small point: I unfortunately didn’t like the coffee from the coffee machine in the 17th-floor lounge—it tasted surprisingly strong. Have the staff tried it? The lounge atmosphere is very nice, but I couldn’t fully relax there. It might be nice to have some refreshing drinks available after bathing. Tea bags for drinking in the Room were available near the elevators, but I would have appreciated drip coffee as well.

I stayed for two nights on my first trip to Hakodate. The view was amazing, and everything—from the service to the Room—was excellent. The Hotel also offers loaner bicycles, and there are plenty of car rentals and convenience stores nearby. It’s also within walking distance of the station. There’s a morning market just a short walk away, so I had breakfast there. When I arrived in heavy rain, they immediately lent me a towel, which really warmed my heart. Even though I went in and out several times a day, the staff always greeted me with a smile, saying “Have a nice day” and “Welcome back.” I never had to wait for the elevator, which made my stay very comfortable. The Room was spotless as well. This is a Hotel I’d definitely want to stay at again on my next trip. Thank you very much!

I stayed for five nights and was able to relax in the Onsen. I love the atmosphere of Hakodate and visit a few times a year. I used to regularly stay at S or R near the warehouse district, but after trying this Hotel, I found it very reasonably priced and the breakfast (both Japanese and Western) was excellent. The staff were also very kind, which made me feel at ease. The large public bath has free-flowing natural hot spring water, and there is also a sauna—no wonder it’s becoming so popular. I will be staying again from October 4th to 8th.

Above all, the location is excellent. The Red Brick Warehouses are just nearby. You can walk to the Mt. Hakodate Ropeway station, and it’s also a quick taxi ride. There is Ramen Ajisai right in front of the entrance. The bath was clean, and the hair dryers included Panasonic and Dyson. We were also able to try out different shampoo and conditioner. After the bath, there were probiotic drinks and ice pops. We enjoyed salmon roe at breakfast and were very satisfied. My husband especially enjoyed the desserts. We’d love to stay again.

This was my first stay, and I stayed in a wonderful Room renovated from a warehouse, where I could enjoy a Scandinavian atmosphere. Breakfast was also very stylish—cheese, bread, soup, and fruit—and I really enjoyed it. During my stay, the Hakodate fireworks festival happened to be on, so I was able to enjoy both the night sky and the night view of Hakodate. Over two days, I also went golfing during the daytime; it’s about 30–40 minutes from the Hotel, so I felt it’s perfect for a sightseeing + golf trip as well. All of the Hotel staff were very kind and attentive, and I truly appreciate all the explanations and advice they provided. I would definitely like to stay again.

With only a few Rooms, it is quiet and offers a private atmosphere, making it ideal for guests who want to relax. The staff are very courteous, and the service is attentive. The meals featured plenty of delicious ingredients from Hakodate. It is conveniently located with easy access to buses and streetcars for getting around. We stayed in a Junior Suite Room, and our family was able to enjoy a comfortable, relaxing stay.

Thank you for hosting us for two nights. The entire property, including the Room, was thoroughly cleaned, and we had a very comfortable stay. We also enjoyed the breakfast; it offered a wide variety of delicious options, and we were very satisfied. When we visit Hakodate again, we would definitely like to stay here again.

The stylish interior in this historic building was wonderful! The Hotel had a great atmosphere that truly reflects its heritage. All the staff were very friendly and pleasant. The shower was incredibly cool! (LOL) The location is also perfect—right in the heart of the sightseeing area with excellent access. Lucky Pierrot and Hasegawa Store are right next door, Kanemori Red Brick Warehouses are just nearby, and Mt. Hakodate is only a short walk away—nothing to complain about. I’d definitely like to stay here again if I have the chance.

After reading the Reviews, I wasn’t sure whether to choose the Main Building or the West Building, but I’m glad I chose the Main Building because getting to the baths and meals was smooth and convenient. The Room has been renovated, and it was great that the toilet is separate. The soundproofing is also solid, and everything feels clean. Even during Obon, we were able to have breakfast without any waiting time. You can also check how crowded it is from your Room—this really is a wonderful long-established Hotel. I appreciate all the efforts being made here, and I would love to stay again.

After a tiring train journey, it was a big help that the hotel was right in front of the station. Since I booked the Room-assigned Plan, I was nervous when I went in, but it turned out to be a twin Room, so it felt spacious and not cramped like a single—really great. I’d like to stay again next year.

I stayed for two nights with my daughter. All of the front desk staff were very friendly, making our stay comfortable. The location is great, and with welcome drinks and laundry facilities (free of charge), the value for money is excellent. I would definitely stay here again when visiting Hakodate.

The location is excellent, right next to Sapporo Station. There are convenience stores nearby, as well as the morning market and easy access to buses and trains. The breakfast buffet is outstanding. The staff were courteous and left a great impression.

The day before my stay, I noticed a mistake in my Reservation and contacted them. They responded politely, explained any additional charges, and I was able to stay without any issues. The cleaning staff also greeted me with a smile, which made it a wonderful trip. I would like to stay again!

Cleanliness: Good! Both the Hotel and Room were very clean. Pet Supplies: Good! Provided items included a cage, training sheets, and small toys. Room Convenience: Good! The Room is equipped with essentials like a microwave, induction cooker, and tableware. You can also enjoy takeout meals from nearby stores in your Room. Location: Close to the station, with seafood restaurants, Hasegawa Store (Hasesuto), and Lucky Pierrot within walking distance. Suggestion: To make better use of space in the Room, I understand the current setup; however, a slightly larger table would have been even better. Overall Value for Money: Excellent Hotel!

This was the best of the three Hotels I stayed at during my 3-night, 4-day trip to Hakodate. There was a drink bar, the Room was clean, and they kindly stored my luggage before check-in. There are nearby options like Seicomart and McDonald’s, and the tram stop is close; I also think Hakodate Station is within walking distance. I would like to stay here again.

The staff were very helpful. I would definitely like to stay here again if I have the opportunity.

We stayed here for a family trip. The Room was very clean and comfortable. Since our family tends to feel hot, the Room was warm even in mid-May, and the air conditioning was not yet available due to the system settings. However, a staff member suggested opening the window to let in cooler air, and it worked—we were able to spend a comfortable night. Breakfast was automatically included, and everything was delicious. It was especially helpful on a busy morning when we really needed it.

The room lighting can be comfortably adjusted with spotlights, which was great. There are plenty of power outlets, and the long, narrow desk is also convenient. The lounge drinks and breakfast are very well stocked, and access to the streetcar is excellent. There are also many appealing shops nearby, which was a plus.
