Oshiro Station × Highly rated Hotel·Ryokan

A wonderful luxury villa quietly nestled in a picture-perfect setting with views of Mt. Komagatake. The king-size bed, plush high-quality towels, and thoughtfully selected amenities had the feel of a top-class hotel, while the refined full kitchen and large refrigerator were very convenient. With carefully planned lighting, appliances, furniture, a fireplace, and high ceilings—true villa touches—it was a beautifully curated place that showed great attention to detail. The in-room hot spring bath had silky water with a high pH—so smooth it almost felt slippery—and it was gentle on the skin and deeply relaxing. There was also a heater next to the towel rack; perhaps another thoughtful touch so towels dry quickly? I did wish there were also a separate spa facility in another building. Dinner BBQ was extremely satisfying, with plenty of carefully chosen meats and seafood ingredients. The jingisukan (grilled lamb) and finishing soup curry were delicious as well. In this season there weren’t many bugs even outdoors, so we could enjoy it while feeling close to nature. We enjoyed the pumpkin dessert back in the room with the provided drip coffee—absolutely satisfying all around. The large wall-mounted TV in the room was easy to watch, and when the connection acted up, staff came right away to fix it for us. Breakfast was also a full Western-style meal, and everything tasted great. The welcome drink service at the bar in the front building upon arrival had just started recently, but we enjoyed lovely cocktails—it was such a stylish moment that built excitement for our stay along with the view of Mt. Komagatake through the window. I think it’s an excellent idea. I’ve seen comments saying people visit specifically for Angel Grand Villa Hakodate—and I completely agree now. We found an accommodation we can truly recommend; you can really feel how much the staff want to keep improving things here. We’d love to come again. We had a wonderful birthday eve!
