Hotel Sonia Otaru (Natural Hot Spring Otaru Canal no Yu)

This was my first time sightseeing in Otaru. We stayed at this Hotel right in front of the Otaru Canal. It was a one-night stay for our family of three, and we ate out, so we only needed a place to sleep. The Room felt a bit small, but since we were just sleeping there, it was more than enough and we were satisfied. Next time, I’d like to try the Hotel breakfast.There are many coin-operated parking lots very close to the Hotel, and the rates were much cheaper than in Tokyo. We parked overnight and left the car until checkout while sightseeing around Otaru Station, and it cost 800 yen for 24 hours. There were coin parking lots around 800–1,200 yen.The Hotel Facility was clean, with a calm lobby atmosphere as well—we were very satisfied. Amenities such as face wash, cleansing products, and skincare items were available on the first floor.I’d like to stay here again when traveling to the Otaru area. Thank you very much to all the staff members.

Facing the Otaru Canal, we enjoyed the canal’s night view from the Hotel window.The Room also had a classic, relaxing atmosphere, which was great.The air conditioning was too strong and it was cold, but the staff promptly brought a blanket to our Room.Thank you.
