The structure is new, clean and pleasant. The car parking is free and conveniently placed, just in front of the entrance. The staff at the desk welcomed us with warmth and happy faces. The room itself was spatious and warm. The bathroom perfectly clean. I've particularly appreciated the lights they have choosen for the room: not too strong, not too weak. The futons were confy and the breakfast very good.

I love thé location and pricing. I also love their Onsen on the top floor that gives the feeling of upper class. I love thé access to AEON supermarket so we don’t have to dine out expensively. The lobby area is also huge and accessible with lots of free toiletry and access to things we need. There are also different access entrances for people to walk across the block to get to different bus stands so it was very convenient in the snowy winter. The staffs were very friendly and despite not perfect with their English they understood everything I said and were very eager to help. The cleaning staff were plenty so there are a few of them all working like an efficient team going through floor by floor quite quickly.

Everything!5 min walk to the ropeway station, beautiful marshland just few minutes away, but the best part was the hotel itself. Staff was amazing, everyone was just lovely and bright. love the onsen and food wad just next level superb. Love it a lot. Stayed in few La Vista now and definitely will choose this brand in the future. I had amazing, relaxing time. Thank you a lot! Actually, I think the photo on booking.com don't give a justice to the size of the room. I booked the single one and it was definitely larger than I expected so that's was a bonus.

Checking in was easy. The staff’s English was excellent, at the end of the stay I had misplaced the parking receipt from the beginning of the stay. The front desk staff physically walked out to the parking lot we used and called the parking company to let us out. She went above and beyond the customer courtesy I could have possibly asked for and let us out of the lot with no additional fees and was so polite even though it was clearly our mistake. The staff is amazing!

The room is large and the beds are comfortable. The onsen is absolutely beautiful. I am vegetarian and the staff were absolutely wonderful in dealing with my dietary restrictions for breakfast. I was severed a delicious tofu fish each morning instead of bacon and eggs! I was so appreciative and they truly went above and beyond. Very happy with the service, the room and the entire stay.

We loved Asahikawa, a very fun little city with a huge variety of bars and restaurants, easy access to local ski resorts, lots to see and do, and just a really fun, friendly vibe. Was a nice change after the hectic pace of Niseko. We will return next year and give ourselves a bit more time to have a really good look around (could do with 7 nights - our stay was 4 nights). Enjoyed the bonus of the winter festival being on during our stay, with spectacular ice sculptures the whole length of the main street, plus a big festival zone with activities, a huge ice stage, and dozens of food vans. We will be back for sure.

It was unexpectedly great!

It was unexpectedly great! It was a quaint little town with lots of restaurants and little shops to explore. If you have a car, you can travel beyond the 5 km range for more touristy spots, but just having a bike means you can already explore a cheese factory, go up the cable car, a nearby winery, a horse riding school and a couple of flower farms. So, it's a great place for people who cannot get hold of a rental car. It's accessible via the JR line from the New Chitose Airport, which makes this place a good stopping point for a bit of nature and culture. I stayed for 2 nights, and could have stayed longer while enjoying the changing season.

I stayed in Sounkyo from 8-11th March 2024.

I stayed in Sounkyo from 8-11th March 2024. Sounkyo is a very picturesque small town. There are Sika deer that come into the town center to eat! The Sounkyo Gorge is impressive with mount Kurodake toweing over the Gorge. Take the Daisetsuzan Sōunkyō Kurodake Ropeway and on a good day you can see a 360 degree panorama of the Daisetuzan mountain range. There is a very good Visitors Center in Sounkyo with very friendly and helpful staff. One of the staff took me on a walk through the deep new powder snow which had fallen the night before. The lady took me just because she loved that area and was pleased I was interested in finding walks to explore. I would love to come here again in the summer and Autumn to see the changing seasons.

Travel books and blogs talk of Biei's famous Blue Pond, Shiragano Waterfalls, Takushinkan, various famous trees and observatories. But Biei is much more than that. It is a perfect scenic, serene getaway from busy city life. You don't actually need to plan and follow your itinerary to the point. Just roam around, whether on bicycles or in a rented car. Soak in the brisk air. Fumble into random cafes and restaurants. Biei is just so humble and modest, and yet very satisfying.

I went to Wakkanai for two purposes.

I went to Wakkanai for two purposes. I wanted to see Cape Soya - the northernmost point in Japan. I ended up taking a taxi to get there which wasn't cheap. I also wanted to ride the train the entire length of Hokkaido and Wakkanai was the starting point. Unfortunately Wakkanai seems to be an economically depressed town.

We were there on 3rd week of Sep 2023 but somehow perhaps due to climate change, the autumn leaves didn’t feature . So I would recommend 1st week of October to visit. Regardless the Asahidake Ropeway did offer great views and the Sugatame Pond trap walk was most enjoyable with good views.

Nayoro was a pleasant, quiet town.

Nayoro was a pleasant, quiet town. I was only there for 2 full days and I definitely wish I had stayed longer! Cafe Now has excellent service and great cold refreshments for the heat. Sun Pillar Park Nissin was beautiful! The sunflowers were unfortunately not open, but the rest of the park is stunning too. The Brazil Bakery is a must visit too! It is closely located near the station and stocked with delicious Nayoro baked goods. The staff in all the stores were friendly and helpful. I had an amazing time!

Stay in Kami-furano for fast access to the Tokachi Mountain Range in Daisetsuzan National Park, whether for hiking or for backcountry skiing or snowboarding. The town also has a good selection of restaurants; we only tried one during our stay, but it was excellent and reasonably priced.

Loved the smaller village vibe.

Loved the smaller village vibe. As my second trip to japan i was intentionally trying to escape the tourist areas and english speakers / english content. Finally found it in Asahikawa. It's the size of city where you still have services not the best and presence of other languages really starts to fall off. The ice festival was clearly the main attraction here and i mis timed my stay not staying over the weekend when it really kicks off. The zoo is the other main attraction with very little english content and a fun penguin walk, though i had a very busy crowd when i went. There are a lot of museums though none, that interested me but it's not my cup of tea. So to each their own. The commercial street had tons of decoration for the festival which was super fun as well as an ice sculpting competition which i also missed 😅. Transport is well supplied in terms of access. Being a smaller town though, schedules start to be important to plan. You might get more chances around rush hour but outside of that you may end up waiting an hour if you miss that bus / train. I was only there a couple of days, but loved the vibe and ambiance. Much less touristy, less to do obviously, more rural and much closer to japanese culture. I crossed a fox, proof wildlife still exists in this town. Hopefully this doesn't frighten anyone, we live in a world with wildlife. Nothing made me happier than seeing this in the evening with beautiful fluffy falling snow. For me it's right up there as a highlight of my trip, right next to Niseko United for less than 20% of the price.
