Hotels near Ginsendai in Kamikawa

For an old hotel, it was quite nice. The room was a twin bedroom, and two beds were placed on the tatami mats. The hot spring was large and there was an open-air bath, which was very nice. Dinner is a plan with steak, and since it is originally a buffet, you can eat all you can eat other than steak. I'm full. For breakfast, there are both Japanese and Western dishes. It was a tourist hotel. It's close to Sounkyo, so I think the location is good.

I came here advised by the staff at my hostel, looking for a tattoo-friendly onsen. This is a large, fancy resort and I don't deny I felt a little out of place at first 😁 The place is super nice, yet the entrance (without towel fee) is only 1000 yen, or 800 if you have the discount coupon from the hostel, which is conveniently next door. I have very large, very visible tattoos (including on my arms, legs and neck) and I was allowed entrance without any issues, although in some of the bath areas there are signs that say ”No tattooes”, which I figure must be old. There are a few different pools, both indoor and outdoor, including an open-air bath on the 7th floor, overlooking the magnificent mountains and gorge. I was the only foreigner and the only person with tattoos. I'm so stoked I could experience such a place, definitely worth visiting if you have tattoos and are in the Daisetsuzan area!

Far more than expected, I thought that this cheap hotel for foreigners would be very poor (because there is no information on it on the official website of Sounkyo), and it is actually very satisfied! The hotel is very old, but the cleaning is very clean, the price is bigger than expected, and the use is more convenient. Catering is also very good, at this price, the price is very high, crab legs and salmon to eat! Very close to the bus stop and the shopping street. The only dissatisfaction is that Ishikagawa is on the edge of the hotel, and the sound of the water is louder at night.

The location is very good, just opposite the visitor center and the Blackey Ropeway. It is best for climbing. It takes 3 minutes to drive to Hongye Valley and drive to the popular waterfall and Galaxy Waterfall for about 5 minutes. It is very convenient. Morning and evening meals are good, especially at night, the buffet is very good, Japanese sake shochu whisky has, you can also make cocktails. The hot spring is small but of good quality. It is known as the only natural hot spring in Sounkyo. It’s okay to bring a child, three mattresses and four people sleep enough. The overall catch is that the entire layer of Yunyun Gorge (not only this 🏨) style is more old-fashioned, mainly for middle-aged tourists and hikers, feeling more dull. The restaurant waiter also has a nepal brother who has good English and a good service attitude.

We wanted to hike to Mt. Asahidake during the Koyo (Fall foliage) season, and among the properties at the base of the mountain, La Vista Daisetsuzan appeared to be the highest end accommodation in the area. Both the outside and inside of the lodge are charming and rustic in appearance, but are definitely showing clear signs of age and wear. In fact, while taking a dip in the communal Onsen (natural hot springs) bath, I overheard two men remarking how the place was ”boro boro” (Japanese for ”really worn down.”) Thankfully, we were relieved to find that La Vista Daisetsuzan was at least quite clean, and did not exhibit the old, moldy smell that is commonplace in older properties. And the dining room seems to have been renovated - we enjoyed our dinner here (more on that in a moment.) We stayed in their ”Luxury Room,” the highest category unit that was a relatively spacious 56m² open-plan Junior Suite. Other rooms on premises are quite a bit smaller, but people used to staying in standard rooms at Marriott-class properties will be more than satisfied with these room types. La Vista Daisetsuzan has a communal, gender-segregated Onsen on site - there is both an indoor and open-air outdoor bath, which is appreciated, especially in the Winter months, given that you'll want to warm up in the indoor bath before jumping into the outdoor one. While we did not have breakfast at the property (we wanted to get an early start on our hike, and we're glad that we did - the sky is more clear and there are less crowds), we had the French-Japanese dinner. To say that the meal exceeded our expectations would be an understatement. We're in Hokkaido, and an hour from the nearest city (Asahikawa), yet every dish was creative, beautifully presented and a feast for the eyes and palate. Everything - from the tuna tartare to the mini quiche to the Foie Gras to the al dente pasta with mushrooms and broccoli - was a highlight. The only serving that did not hit the spot was the main (ocean-) fish dish. The fish was hard and dry - when you're in the center of Hokkaido, perhaps they should focus on other ingredients, or at least serve fish that are fine frozen (like Tuna) or that come from the nearby rivers or lakes. Overall, if we were to make a return trip to the area, we would be more than fine with staying again at La Vista Daisetsuzan. In no way is this a destination unto itself, but if our short but pleasant stay is any indication, it's a very solid higher-end option in Daisetsuzan. It definitely blows away the vast majority of lodges in U.S. National Parks, that's for sure!

It was a good quality of food and a warm hospitality inn

Accommodation for family. The meal is a better impression than the price in the morning and evening. It is a large bath, but because of the day trip OK, locals and camping cottages continue 々 night １０, so you can't slow down if you don't come out early in the morning because you come to take a bath. It's a public inn, so it's not possible, but if you care about the local people, it's better to make the cost of bathing in several private rooms to make a bath for the guests. At night ８ I was a little joking with my child at the time, and I complained and the front desk came at ８ halftime. I didn't visit to confirm early time of family accommodation for consecutive holidays. One-sided point. I ran around in a slower time, but I didn't point out that there was no revisit.

A long-established inn ”Yukomaso” of Asahidake Onsen and the Association to Protect Secret Hot Springs. I booked a twin room in the renewed main building. It is sold that there are 5 source baths just to be named Yumoto, but because the facilities are old, there is no clean feeling, and I didn't want to soak in the open-air bath and the indoor bath slowly. Supper is a creative dish ”Yusuzen”. I was a little surprised that biscisowers came out in a vessel that suddenly hollowed out Yubari melon! The sashimi and sashimi are not bad. However, the next awakening croquette of the inca came out with the bag and there was no plate to eat by hand. Next, spring water jelly with chopsticks resting, boiled in white wine of tomatoes. There will be no course setting where things like water confectionery continue. Isn't sweet tomato conport good after meals? The main dish is Japanese black beef soup stock shabu-shabu, which doesn't go well with soup stock and beef. The last sweetness is white coffee pudding with a bottle! It came out. At breakfast, I recommended ”* kake rice with smoked soy sauce”, so I tried it, but the soy sauce was sweet and it didn't taste good. The room is clean and looks modern at first glance, but when you sit on the sofa on the wall, you can't see it in parallel with the TV on the wall. The bed was uncomfortable with a soft urethane mat. I was expecting it because it looks like a popular inn, but the hot springs, food and rooms left a pretty disappointing impression.

A log house located next door to Asahiyama Zoo

It is a place within walking distance from Nagayama Station. There are few places to eat near the hotel, so if you want to get off at Asahikawa Station, you should eat near Asahikawa Station. It was dinner at the other valve near the hotel. Wi-Fi was different for each floor, and I thought that the room would be enough for one person. Check-out is completed by returning to the key reception at the front desk ◯
