OMO5 Hakodate by Hoshino Resorts

The room and the bath were great, nice view of the city from our room, right next to the station. Staff were very friendly and they offer a shuttle bus around the city and select times, you just have to book. Check in was smooth and seamless. On site laundry is super helpful, cashless though and you have to do it by your phone and a QR code. A microwave and a vending machine. There's also a shop with some local foods, twas and gifts. Breakfast is quite seafood heavy which is to be expected given that's what Hakodate is known for. That being said I was able to have a hearty breakfast in the morning.

Exceptional breakfast buffet (sweet shrimp, sashimi scallop and salmon for DIY kaisendons) Onsen was a great bonus, the kids loved the common area on Level 2. Staff were friendly, rooms were very clean. It was probably the best hotel we stayed at during our 6 weeks in Japan.

The included Onsen was great. The location was good too, being close to JR Hakodate. It’s also close to the morning seafood market. The buffet breakfast included was perfect.

Free shuttle! Osen is nice! And love their facilities. Hotel staff are very friendly and helpful, feel warm during the stay

A typical reasonable Japanese hotel. However a big thumbs-up for having (local) champagne at the breakfast buffet
