OMO5 Hakodate by Hoshino Resorts

- Convenient location, only about 3 minutes walk from Hakodate Station and next to huge MaxValu grocery store - Free guest-only sightseeing bus that stops at most popular spots in Hakodate - Beautiful OMO Base/lounge, thoughtfully designed to reflect Hakodate’s fishing culture with unique snacks and souvenirs available for purchase - Modern cashless Electrolux laundry machines (6 wash and 6 dryers total on two floors) - separated which is great so dryers don’t take up a washing machine

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.

The hotel is quite close to Hakodate Jr station, only 5 minutes' walk. The staff is very polite and friendly; especially the attitude of the tour guide who led our way to the free seafood market. The onsen is superb, so is the breakfast. You get to make your seafood bowl!

Super nice location, the onsen is epic. Got indoor and outdoor section, it was snowing outside, stay in the onse with snow flakes on your hair ia dreamy. Breakfast is super nice, stuff speaks Japanese, Korean, English and Mandarin chinese, really helpful.

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.
