Hotels near Asahi Observation Platform, Otaru

"Excellent minimalist hotel that looks modern. It is conveniently located along the shopping street of Otaru and a stone’s throw to the famous Otaru canal, a short but scenic view of the town."

"We booked a room with twin beds hoping it is bigger and allows us to open two large luggages. The room is very clean and modern. The staff is very polit and my room has a very nice view. It is very convenient and just around 10 mins walk to the cancel and shopping street and many restaurants around. As we were too tired so didn’t use its public bath but they offer coffee in day time which is good. In fact, what surprised me was the breakfast. Though it is a buffet in a small area, but it has enough variety, with many local food and delicious. Just think it would be even better if the room can be maintained better as the furniture got some dated signs."

"Hotel Nord Otaru is just next to Otaru Canal, very convenient location. Especially wanted to choose this lovely hotel which I stayed 10 years ago in year 2015 with my family of 5 person. Booked to stay 3 nights in 2 rooms,one with Otaru Canal view and another with city view. Breakfast is considered good and satisfactory, with snowy canal view.Although is an old classic hotel but is nostalgic to me, clean and well-maintained. Staff service is good but please note one of my room somehow came with no cleaning room service,additional charge 500 yen per day to clean it. For my another room that has daily room cleaning service, just make sure remember to place outside the door knob, the hanging door card requiring room cleaning,else they will not clean.All is clearly explained by staff and also stated in a note given on the day when you checked into your room. Overall, I am happy with the stay and will come back same hotel again."

"The hotel has very new and good Onsen on the first floor and can walk from Snow fall in to the Onsen Building"

"The stay was great, the staff were friendly and welcoming. Loved the lobby vibes, slightly grand yet cosy. The rooms were well equipped and bed were firm and comfy especially for those with back problems. Breakfast was a gd spread. Also I misplaced my iPad and the team was very helpful in retrieving it for me. Would definitely return when I visit Otaru again."

"Interesting, so it’s a mini hike up from the Main Street and very close to station and market."

"OMG! This was the first thing we said as soon as we entered the room. It’s so spacious and comfortable. The pictures don't lie! Everything was perfect, and the location is ideal, being so close to the train station. We absolutely love list apartment style. *chef’s kiss*"

"Room is clean and spacious with superl convenient location. Daily amenities are sufficient and supplied too!"

"Classy hotel with free wine for hotel guests and if you want some classy cocktails or good selections of whiskies, it’s just by the entrance. The breakfast is fantastic too. Lots of homemade goodness and delicious scones too."

"Very good location near to the Otaru canal and very cozy and warm ambience. Love the public bath and the bar on the top floor which I check in every day. I will definitely come back."
