During this trip to Higashisanko, Hokkaido, I wanted to find a hotel with a hot spring in the room and a view, so I chose to stay here. The room type I stayed in was the Tenzaza. The space was very spacious. …

So-called hot spring hotelThe rooms are comfortable and the service is attentive and in accordance with the manual.Cooking and bathing are extremely ordinary.

A hot spring resort worth visiting again and again!There is a 24-hour constant-temperature hot spring in the room. You can take a dip anytime you want. It is really convenient.My favorite room is that there are two toilets attached. It’s such a thoughtful design.There is a massage chair in the room. After soaking in the hot spring, you can sit on the massage chair and have a massage. It is really comfortable!There are public hot springs on the sixth and seventh floors. Boys and girls rotate at different times, and free milk is provided. The semi-open-air hot spring on the seventh floor is worth a dip!

Be prepared for some expense 💰But it will always remain in my memorieswelcome drinkfireworks depending on the seasonOf course I am satisfied with the room.There are differences between the mountain side and the lake side.100,000 yen for 2 people if it is not in seasonSeason➕It's better to see more than 200,000 depending on the roomNowadays, the number of open-air baths in guest rooms is increasing.Hina-no-za, which has been around for a long time, is special.There is also a bath on the upper floor 🥛 Milk is recommendedAs a precaution, if you had small children with you at the time, you could not enter.I was alone... but it was quiet and relaxing.Is this due to the accommodation's consideration?Pre-marital travel, couples traveling after their children leave the nest, etc.Aside from the purposeSatisfied.For meals, you can choose the buffet in the annex, which is cheaper. I highly recommend eating at Hina no Za.

Fourth visit because I was enthralled by my previous visits! I’ve visited the Tsuruga properties in Hokkaido and I think the standard is pretty high throughout!This trip left me wondering if the direction has changed though. Unfortunately the only stand out was the bar service by kobayashi san. Great bespoke cocktails that were to die for.My gripe is I couldn’t help feeling like I was chased out of dinner. All other times I felt like I was dining at home, but this time I felt like I was on someone else’s schedule. Dinner times were 17:30 or 18:00 and we were kinda expected to clear by 19:00, and told we should carry on at the bar which began at 20:30.Otherwise the property speaks for itself. Stellar in all aspects.

Stayed at the hotel for three nights. The lake was fine should weather permit, but lacks adventurous activities. …
