Even though it's a three-day holiday, how about 23,800 yen for a 16 square meter bed with a width of 102 cm and no meals? Inbound price? The hotel's plan details say, ``Relax in our spacious rooms and beds,'' which is a bit of black humor.

Before the redevelopment of the area in front of the station, it was a dilapidated two-story wooden inn.Even with the current facility, the warm atmosphere has not changed, and the best time was when there was a lavish breakfast and a convenience store on the first floor. Every time I stayed there, I would run into the staff of the group medical examination bus at the buffet venue.About 10 years ago, the management changed and I stopped visiting for a while, but the good location and convenience of having a large public bath are still attractive.

I stayed for one night on a business trip and fell in love with the comfort, the softness of the staff, and the convenience of recessed storage, so I ended up staying multiple nights there. I don't ask for meals every time, but as the name suggests, it's right in front of the station, and there are restaurants, supermarkets, and drugstores nearby, so there's no inconvenience. Many of the guests are quiet, so this is a hotel that is not suitable for people of the Weird type.

The room was large, even for a single, like a hotel in Hokkaido, but the smell of cigarettes spread to the elevator and the changing room of the public bath, which was terrible. …

Close to the station, close to convenience stores, close to restaurants, baths (men's and women's rooms depending on the time), Japanese-style rooms available, very compact and easy to use.Although I checked in late, I was treated with courtesy.I would like to apologize for one thing.It was a Japanese-style room, but there were a few hairs falling down. I thought it had not been vacuumed or swept. I wanted to make this my permanent home in Hakodate. It was a place that fulfilled all of my wishes. I wish it were possible. I wanted the lights in the hallway to be turned off after the guests left. Thank you for your help.

As the name suggests, there is a flat parking lot in front of Hakodate Station, which is very convenient.I think it's on the older side in front of the station where there are many new hotels, but the room was clean and the staff was very helpful.

Used alone.It was nice to have a parking lot and a large public bath where you could stretch your arms and legs.It's also close to the station so it's a good base.

A small hotel near the station. It's probably been around for a while, but it doesn't feel that old. However, the digital clock that came with the bed was broken.

Although the room is small, it is clean. It is very close to Hakodate Station, the morning market, and Daimon Yokocho. The breakfast is delicious and rich. Highly recommended.

I'm sorry 🙇⤵️ To be honest, I didn't have high expectations since it's not a very famous hotel, but the room was clean and didn't smell like cigarettes even though it was a smoking room.Although the public bath wasn't big, it was clean and the shower pressure was good. It was nice and even had a sauna. To be honest, my partner said that women's bath time is too short⤵️😣😅I'm satisfied😊

90 seconds walk to Hakodate Station ♪ Convenience store downstairs ♪ A homely business hotel ♪I suddenly came to the wake by JR, so this place is near the station (1 minute walk).Thank you to [Hakodate Hotel Ekimae] for your help. .Although it is a small hotel, the service was flexible and very kind.The room was a Japanese-style room, but it had the calmness of a ryokan and I felt relaxed.There was also a bathroom on the second floor, but I was busy so I didn't have time to use it.Well, breakfast with a slight hangover. . .I had it at the restaurant on the second floor, and it was an orthodox breakfast menu♪I think it would be very useful for business.The atmosphere was similar to the hotel I used to stay in when I used to come to Hakodate on business, so I felt at ease♪There is also a convenience store on the first floor of the hotel, which is very convenient.I'd like to use it next time I come for work.

There is a male staff very helpful and speaks great English, great for anyone simply looking for a room to stay, nothing fancy needed. WiFi is weak on the end room though.

The location is good, and the large communal bath has hot water, so it's even better if it's a hot spring!

As the name suggests, it is located right next to Hakodate Station.The exterior of the hotel is old, but the rooms, including the bathrooms, were clean.There is an air purifier and the windows can be opened and closed. Air conditioning is probably an individual type.Wi-Fi is a little slow, but there is wired LAN.The TV is small at 19 inches.From the window, I could see trains arriving and departing from Hakodate Station.Sound insulation is a little low. You can hear the sound of train horns, but it was quiet at night.There is also a large bath and sauna.I thought it was a good hotel with high cost performance compared to surrounding hotels.

Due to the influence of the coronavirus, hotels have opened nearby, and the situation is difficult, but I use it every year. I personally use them because I value peace of mind more than service.
