Hotels near Shirogane fudo no taki Falls, Biei

A homestay run by the two couples is clean and tidy. The room has a bathroom, but the bath has to go to the first floor. The Western breakfast is good. It is about 3 kilometers away from Meiyi Station. After arriving at Meiyi Station, call the landlord and the landlord will come to pick it up; it will be delivered to the station when you leave. Very good experience, recommended.

There is a kitchen available and the living room is very spacious. It feels like living in your own home. The only pity is that there is no elevator and you need to carry luggage on the second floor🤣 But generally speaking, it is highly recommended. There is also a curry pork chop rice restaurant nearby that is very delicious😋👍

It's a pity that there is no large communal bath, but it's a gem that doesn't cost 10,000 yen with breakfast despite the top season on Saturday, July 8, adjacent to Biei Station ＆ ”Michi no Eki Oka no Kura”. The room is small and simple, and it is glad that the bus toilet is independent. Before Corona, I was able to eat dinner at the １ F restaurant, but the restaurant was still not open. There is a convenience store in front of the station, and there is a 7-Eleven about 5 minutes walk, so I made a delicious dinner with my favorite side dish ･ ingredients and alcohol. It is also good to base Furano sightseeing, Asahikawa sightseeing, and Tokachidake mountain foot sightseeing. You can enjoy all the sightseeing spots with plenty of room for 2 nights.

It was behind BIE station and it was close and nice !! The room was comfortable and the bed sheets and toilets were clean :) The most important thing is that the atmosphere is also very good. Even when I wake up in the morning, it's very quiet and good!! I want to come again~*^*

I normally don’t do places with shared bathrooms by this was the most conveniently located accommodation near the train station. For the price, I was pleasantly surprised by how new it was and that breakfast was offered. I really enjoyed my stay and the English speaking staff. It is simple and the rooms are tight but it is worth it if you’re just trying to see the fields or the famous aoi ike/ blue pond. There is a bus nearby that will go by the pond and other sites. However the schedule is aggressive (only 15 minutes at the pond before the next bus leaves) so I suggest taking a taxi. They charge 7000 yen for 1.5 hours or 9500 for 2 hours since it takes a while to get there and back. Most taxis in town have this course that you can choose from.

The room is relatively simple and plain, but the hot spring from Daisetsu Mountain attached to the hotel has clear and pure water, which is smooth and delicate after washing.

We wanted to hike to Mt. Asahidake during the Koyo (Fall foliage) season, and among the properties at the base of the mountain, La Vista Daisetsuzan appeared to be the highest end accommodation in the area. Both the outside and inside of the lodge are charming and rustic in appearance, but are definitely showing clear signs of age and wear. In fact, while taking a dip in the communal Onsen (natural hot springs) bath, I overheard two men remarking how the place was ”boro boro” (Japanese for ”really worn down.”) Thankfully, we were relieved to find that La Vista Daisetsuzan was at least quite clean, and did not exhibit the old, moldy smell that is commonplace in older properties. And the dining room seems to have been renovated - we enjoyed our dinner here (more on that in a moment.) We stayed in their ”Luxury Room,” the highest category unit that was a relatively spacious 56m² open-plan Junior Suite. Other rooms on premises are quite a bit smaller, but people used to staying in standard rooms at Marriott-class properties will be more than satisfied with these room types. La Vista Daisetsuzan has a communal, gender-segregated Onsen on site - there is both an indoor and open-air outdoor bath, which is appreciated, especially in the Winter months, given that you'll want to warm up in the indoor bath before jumping into the outdoor one. While we did not have breakfast at the property (we wanted to get an early start on our hike, and we're glad that we did - the sky is more clear and there are less crowds), we had the French-Japanese dinner. To say that the meal exceeded our expectations would be an understatement. We're in Hokkaido, and an hour from the nearest city (Asahikawa), yet every dish was creative, beautifully presented and a feast for the eyes and palate. Everything - from the tuna tartare to the mini quiche to the Foie Gras to the al dente pasta with mushrooms and broccoli - was a highlight. The only serving that did not hit the spot was the main (ocean-) fish dish. The fish was hard and dry - when you're in the center of Hokkaido, perhaps they should focus on other ingredients, or at least serve fish that are fine frozen (like Tuna) or that come from the nearby rivers or lakes. Overall, if we were to make a return trip to the area, we would be more than fine with staying again at La Vista Daisetsuzan. In no way is this a destination unto itself, but if our short but pleasant stay is any indication, it's a very solid higher-end option in Daisetsuzan. It definitely blows away the vast majority of lodges in U.S. National Parks, that's for sure!

**Hotel Review: Higashikawa Asahidake Onsen Hotel Bear Monte** **Rating: 4/5** I recently spent one night at the Higashikawa Asahidake Onsen Hotel Bear Monte in a Superior Twin Room, and the experience was quite delightful. The hotel's proximity to the Asahidake Visitor Centre, which is highly informative (I spent an hour there), and the ropeway to Mount Asahidake makes it an ideal choice for nature enthusiasts and hikers. The room was spacious, featuring a modern and minimalistic design that provided a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. My family particularly enjoyed the bath, and the attention to detail in the provided pajamas added an extra touch of luxury to our stay. While the buffet spread for both breakfast and dinner wasn't exactly fantastic, it was good enough to satisfy most guests. The variety was adequate, though there is room for improvement in terms of the selection offered. One of the highlights of our stay was waking up to the sounds of nature and the gentle breeze. The hotel's location is perfect for those looking to trek, hike, or simply enjoy the natural beauty of Daisetsuzan National Park. Overall, Higashikawa Asahidake Onsen Hotel Bear Monte offers a comfortable and convenient base for exploring the area, with spacious rooms, thoughtful amenities, and a prime location near key attractions. I would recommend it to anyone planning a visit to Mount Asahidake.

Staying at JR Inn Asahikawa was an absolute delight. This charming four-star hotel, conveniently located right next to the train station, offers not just comfort and convenience but also a unique touch of humor that makes for an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff’s warm welcome and playful demeanor set the tone for our stay. The front desk team was efficient and knowledgeable, but what truly stood out was their knack for humor. One staff member joked about the weather being “specially ordered” for our arrival, a light-hearted touch that immediately put us at ease. Our room was spacious, impeccably clean, and well-appointed with modern amenities. The view of the bustling train station was surprisingly tranquil, offering a unique blend of urban energy and serene comfort. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep after a day of exploring. Overall, JR Inn Asahikawa perfectly blends convenience, comfort, and a delightful sense of humor. The proximity to the train station makes it an ideal choice for travelers, and the wonderful staff ensures that your stay is memorable for all the right reasons. If you’re looking for a hotel that offers both excellent service and a
