Best Hotels near Himenuma Observatory, Rishirifuji

The hotel is 4.5 kilometers away from the airport. There is a free pick-up service. It is best to call in advance. Otherwise, there is no way to call in Japan. There is no way for people who have free service to the hotel. The hotel is conveniently located on the port of Lishui Island, and it is convenient to go to Rebun Island and Wakkanai. The food is OK, the sashimi is very fresh, but it is a little sad if you are not used to the Japanese. Service facilities are very good, very comfortable, overall it is still very recommended.

Spent two days at the Surfeel Hotel, Wakkanai in early February 23. It is a short walk from Wakkanai rail station and well placed to reach most of the town easily on foot. Well I say easily, the snow was incredibly high in the streets and sidewalks so obviously the right clothing and footwear is essential! We had a lovely room overlooking the sea with a big picture window. We could spend hours watching the changing conditions which moved through heavy snow to sunshine back to snow in minutes throughout most of our stay. The old infrastructure from submarine pens has now gone but the covered archway stretches out to form one side of the harbour just beyond the hotel. We ate out in town both nights we were in Wakkanai - not a reflection on the hotel offering but just part of our normal routine to explore and experience other things. We did try and get a drink one night in the rooftop bar but found it closed for the season. We managed to get a couple of beers in the restaurant on the ground floor but they kicked us out at 9pm as they were closing! That said staff throughout the hotel were charming and helpful as ever. Breakfast was pretty good. The offering was dominated by Japanese specialities as you would more than expect with limited western alternatives but the croissant, coffee and eggs were all good. We tried a variety of Japanese dishes and they were pretty good as well. The temperature in the restaurant was about 30C and just felt unhealthy. We were the only people in there but the Japanese obsession with anti-COVID measures is very tiresome and masks were required as were gloves whilst getting your food on a tray from the buffet. At least we didn’t have a pathetic little plastic screen placed between us like we did at our hotel in Sapporo! We knew the Japanese would be masked up - they often were even before COVID - but come on, time and life have moved on! All-in-all a very good hotel and option for stay in Wakkanai especially with a sea-view room on a higher floor. Well done Surfeel Hotel and thank you.

2023/6/5 Stay 1 week trip to Hokkaido. Stayed at Guest House Moshiripa in Wakkanai. First time using a guest house. The room and toilet are clean. I didn't use the shower room this time, but I think it's probably as well cleaned as the toilet. You can also use the shared space freely. You can drink free coffee in the morning and stay comfortably. I was able to spend a good day, feeling that they were considerate of each other so as not to disturb other guests. The futon was also hygienic. Many people traveling by motorcycle stayed, but there is a parking space for people with cars, so it is safe. Recommended accommodation.

This was a last minute booking as I cancelled the booking for another hotel by mistake and did not realise until I was at the other hotel itself. Dormy Inn is very convenient, less than 8 minutes to JR Wakkanai. The rooms are quite small and sp****ly furnished but still comfortable for our family. Enough power plugs all over the room but no UDB charging points so remember to bring your travel adapters. What the room lacks in amenities, the facilities more than make up for it. There is FREE ramen every night from 9.30pm at the hotel restaurant, so we simply bought a some food from the seica mart at JR wakkanai and eat before the restaurant opens at night. On top of this, there is of course the roof top onsen. We like in particular the outdoor part of the onsen where you can enjoy the snow falling onto you while you soak in the pool. After the onsen bath you can help yourself to the free ice cream outside the men's and ladies' onsen. There is also a small manga library between these 2 onsens too. We loved our stay here and will be glad to stay here again if we go to wakkanai again.

A hotel in front of Wakkanai Station. There are many restaurants and convenience stores in the surrounding area, and the breakwater dome and Wakkanai Park are within easy walking distance, so the location is very good. I live in a shared room with bunk beds. The shower is free, and you can drink tea, coffee and miso soup for free. You can also eat and drink in public spaces. This is a stylish space with a clean and calm feeling. I think the price of bunk beds in shared rooms is a bit high, but I was very relaxed during my stay.

It feels like an old-fashioned inn, but the rooms, toilets, and baths seem to have been renovated and are clean and easy to use. Especially, the bath is 24 hours a day and the bathtub is large. However, since you can enter by locking one by one, you have to see the timing. Supper was a simple course, but it's enough. Ordinary women may not be able to eat it. Even if you have crab or octopus shabu-shabu on this, you may not be able to eat it unless you are a young athletic club. The rice is also delicious. Cold sake is Otokoyama limited to Wakkanai. This can be drunk like water. The room does not have air conditioning, but the temperature drops at night so you can sleep enough. The parking lot has no roof, so the bike may be tight on a rainy day
