[2024 Toyako Stay] Travel Guide for Toya-Onsen Hotel Hanabi (Updated Sep)
Gentle moments by the Lake Toya, a secret hot spring SPA in a splendid hotel
đ¸ Welcome to the dreamy wonderland of Hokkaido, where I spent a vacation at the Lake Toya Grand Hotel, feeling as if I was in a paradise on earth. đď¸
đ In the early morning, as the first ray of sunlight gently brushed over the calm surface of Lake Toya, I woke up in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of my luxurious suite. Inside the room, the perfect blend of Japanese and modern design was eye-catching; outside the window, the blue lake and distant snow-capped mountains complemented each other, stunningly beautiful. đ
đ Next, it was time for the long-awaited hot spring moment! Dressed in a soft yukata, I walked along the quiet stone path to the open-air bath. The hot spring water glided over my skin, taking away all the fatigue. With my eyes closed, I could only hear the sound of the breeze rustling the leaves and the occasional chirping of birds. At that moment, I felt as if I became one with nature. đŚ
đ˝ď¸ For lunch, the hotel's Japanese cuisine was a feast for both the eyes and the palate. The freshly caught seafood was transformed into artistic dishes by the skilled chef, each bite tantalizing the taste buds to the utmost. đŁđŁ
đ At night, the fireworks show over Lake Toya was performed on time. Sitting on the hotel's terrace, holding a cup of steaming sake, watching the fireworks bloom in the night sky, brilliant yet fleeting, like the beautiful moments in life, worth cherishing with all our hearts. đ
đââď¸ The SPA experience at the Grand Hotel is not to be missed. The professional masseuse, with skilled hands, allowed every cell in my body to be completely relaxed, as if reborn. đ
đ This trip, the Lake Toya Grand Hotel gave me more than just a place to rest; it was a purification of the soul. Here, time seemed to slow down, allowing one to deeply appreciate the beauty and tranquility of life. đ§ââď¸
đ If you are also looking for such a haven away from the hustle and bustle, then the Lake Toya Grand Hotel is definitely worth experiencing for yourself. Next time, bring your loved one and create your own warm memories here! đ
