Hirafu Hotel Accommodation

"Excellent service, friendly and professional staff, room with scenic view"

"Have some of the most amazing and tranquil views imaginable of the lake. This hotel is away from the main town but offers a shuttle several times through the day and it is only a 10 minute ride highly recommend taking a ferry to the island in the middle of Lake Toya. The beds were super comfortable, and the food was traditional Japanese, which is not my favorite, but was good quality and generous. The staff were very friendly, but English was somewhat difficult for them. This was a great location to beat the heat that we had experienced in Tokyo and Kyoto, as it was unusually hot for June this visit we hiked around the island circumference which took about 2 1/2 hours. The water was really nice and I could see swimming there, but we just didn’t bring bathing suits. We learned from our relatives who live here that you can get pretty good food from 711 like these rice, seaweed wraps and things like that and green tea so those are perfect snacks to have for lunch or too tied one over Between meals. The shuttle stops right at the 711 so that is convenient. I know it sounds ridiculous to Americans, but the 711 in Japan is a lot better than America."

"The moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the staff. The service team is friendly and efficient. The room is fantastic. Bright and spacious. Amenities are good. Super clean. Very comfortable pillow. One of the best stays. "

"Very friendly and helpful staff. Property is very nicely designed, well executed and well managed. Overnight parking (valet) is relatively expensive for the spring season in the area."

"With a car, moving around was not an issue. Room with great view of Mount Yotei and greenery of the golf course."

"Clean and up-kept property. The room is spacious and beds are comfy. Up kept osen and pool ( maybe we are lucky as it is the end of skiing season). Good varieties buffet choices. Receptionists and butlers are welcoming and helpful. We loved the valet skiing services. The staff are so accommodating and helpful. Overall we all enjoyed our stay very much. We will keep coming back. "
