Hotels near Ueno Farm, Asahikawa

I 1st came to Hokkaido in 20th July 2019 and i stayed at JR Inn Asahikawa. This time i selected the same hotel again. Service is good, i told them abt my previous visit and wld like to stay in that room again. They were so nice to help arranged for the room when it was available on my 3rd night. Kudos to the team for trying! The wonderful thing about staying here is even when you have checked out, when the train is delayed/postponed you can easily walked back to the hotel and explain to the staff and sit at the lounge waiting for your next train.

This is my second trip to Hokkaido after nine years, and I really loved Asahikawa the first time around, so I made sure to stay there this time, followed by three nights in Sapporo. I originally planned to book a JR hotel but ended up choosing the Y's Hotel across the street, and it was such a comfortable stay! The view was fantastic, and the breakfast buffet was much better than the one at the Sotetsu Fresa Inn where I stayed in Sapporo. Plus, there's an Aeon mall right across from the hotel, so food and drinks were never an issue! 👍👍👍

It is said that it is a hotel that has been in business for more than 80 years. The interior design of the store is very exquisite, especially the hot spring area, which has an ancient but beautiful feeling. The bathrobe prepared in the room is folded with corners after ironing. It is very ritual to wear to the hot spring. The staff's service attitude is also very good and I feel the intention.

Everything was great. Proximity to the Asahikawa station was very useful and helpful, especially with all the snow. The amenities were nice. I especially liked the apple tea. Breakfast was an affordable nice buffet with plenty of options to choose from. Seating was easy to get.

A good option for solo skiing in Asahikawa. After breakfast, head to the bus station. I personally think walking to the OMO7 bus stop (about 10 minutes) is better, as you can board directly. If that's closer, you can go to the station bus stop (7 minutes), but you'll have to wait for the bus. The advantage is you can leave later, but the disadvantage is that it might be full and you'll have to wait for an extra bus or sit in the aisle. Free chicken curry rice is available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays at 7 PM. New towels and toothbrushes are provided daily. Lotion can be picked up in the lobby on the first floor. Delivery packages (ski equipment, etc.) can be collected. The room is spacious for one person, and economical for two.

Hotel's about 10 minutes walk by the track on pedestrian walkway from the station. There's a 7-11 across. Quiet area. Great Onsen with jacuzzi and ishiburo (stone tub) as well as the usual hot and cold pools with sauna. There's no water in the room but they give each guest a coin for their own drinks at the Onsen. Every evening til 9pm, there's free sampling of sakes. Last night, there were five bottles and cos there are no staff, you can sample them unlimited! I think I had about 300ml total. There's free soup but I'd skip them.

I've stayed at countless hotels during my trips to Japan, and even the old and small ones have always felt worth it. This is truly the first one that I genuinely regret. First, the location. On the map, it doesn't seem far from the JR station, but walking there is a real trek. Whether it's summer or winter, with or without luggage, the path itself is fine, but it's just so far and tiring! Second, the service is very inattentive. I booked a triple room, and I've never encountered a hotel that forgot to make up the third bed! Then, this is an old hotel that was acquired, renovated, and reopened. The overall impression is a bit like a botched renovation project – very makeshift, cobbled together, and carelessly done. They only renovated the parts they want you to see, and for the rest, they just put up a wooden board to cover it up. I booked this place specifically because of the Hoshino Resorts name, and I feel a bit deceived! Finally, the breakfast indeed tastes good, but the variety isn't extensive, though you can get full. If you don't book in advance, you can't add it on the day. If you're just going for the breakfast, I mean, where can't you find breakfast?! (The photos are what they want you to see; imagine the unseen parts yourself!)

The room was really small and the hotel itself was quite old. There's a hot spring bathhouse on the basement level, which is convenient for showering, and toiletries can be picked up for free in the lobby, which is well-stocked. There's a self-service laundry room on the ground floor; washing and drying are separate, and the dryer isn't very efficient, so plan your laundry time accordingly. The restaurant is on the top floor with a beautiful view, and the breakfast is very rich with daily rotating dishes – they put a lot of effort into it. The location is great, not far from Asahikawa Station, and dining is very convenient with many restaurants to choose from.

It was alright. Since it was peak snow festival season and we were staying for a long time, this was the only hotel that had rooms available for consecutive nights. We initially booked for a week, then extended for three more days. Note that if you extend your stay, even if it's the same room type, you'll be reassigned to a different room and have to check out before checking back in, which is very inconvenient. This was something I'd never experienced before staying at a hotel in Japan, so this aspect of the experience wasn't great. The location wasn't very convenient either; the distance from the station was awkward—not far, but not close either. Walking around to Aeon Mall in the snow was quite tiring. Aside from that, everything was pretty good. The service was excellent, and the breakfast was quite plentiful. The roasted baby potatoes were delicious; I ate several every day.

It was convenient since it’s not that far from the station. It was clean and had a great stay for a night. There is also a convenience store nearby so it’s a plus especially if you nees anything or just wanted to buy some necessities.
