Find 3-Star Hotels in Biei-chō

"Although the building is a bit old, the room was spacious and clean, and the amenities were well-provided, making for a very comfortable stay. For dinner, there are many good restaurants nearby, but I'd recommend making reservations to secure a spot. As for breakfast, there was a great variety of dishes, and the staff's smiles and excellent service made for a wonderful start to the day! I would definitely like to stay here again! Thank you very much!"

"This was the best hotel of my trip! First, the good points: the shuttle service was super convenient. I just called them through Trip.com, and they picked me up at the Asahikawa JR Bus Stop #1 at 2 PM and took me directly to the hotel. The location is excellent – right next to Shirogane Blue Pond, and you can easily walk to the Blue River (Aoiike) in about half an hour without needing to join a tour. That walk along the Blue River was honestly my favorite part of the entire Japan trip, especially since I could go at my own pace, without crowds, and take as many photos as I wanted. After dinner, there was a shuttle to see the special light effects at the Blue Pond, which were pretty cool. Every day, I got to enjoy several true onsen baths, including outdoor ones. It was such a unique experience to be soaking in a hot spring while it was snowing heavily on my head! Finally, and most importantly, both the dinner and breakfast at the hotel were absolutely top-notch. They had unlimited fatty tuna, sukiyaki, beef, strawberries, tempura, and so much more, and everything tasted fantastic. I'd honestly go back to Biei just for this hotel again!"

"Oh, I already reviewed this, didn't I? This is a wonderful, purely Japanese-style hotel. The included Japanese set menu for breakfast and dinner was excellent and felt very ceremonial. The snow was very deep in winter, and every window in the hallway offered a view like a picturesque painting."

"The facilities are generally old. I think people might have different opinions on the facilities and cleanliness. I was a bit surprised that the room key and locker key were actual physical keys. The hot spring facilities are old, but they give a natural hot spring feel, so it's not bad. Breakfast is simple but offers a good variety of Japanese dishes. The location is great as it's right next to major tourist attractions. However, it's quite secluded with nothing around, and the way there isn't easy to find."

"景點旁邊，帶很棒的温泉"

"It is a B&B run by ********* and speaks Chinese. Dinner and breakfast are charged separately. Dinner is 4,500 yen and breakfast is 1,500 yen. I went there once in autumn and winter, and the food has not changed. If you are staying consecutively or going there for the second time, it is recommended to inform the owner in advance, and they will update some dishes for you. The room is a bit old and the public bathroom on the first floor is not open. If you have a car at night, it’s very convenient to go to Shinei-no-oka to watch the stars!"

"A Convenient and Comfortable Retreat There are 4 units in this building. One parking slot per unit is provided at the corner near unit 101. This apartment offers a truly practical and comfortable base for exploring the area. We really appreciated the thoughtful touches, like the basic utensils and cutlery for easy meal prep, and the welcome inclusion of instant slippers, toothbrushes, and toothpaste. The microwave was also super handy for quick snacks and reheats. Comfort is well-managed with one air-conditioner that kept the unit at a pleasant temperature throughout our stay. The washing machine was a huge plus, and we found the designated drying area right above it in the toilet very efficient. The separate dining table was also a nice touch, providing a comfortable space for meals. 2 dryers are outside the building. With two double beds, this unit is well-suited for small groups or families. We also enjoyed being able to link our Netflix account to the TV, which was great for unwinding in the evenings . Things to Note About the Location The apartment is located in a quiet neighborhood, offering a peaceful atmosphere. While there aren't many eateries directly nearby, there are two convenience stores within easy reach. Do keep in mind that local supermarkets tend to close around 7 PM, so plan accordingly for groceries. We found the area to be quite pleasant for getting around, with not many cars on the road. This makes it particularly fun to explore the town by bicycle, and there are several bicycle rental stores available if you're keen to pedal around."
