Yunokawa Onsen Emi Hakodateya

We were in Japan for three weeks and this was our last stop for tree days. We slept very well, best sleeps of the trip. We walked the area but I cannot say much about it because of heavy snow. We found an Aeon food market close by and the botanical garden with the hottub monkeys is also nearby. And we used taxis to go downtown to the red brick warehouse area. The onsen was nice. I liked the part that opened on an outdoor garden full of snow. The breakfast was fine. Free coffee, sparkling wine, and ice cream in the evening. We had dinner one night and it was good. The onsen is convenient to the airport and I want to mention that our meal before takeoff at the airport on the third floor was one of the best we had on our trip and reasonably priced. The staff has minimal English but we used google translate. The breakfast food was not labeled in English but had pictures that helped me guess what to take. I think it is a neighborhood bathhouse. In the evenings I saw lots of people come in in outdoor clothes, bathe, and leave. We saw no other westerners in our three days there so maybe we had an authentic experience? This is not a luxury stay but we were happy to have a relaxing stay before heading home. I hope this sounds like both an accurate and a positive report.

Bread in addition to croissants at breakfast to put the fried eggs, sausage, and beef on. The chef is really good and really cares.

Very nice facilities and great breakfast and wonderful free flowing soft serve and drinks from 3-10pm. Onsen was also really nice

Room was a little smaller than expected. Door was a little finicky to lock and unlock. We were asked for our passport upon checkout rather than check in and we were rushing to leave and catch the bus at that time.

The staff are very nice and friendly. The food and onsen were great.

Room was a bit small.

The staff are friendly and the food is amazing. Also it’s in a lovely place - close enough to public transport but definitely away from the busy roads!

Nothing!

The outdoor onsen was wonderful. A lot of small touches made the stay great like the cookies, the sparkling wine and ice cream station. Loved the amenities provided and the amazing breakfast. Bedding was comfortable also and the fresh coffee in the room. Great short get away and nice onsen.

The location was alright. Pretty to look at but a bit of a distance from most locations. The breakfast was great, would definitely recommend going early as it does cool down fairly quickly. The onsen was a pleasant addition.

The location is good! A few mins’ walk to the bus station and supermarket. Very clean and comfy! The room is big, staff are very friendly. Onsen is excellent!!!

no

Soft serve icecream and sparkling wine after onsen was really good! Comfy lobby and communal lounge area
