Shimokita Peninsula Pet-friendly Holidays

The room was clean, staff were friendly, and the overall ambience helped me feel calm and relaxed.

A large and well designed onsen setup on ground floor attached to the natural source. Great for those who would enjoy such setup. Maintenance is very good for the age of this property. Rio resorts is really doing this region a great service by reviving this formerly decaying hotel in a depressed area. It is a good 20 minute walk from the main drag where everyone wants to be at. The "premium tower" houses the very large rooms with balconies featuring extremely traditional layout. Where the toilet is in a separate room far away from the bathroom. Now also has a coin laundry and game center, both can come in handy for traveling families. There is a great "cash only" genuine ramen stand just across the street. McDonalds is 3 blocks away together with a healthy ecosystem of very local restaurants of various type. The beach, which Hakodate is not particularly known for, is only one block away. The city has at least one project going on to improve the beach front area at the moment. Staff are super friendly and superbly helpful, giving me a very good first impression of rio resorts management.

One of the best seafood breakfast buffet in Japan. It’s right next to the beautiful ocean Hakodate harbor and the seafood market.

The room and the staff were great. I really like how convenient this hotel is.
