Oceanfront Hotels in Otaru

"Convenient location and a really nice onsen. It gets very crowded, it has a very small gym, and only 3 combination washer/dryers for the entire building. The laundry can get really lined up as a regular sized load takes 2 hours to complete, and may not be fully dry. The breakfast has a good selection, but the food is average buffet food. The noise really carries in the hotel as well, we could hear the people speaking clearly from the next room while we were trying to sleep. "

"Spacious rooms, convenient location in Aeon shopping mall and opposite otaruchikko station. Great views."

"Hotel Nord Otaru is located across the street from the canal. It has a good view of the canal, but the ocean view is far away and unimpressive. The rooms are dated. Our shower room smelled like mildew and there was some visible mold on the ceiling. The room size is larger than typical for Japan. The breakfast buffet was mediocre but convenient. The Hokkaido ramen was good. The bar upstairs had a nice ambiance but they were out of several types of alcohol and their signature cocktail. It’s about an 11 minute walk to Otaru Station and about 28 minutes to the Mount Tengu Ropeway. "
