Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff is very nice and accomodating.Lake front facility, facing great view of the lake. Though small, town is very nice and it has unique character. Room is great but not elegant but I have no reason to complain. Hotel breakfast is very good, I did not try dinner there and assume Japanese food items. Note that food choices outside are limited and many restuarants close by 6PM. Only a ramen place was open late and it was good food there although people smoke inside. If you are driving, make sure gas tank is full as there are not many gas stations in this area of Hokkaido and even those exists open late in the morning. I was a solo traveller, hiker and I truly enjopyed everything there.

While the hotel is a little outdated, I really enjoyed my stay. Kind staff. The traditional Japanese styled room was big and comfortable, with the expected amenities that come with this kind of room. The bathroom was small and the toilet was slightly wonky, but not big issues. The bath was a good size, and the outdoor onsen area was nice after a long day. Laundry worked well.

Good value for money

We had a room facing the lake and the view was fantastic. It is an old hotel and therefore, do not expect things you usually see in the new hotels. However, we would say it is good value for our money as the room is clean and service is good.

For the price I pay, this is definitely not worth it, at all. It is a lot of do it yourself. Not foreigner friendly. Rigid and unhelpful in general. They put themself on Expedia but they do not reply to messages so don't expect to get help and answer there.

Wonderful view of Lake Akan

We drove a rented car and arrived at the front of Hotel Gozensui, only to realise parking was at the rear. Not a major concern as it looked like a common mistake among travellers; a hotel staff would step out and pass you a small flyer showing you the route to the parking lots. It was a rainy day when we arrived so it was a nice gesture when the hotel staff also came out with umbrellas to shield us from the rain. Room was extremely spacious for just the two of us. The futons were not prepared when we arrived. We appreciate this because it allowed us to enjoy the space in the room when we needed it. Futons were only set up around 7pm. Toilets were (as usual in all of Japan) clean and adequate. The view of Lake Akan was slightly affected by the rainy mist. But it did cleared up for a moment to allow us to soak in the awesome view. Wouldn't trade it for anything else. Amenities are aplenty in the area with eating houses, restaurants, convenience stores, and retail shops. Unlike other parts of Hokkaido I was in, there were plenty of shops opened till late.

Convenient location by lakeside. Hotel is next to Lake Akan cruise boat terminal and minutes' walk to local handicraft shops and Ainu Village. Relaxing stay.
