JR Inn Hakodate

Location, comfy, quiet, able to leave our luggage prior to check in.

Friendly and accommodating staff, bilingual, helped with storing luggage, explained hotel clearly and warmly. Excellent facilities—rooftop public bath with views over the train yard, as well as an unexpected lounge with free coffee and a view of the Hakodate skyline and Mt. Hakodate. Great place to chill, read a book, and take in the view. Plenty of parking—1200 Yen for our two days—and immediate access to the JR Station, convenience stores, and Morning Market area with restaurants. A perfect place to stay for exploring and unwinding in Hakodate, and a big bonus if you're a fan of Japanese trains with views of the train yard and railway theming throughout the hotel. The rooms, which are compact but well-designed, maintain this theming. Overall, a stellar hotel and one of our favourites on our recent trip—bonus points for the hotel smelling absolutely delightful throughout.

The best location, right at the Hakodate Station with the bus stop right outside (bus used more in Hakodate). The morning markets are across the street. The facilities look brand new, very modern and comfortable. The bedroom was a slightly bigger room for the price point. The breakfast was absolutely amazing with a combination of toast/pastry/yoghurt for westerners and a sushi train and other japanese dishes. As a family with young kids we also love the convenience of breakfast. For those interested the red brick warehouse and ropeway was about a 20-30 minute walk away. 30 minutes on the bus but we just walked and took a taxi back. There is Children's World which is an old fashion amusement park about 30 mins walk and Kids Plaza about 5 mins walk away. Lots of great food around.

Across the road from the seafood market. Convenient if you like chirashi/donburi bowl so many places to choose from. Nice walk around the bay to the red brick warehouse. Pillow corner is different and interesting. Good size onsen and level 12 lounge got nice view. We travelled with 4 kids under 10 and they gave us seperate 4 kids amenities (slippers and toothbrush) which were nice. Next to train station. We drove and has plenty of parking for 600 Yen per night. Will definitely stay here again if we come back to hakodate.

If I stayed just only a night but I was impressed for the room environment, there were enough space for 2 big opening luggages and 3 people to stay. The hotel located next to JR Hakodate station (you will see 7-11 around the entrance of the alley leading to the way to the hotel located). Staffs were friendly and willing to help with what we needed. We will definitely choose to stay here if we visit Hakodate again. Although the price seems a bit high for a night but personally I’m happy with it.
