Asari Classe Hotel

Amazing place, but the hotel is a little run down. Locations of rooms are also far from the reception area. However, overall I would say it is a great place to spend the night

Beautiful onsen. It will be good if the breakfast selection can alter everyday, maybe adding one or 2 new dishes. Overall good. Will recommend to friends.

Good onsen hotel near Otaru city within 15 - 20 mins drive. Buffet breakfast with good selection of breakfast items. Room was spacious.

Family trip to the Sapporo snow festival. We booked this place largely based on price (everything in or near Sapporo was astronomical), but also because we had heard that Otaru is nice to check out (it is) and also - my favorite - because this sits right across from a small ski area. We took a day just for skiing and the area had a surprising amount of terrain and a not-so-surprising amount of phenomenal snow. At any rate, the hotel: the room was HUGE, and not just by Japanese standards, though a bit dated. The breakfast buffet was great. Only complaint is that you have to pay an additional fee to use the pool, which was quite nice - with a "fenced-off" shallow kids area.

It was a great experience for our family in our first trip to Hokkaido. After a 30+ hour travels from Atlanta, GA, we wanted to just relax to recover from our trip. We were fortunate to have arrived just a half hour before the 3:00pm check-in time so we were able to get to our room quickly. The staff was very helpful in getting us all settled and we began unwind from the hectic travels. The hotel has convenient morning shuttle to Otaru station, which we took advantage. The location was very peaceful and the dining was superb to let us begin our fresh seafood experience. We reserved the room with a personal outdoor bath which we absolutely recommend a must have. We also loved the Japanese breakfast in the morning and since our son didn't quite enjoy the Japanese style, the western breakfast was very good as well. The only thing we would probably change is the time of year which we visited. The snow just started falling and we didn't get to take advantage of the slopes across the street. Overall, would definitely come back for our next visit in a few years.

Staff was friendly and helpful. It was nice that they reimbursed the bus fare from Otaru station to the hotel and had free shuttle the next morning. Quality of food for dinner and breakfast was good. I would stay here again.

Nice spacious rooms (perhaps too big), since there seemed to be a lot of wasted room that could have been used for an improved room setup (stayed in room with open air bath). Private open air bath with room didn’t feel that private, but still incredibly relaxing. Highly recommend signing up for breakfast and dinner package options (very good food and limited/no options outside hotel). Frustrated that high price paid did not seem to come with amenities...extra charges for use of swimming pool, ping pong, tennis courts, bus transportation to Otaru, etc. Staff didn’t speak English, but this was a good hotel if looking for a quiet getaway to relax for a few days.

We use google translate alot, they need to have english speaking staff.
