Kenbuchi Hotels

"The hotel was nice and the staff was excellent."

"Wonderful accomodation with enough room for 6 people (1 double bed, 1 single, 3 futons). Loved the privacy and view of the mountains over the snow-filled rice fields. Check in was easy with english speaking staff via a touch pad when arriving. There is a farmer's market on the way to Asahikawa with fresh local produce. Internet is fast (approx 10 MB/sec). Excellent water pressure. There is paid laundry facilities in a separate building. Parking is outside and the driveway is cleared by staff. The garage is for use as storage, not for parking the car. But you can park right up to your front door. A minor issue is no knives in the cutlery (a cooking knife is supplied). I discovered using a spoon to cut sausages at breakfast can be explosive as the juices burst out everywhere from the blunt pressure."

"This hotel was super affordable, but also super dated. Definitely a no-frills experience. They do not offer luggage storage which was the only service I would have wanted. It’s clean and safe, but definitely feels like it’s stuck in another decade and the hallway smelled. Otherwise I found it to be a good location for the winter festival with easy access to nightlife. "
