Dai-Ichi Takimotokan

The room is large with excellent view. Free all drinks in fridge. Good coffee and tea selection.

Best Location near jigokudani near bus stop can walk around hotel , good Facilities. Onsen so impressive Dinner and Breakfast very good

Our stay in Daiichi Takimotokan was by far the best Onsen plus food experience in Japan this year. Dinner buffet was second to none in both quality, diversity and quantity. Onsen also was clean and very convenient to use. Open door onsen was well managed and with great atmosphere.

Loved the Japanese room and the onsens were amazing - it was much quieter in the morning compared to the evening. Buffet was really good and felt good value for money.

We booked West Building Premium Corner room with private onsen. Meals were underwhelming. Bits were dried as kids meal were actually quite poor in quality. Food in kids meal can be found at the buffet... Private onsen was great, room was comfortable, staff were friendly and helpful. Grand bath and service was satisfactory however meals were not. Overall pleasant experience but unlikely to return.

We stayed here for one night in the South Building, a Japanese style superior room. Overall, I would recommend this to someone who's wanting to experience all that Noboribetsu has to offer in one resort and doesn't mind some level of commercialisation at the expense of foregoing some Japanese Ryokan authenticity. This resort is staffed by a lot of foreigners, and they have clear signage and instructions in different languages for foreigners. Some complain of the rude service here but I think it's reciprocal - if you treat others with respect, you receive respect in return. They also took the opportunity to maximise profits by offering extras / additional experience at a cost, which is not necessarily a bad thing as you just decide if you want to pay extra or not for extra experience. The highlight was obviously the Grand Bath, which is massive. It was crowded when we stayed here but still manageable. Lots of options and magnificent view. We wanted Kaiseki style meals but as it was the New Year Eve, we had to settle for buffet meals for both dinner and breakfast. But they did make a mini Vegetarian set for us as we couldn't enjoy a lot of the dinner dishes. The futon was just so comfortable! We slept like babies throughout the night. Otherwise, the room itself was clean and spacious.
