Best view of Lake Akan & Ainu Culture village
The hotel position facing Lake Akan & walking distance to the ferry terminal is top attraction. Dinner & Breakfast were really great, food & dishes were of good quality and fresh. Two comments were that, the hotel does not have parking facilities. Guests need to take a shuttle bus (free of charge) to a public car park 400m-500m away. Also, hotel probably due for refurbishment to give a fresh look.

Hotel lobby was under construction and had to enter through a gift shop. Very uninviting and unsafe to walk through. No one could understand English. Buffet average. Would not recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay. The room was beautiful. The morning breakfast a must. The evening dining at Bar De Pan in the hotel was very accommodating and delicious. My wife loved the hot spa and message chairs. The town is magical. The Ainu village and shows were fascinating and the people very kind. The Kamuy Lumina (Enchanted Night Walk at Lake Akan) is a must. We took the shuttle from Sapporo and back to Chitose. This was also effortless and a great way to see the countryside. Thank you

Akan is an awesome place, and Hanayuuka hotel is a perfect place to stay in it. The lake is literally less than a minute walk from the terrace doors, and so is the cruise ship and motor boat places. The entrance to Kamuy Lumina (a fantastic night show about an ainu legend in the forest) is also very close. There are many dining places and convenience stores nearby, the tourist office is 5 minutes of walk, and the Ainu Village is around 10 minutes of walk. Our rooms very surprisingly big, of course very clean. The place has a playing room for children, laundry room, massage chairs, bike rentals, studio quality photo room, and even a tiny photo museum. I honestly loved our stay here, and want to come back again.

子連れで利用しました。 バイキングの際 まずバイキングの場所から最も遠い席に案内されました。子どもの椅子をつけてほしいと頼み食べ物を取りに行きました。戻ると子供椅子はつけてくれていましたがもともとおいてあった椅子も置きっぱなし。スタッフに下げてほしいとお願いしたくても会場から一番遠い席なのもあり近くにスタッフもいなくて言いに行けませんでした。 食事を取りに行くにも大変でしたのでカートがないかと伺ったところあるとのことで用意していただき そこで座席が遠いことに気づき席を変えてくれる提案をもらいました。 座席の移動をお願いし、カートでバイキング会場に向かいもどるとその席に子供椅子はついていませんでした。 再度スタッフをさがし、子供椅子をつけてもらいましたが、また元々あった椅子は下げていだけませんでした。 色々なことに疲れてしまいほとんどご飯を食べられないまま次の時間の人たちも来たので会場をあとにしました。 リラックスしにきているはずでしたが とっても疲弊しました。 子連れでなければ全く問題ないのかもしれませんが 子連れの方には全くおすすめできません。  鶴賀グループは毎回期待していくのですが ホスピタリティがあまりにもなさすぎて がっかりしました。もう行きません
