When we booked in we found the room a bit small because the pictures of the semi-double were used on the agoda site rather than the standard twin. However we were allowed to upgrade for only 2,000 yen extra per night. The hotel is quite close to the snow festival site and the ski shuttle stops to Kamui stops right... More

Like most reviewers mentioned, it's a comfortable hotel. Room is spacious (double room) and all amenities worked well. Reception staff spoke some English, good enough to communicate. If you drive, parking charges are 1000yen per day, which is pretty decent for the area. We had free LAN access in the room. Our request for high floor was promptly met (thumbs... More

We booked two rooms and stayed at this hotel for 3 nights, using it as a base to explore Furano and Biei besides the side trip to Asahiyama Zoo which was excellent. The hotel is located not far from the JR Asahikawa Station but if you have heavy luggage, you may want to consider taking a taxi (about 550 yen).... More

I stayed here for 2 nights during my 10-day self-drive road-trip in Central Hokkaido. I was travelling with my wife and 3 young kids. Kids were very amused with the "elevator-style" parking garage. Check-in was quick and we had 2 connecting rooms. Each room was 22,400 yen per night. Rooms were clean and spacious, typical of most hotels in Hokkaido.... More

Apart from being fairly highly priced like many Japanese hotels this was pretty standard. Service was excellent and breakfast was better than the quality of the room would suggest. The real negative was a total absence of Internet access in the room, however there was free wireless Internet in the lobby. The only reason I mark that I would not... More

Location of the hotel is a little far from Asahikawa JR station (about 1km). Advisable to take a taxi, and it should not cost more than 550yen per trip. However, the hotel is near to the Asahikawa Snow Festival, which is just a block behind the hotel. The hotel is also close to many izakaya eateries nearby, good alternative from... More

We stayed at this hotel during Asahikawa's Winter Festival in February 2009. We booked through the hotel’s web site and paid for a triple room only 8,000 yen per night (which is actually cheaper than staying at a youth hostel dormitory!). We were given a spacious, clean room on the upper floor facing the park, and we could even enjoy... More

Went and stayed here in low season, played 4.000 yen pp. Great value for room, and the staff was fantastic. The Onsen was awesome as well. Didn't stay for breakfast as it was going to cost more to have breakfast than to stay here. Staff were wonderful. Very close to Center of town. Remeber, big and fancy dosn't always mean... More

We had the opportunity to experience the Loisir Asahikawa and were very impressed with the service extended to us. My Children (3&5) loved the room and the nicely prepared kids set (a plushy Polar Bear). The Food in the Cafe was great (Dinner & Breakfast) and the chef is luckily working with local products to give the guest a good... More
