Hotel Torifito Otaru Canal

“It is a very nice hotel”

Got the tatami room on the top floor, just nice for a family of 3 with 8 year old kid. The entrance is rather cramped but the main sleeping + tatami area is rather spacious. The shower area is not the most spacious and will be rather cramped to fit 2 adults. The hotel is clean and comes with ni… Più

Got the tatami room on the top floor, just nice for a family of 3 with 8 year old kid. The entrance is rather cramped but the main sleeping + tatami area is rather spacious. The shower area is not the most spacious and will be rather cramped to fit 2 adults. The hotel is clean and comes with nice onsen on the first floor. The breakfast selection is reasonable. In terms of location, its within walking distance to the Otaru attractions like the Otaru Canal. Note that the parking spaces are limited at the hotel but you can park at the carpark opposite the hotel for 1500 yen overnight. Overall, I would recommend this hotel.

“Perfect location and a nice room”

We really liked the location, as the hotel is just a few steps away from the canal, shops and restaurants. Our room was quite small but the bed was big and comfy and the room was spotless clean.

“Ok but will not return”

Its a good place. Centrally located and reasonably priced and with that, it should be one of those which you would come back to but... 1. Wifi was non-existent. All three of us could not get any data access. We can connect to the wifi but no data 2. The toilet in the room did not smell right. … Più

Its a good place. Centrally located and reasonably priced and with that, it should be one of those which you would come back to but... 1. Wifi was non-existent. All three of us could not get any data access. We can connect to the wifi but no data 2. The toilet in the room did not smell right. So, its not like a public toilet but I could make out the urine smell. Luckily it was not bad enough to smell the whole room out 3. The room is ok sized but it does not offer any reasonable space for even one suitcase. There are literally little room for anything else and it feels almost like you should come with what you need each day and leave everything else in the car (if you are driving) 4. The public path was a hot tub. I didn't have much expectations and did not even go but I did check and wonder why they even provide such a service 5. What they can improve is advising customers where to park. I was told to park elsewhere because it was full and thank to Gemini, it translated for me some festive event that was taking place would result in over 9,000 yen to park my car overnight. I had to find somewhere else and if the hotel was kind enough to even warn me... With all that, I would like to say it is a good place to visit but 4 of the 5 points I stated would push me to not return. It's an "ok" hotel... don't get me wrong but just not for me,

“Very strict about parking timing”

We arrived at 11am and there were just 2-3 cars in the parking lot of at least 18 spaces. We were told that parking starts at 2pm and check in starts at 3pm so we had to kill time till 2pm to even park there (it’s paid parking - ¥1500 for 1 day from 2pm to 11am which they follow very strictly).

The room is very small, breakfast mediocre. Have to grab your own amenities from downstairs, even so it’s at limited times and you can’t just help yourself at any time.
