traditional tatami-style hotel at Hokkaido Onsen village

📍Noboribetsu Onsen | Manseikaku Hotel Review
🗓️ Stay Date: Winter, December 31st, 2023 ❄️
with a cozy night at Noboribetsu Manseikaku Hotel in snowy Hokkaido.

The room was a traditional tatami-style setup, giving that calming, authentic Japanese ryokan vibe.

At night, I changed into a yukata and soaked in the onsen — so relaxing, especially after a long travel day.

The hotel has both indoor and outdoor public onsen areas, and the best part?
You can enjoy the snow falling gently around you while soaking in the outdoor hot spring.
It was such a magical moment, quiet and serene — like a scene from a movie.
The next morning, I woke up to a full winter wonderland.
❄️ Looking out from the window while enjoying the buffet breakfast was the perfect start to the new year.

🔸 A small note for travelers:
If you’re arriving at Noboribetsu Station by train, do take note that there is no elevator. You'll need to carry your luggage up/down stairs — not ideal if you have heavy bags, so plan ahead.
But overall, it was a beautiful and memorable experience. If you love winter, snow, and hot springs, this spot is definitely worth a visit. ✨
