Introducing the hotel I stayed at on my solo trip to Otaru!

📍OMO5 Otaru by Hoshino Resorts
Just 3 minutes from the Otaru Canal! This hotel evokes the retro atmosphere of Otaru, where traces of the Meiji era still remain.

The hotel has two buildings: the North Building, visible in the foreground to the right, and the South Building on the left. The South Building was renovated from the former Otaru Chamber of Commerce, a historic building in Otaru City! Not only is it visually appealing, but the interior also retains many of the original elements, creating a truly charming retro atmosphere.

The OMO series offers a wide variety of activities, but one I highly recommend is the Otaru Night Lounge. All guests can visit for free. Relax in a classic space lit by oil lamps and accompanied by the sounds of a beautiful music box. Definitely give it a try.

Other activities include a seafood bowl at the popular Sankaku Market and an Otaru Canal cruise, so be sure to check them out when you stay!
