I’d decided to stay close to Hakodate train station as this was my first visit to Hakodate and I wanted to make sure I didn’t have to lug my suitcase around.
There is a JR hotel at the station and several others within a 5 minute walk.
Premier Hotel - Cabin President, Hakodate, Japan
I chose the Premier Hotel – Cabin President hotel which is across the road from the station. Superb location.
Check-in was easy and I was in my room within 10 minutes of walking in the door.
The room was big enough for me with a double bed and desk to the side, and a poorly located huge TV in the wall that was hard too view while lying on the bed. Only other downside being an uncomfortable pillow, but I managed.
I had a very good view of Mount Hakodate to the south from the large windows.
I didn’t try the restaurants at the hotel as there were plenty of places to go close by, but the laundry service was good and not too expensive.
Check-out was as easy as the check-in and I was soon off to the station for my next destination.
This was a well maintained hotel in a great location.
I would stay here again.
