Tabist fami THE GREEN OTARU

Provision of free coffee, body sponge

Stayed here for 4 nights at the beginning of our trip around Japan. We didn't have many interactions with staff other than the housekeeping staff. They were lovely to deal with. The rooms we chose not have cleaned every day. Instead, we would put our dirty towels, etc. In a bag outside our room and we would return in the afternoon to fresh clean towels. The size of the room was good. We had almost more room that we could use. Location: It was not on the main street in Otaru, ocer a few instead. That was perfect for us. We realised there was a covered walkway/ shopping street that was very convenient to keep out of the weather. The shower had really good water pressure! Having spare blankets within easy access was really good.

Love the experience of the self check in but careful with the name used for booking because I forgot and it took me a while at the machine. Every thing is self serve and I love the feeling of privacy this way. I love thé hôtel-hostel vibe because I’m travelling with my wife but we wanted a bit of hostel feel without sharing a room with others.

The hotel is only several hundred metres from the train station and comfortably within walking distance of the canal, so the location was excellent. It was spotlessly clean and comfortable. We would recommend it to all visitors to Otaru.

They offer free coffee and the restroom is clean and tidy. The numbers of wall sockets are sufficient.
