I went to the 14th floor restaurant Harel for breakfast after 8:00, and they had a buffet with a wide variety of dishes. They also had sushi rice and sashimi available to make seafood bowls, so I had one with sweet shrimp, squid, and scallops. However, the sashimi didn't taste very fresh, probably because it was a bit late. They also had dishes like mixed rice, curry, and ramen available, so I felt like I wouldn't get tired of the breakfast even if I stayed multiple nights. For dessert, there weren't many types of fruit available, so I had pineapple which was sweet and delicious. Lastly, I had a cup of coffee. Overall, I felt that the breakfast was very fulfilling with a wide variety of dishes and different types of rice to enjoy.

In Asahikawa, there are many Dormy Inns for business trips, but this time I stayed at another hotel for 2 nights and Dormy Inn for 1 night. The hot springs were amazing, and the breakfast was also great. It was a buffet style with plenty of seafood like scallops, sweet shrimp, squid, and salmon. I indulged in seafood to my heart's content! The soft serve ice cream for dessert was also a fun experience where you get to fill your cup from the machine yourself. The view under the clear skies was refreshing, and it was a great way to start the day.

Breakfast buffet was delicious! The menu was quite varied. The specialty roast beef was served with mountain wasabi. They also had Asahikawa ramen for breakfast. Overall, I was satisfied with the breakfast buffet at this business hotel. Surprisingly, the bread was delicious. I would like to use it again when staying in Asahikawa. The presentation was messy and didn't look appetizing, but it was quite tasty.

The plan was to go mountain climbing from a camp at "Hotel Cabin," but the weather forecast deterred amateur campers from going. We quickly decided to cancel, but then the question arose, "What should we do?" When I'm alone, decisions are made quickly, but when I'm with my wife, I choose not to get involved and wait for her to decide. She is currently looking for a high-end hotel. I was surprised to see how expensive they are. Recently, there has been a lot of movement in the area, which is why the prices are high. We initially planned to go to Kitami, but that fell through because we couldn't book a hotel there. That's why I thought the prices were high. "Is there a cheaper option?" she asked, eyes widening. "I booked a hotel in Asahikawa," I replied. Asahikawa was not on my radar, so I was truly surprised by her decision-making. I had never stayed there before. I was planning to arrive a little earlier, but the lobby was crowded as she had been eager to gather information. The procedures were quite complicated this time because we used a local discount, so we needed identification and vaccination certificates. Our room was on the second floor, and although my wife had good things to say, it felt cramped. The natural hot spring bath was nice, but the lack of taste or smell was a bit disappointing. The hot water flowed abundantly, maybe it was a circulation system? At the restaurant where we had dinner, the waitress commented on the coupon, "You're staying at Cabin, right? I often use the bath there too." The breakfast buffet had specified times, and there was a long line. The bamboo shoot rice was delicious. Bacon is a parameter for measuring deliciousness for me, and it was good here. The tamagoyaki was sweet, as was the shio-koji and kamaboko from Otaru. But this sweetness was good. The tarako was small but of good quality. The raw egg was delicious. Don't come to the breakfast venue wearing perfume, it ruins the food. The buffet was really delicious.

I used the Do-min discount a while ago and went to Asahikawa (*'ω'*). This is the breakfast buffet at the hotel where I stayed. I visited in April, but the April breakfast buffet was the "Sapporo-Ishikari Fair" (lol) Unexpected local gourmet (lol) The variety of dishes was all delicious, and the DIY seafood bowl was still attractive ♡ Especially, the scallops that were thickly cut were of high quality. Also, the soy sauce ramen was delicious with a classic Asahikawa ramen taste!! I ate until my stomach was full ♪ The view from the 14th floor was nice, and even at a late hour, the dishes were replenished properly, so I could take food with peace of mind ♪ The breakfast was delicious, and the presence of a large public bath was also attractive. I was satisfied with the discounted stay with the Do-min discount (*‘ω‘ *)

This is my second stay at this hotel. There are no negatives about this hotel. One thing I always look forward to is the breakfast. This time it was Osaka Fair. They had mini pork buns, beef tendon stew, fried takoyaki, and kushikatsu. There were 4-5 varieties of kushikatsu, but it was a bit disappointing that there was no meat or seafood like okra or lotus root. The pork buns seemed like they were store-bought and the beef tendon stew was nothing special. There was also seafood like scallops, salmon, squid, and shrimp, but I wasn't impressed with the freshness. The salted cod roe and squid were delicious though. Overall, compared to other hotels, the satisfaction level is high, but since it's a CABIN hotel, the expectations are higher. Soaking in the hot spring, sleeping, soaking in the hot spring again, starting the day, and enjoying a delicious breakfast makes me happy. CABIN is the best!

The hotel is close to the station and the bustling downtown area, and it has a hot spring. The breakfast at this hotel was delicious. If staying in Asahikawa, this hotel should definitely be considered. Asahikawa has many hotels where you can enjoy a tasty breakfast, and this is one of them. To avoid crowds, they asked for the breakfast time during check-in. I entered the breakfast area between 7:30 and 8:00, and it wasn't too crowded. I have stayed at CABIN in Obihiro many times, but this was my first time in Asahikawa. I checked out the various food options available. The melon caught my eye, probably because it's in season. The roast beef here is better than in Obihiro. There was seafood like scallops, squid, salmon, and shrimp. They also had sushi rice, curry, ramen, fried chicken, and other common breakfast items. There were quite a few dessert options for breakfast. They even had Asahikawa's famous chicken dish called "shinko-yaki". Overall, it was a delicious breakfast. The location, room, hot spring, and breakfast were all great.

I stayed at Premier Hotel CABIN Asahikawa for 2 nights with breakfast included. On the first night, I skipped breakfast as I headed to Biei early in the morning by train. I had breakfast on the second morning before returning home. The breakfast venue was "Restaurant Harel." It was a buffet-style breakfast. The restaurant is advertised as an observation restaurant, and indeed, you can enjoy a magnificent view of Asahikawa while having breakfast through the glass windows. They also have solid COVID-19 measures in place. I was looking forward to soup curry, but the menu seemed to change, and they served Keema curry that day. Melon and ice cream were also available for breakfast. It was a feeling that you wouldn't expect from the reasonable accommodation cost. The hotel is conveniently located near Asahikawa Station. It seems to be quite popular as it was very crowded. Thank you for the meal. (Review rating ★3.15)

A hotel near JR Asahikawa Station in Asahikawa City. I stayed here for one night on my way back to Sapporo from Abashiri. The name has changed from "Paco" but the facilities inside remain the same. The price for one night is not high, and it includes a natural hot spring and a satisfying breakfast buffet, which is why I have stayed here several times in the past. This time, after a long time, I stayed again and the breakfast buffet was still delicious with a wide variety of options. The building is a bit old, but it is conveniently located, making it a good base for business or sightseeing.

It's been about a year and a half since my last stay in Asahikawa. This time, I stayed at the Premier Hotel, which is a 2-3 minute walk from Asahikawa Station. The reason I chose this hotel is because the price for 3 people was only 5,700 yen, which is very cheap for a triple room (smoking) with no meals included. The parking fee was 750 yen, and with the use of coupons and points, the total cost for the room and parking was 5,250 yen. They no longer offer the 1,200 yen breakfast buffet due to COVID-19, but instead provide a 500 yen bento box which you can pick up on the 13th floor at a designated time. The bento box includes warm miso soup, juice, plenty of side dishes, rice, and you can also add natto, seaweed, and furikake. The standout items in the bento box were the Genghis Khan (grilled lamb) and tarako (cod roe). It was a nice experience to enjoy breakfast in the room without having to go out.

In Asahikawa, I stayed at this hotel for 3 nights and used the morning buffet twice. There are not many people around Asahikawa Station, so besides convenience stores, the only option for meals starting at 8 o'clock are beef bowl shops and hamburger shops. The buffet costs over 1,000 yen per person, and the menu is fairly typical. The highlight seems to be the roast beef. It's nice that you can drink Katsuobushi broth and the salted fish roe is quite tasty, which is very Hokkaido-like. You can also have curry for breakfast, with one being a meat-filled curry and the other being soup curry, offering a nice change of pace.

I stayed with a breakfast included plan for one night. I could overlook the station from the top floor restaurant. It had a stylish atmosphere, but the restaurant name was "Tomato". In addition to chair seats, there were also tatami seats, so families with children were using it. The menu had a large variety and it was rare to have daily and monthly changing menus! Among the breakfast buffets I have used so far, it stands out for promptly replenishing items when they run out. While there were local specialties, the taste was just average. There was nothing particularly delicious (laughs).

Staying at a hotel in Asahikawa has been a recent trend for me in the past few years. Previously, Asahikawa was just a transit point for me, not a place to stay overnight. Most accommodations were youth hostels, such as Sunpiller YH in Nayoro, Moshiri-pa YH in Wakkanai, Ryuhyo no Oka YH in Abashiri, and Iwanai-betsu YH in Shiretoko Iwanai-betsu. However, after discovering a fantastic sushi restaurant called Sushi Minato in Asahikawa, I started choosing to stay in Asahikawa as much as possible. This made it convenient for me to visit Sushi Minato (laughs). Due to my age, I started feeling hesitant and confused about staying in youth hostels, so I began looking for business hotels in Asahikawa with single rooms and large communal baths. Two hotels stood out to me: Dormy Inn Asahikawa and Premier Hotel CABIN Asahikawa, which used to be Hotel Paco Asahikawa. Premier Hotel CABIN Asahikawa is more convenient due to its proximity to Asahikawa Station, making it very useful when I need to leave early in the morning. For example, last September, I departed at 4 am and arrived at Shiragin-so by 5 am for a revenge climb two days later. In this case, I woke up early to catch the 6:45 am train on the Rumoi Line. The hotel has a wonderful large communal bath, sauna, and cold water bath, perfect for refreshing oneself. After going through sauna, cold water bath, and a short break three times, I feel refreshed and ready to go out for a meal. The hot spring water is drawn directly from a natural carbonated hydrogen carbonate spring on the hotel premises. The sauna is spacious and hygienic, with a wooden design. The absence of a TV is great! Check-in starts at 3 pm, but you can start using the hot spring from 2 pm, which is very convenient. The meals are served buffet-style, featuring local ingredients from Asahikawa and surrounding areas, including the brand rice "Nanatsuboshi" made from home-grown rice. The menu includes a mix of Japanese and Western dishes, as well as local specialties like Genghis Khan and curry, and even Asahikawa ramen on certain days. You can also enjoy the buffet for an additional 1,200 yen with the room-only plan.

I stayed at a hotel in Asahikawa for a revisit in October 2018. As usual, I stayed without meals. I have reviewed the hotel's bar "Bar Owls" and "Bar Lovers" before, so I apologize for omitting the food review. The bar offers a beautiful view of the night scenery as it faces Ichijo Street and stands out. I changed from "Hotel Paco" to "Premier Hotel Cabin". I relaxed in the spacious natural hot spring in the basement, but the bathtub is small. There is a sauna as well. Of course, I had a beer from the hotel vending machine after soaking in the hot spring. Unfortunately, there was no milk available. I ended the day with a beer at a drinking party. Unless you have a breakfast pack, the breakfast for 1,200 yen is expensive, so it might be better to have a beef bowl at the shopping park or use a convenience store. The hotel is in a very convenient location in the center of Asahikawa city.

From roast beef and French toast to soft serve ice cream waffles, starting the day with such rich and delicious dairy products really boosts my mood. Milk, yogurt, all dairy products are so tasty.

I chose the breakfast buffet restaurant on the 14th floor of the hotel where I stayed. They had a variety of dishes including seafood, roast beef, fried food, salad, soup, and yogurt. It was a mix of Japanese and Western cuisines.

Breakfast had a variety of options, but it was crowded and items ran out quickly. The hotel itself was comfortable, with a nice bath that, while not large, had a gentle hot spring that was kind to the skin.
