I used GOTO to stay overnight in Asahikawa. With various discounts, I ended up paying only 1,600 yen for one night with two meals included! Asahikawa is a city hotel located in the Takasago area, offering a view of the Asahikawa Basin. The hotel has a spa (no outdoor bath) and a sauna with low temperature. Parking is free. For those who just want to read the food review, please skip to the next section. October is my birthday month, and even though I don't feel like celebrating getting older, it's a day to be grateful to my parents. Departing from Otaru, the 1-night, 2-day trip to Asahikawa covered a wide range of destinations. Looking back, on the first day, we departed from Otaru around 7 am, stopped at the Michi-no-Eki Tobetsu for a toilet break, bought new rice at the Michi-no-Eki Rain Dragon, had new soba at Horonaka (located within the Ruont Onsen at the Michi-no-Eki Soba Village), visited the coldest Lake Shumarinai in Japan, ate pudding at "Brazil" in Nayoro, stopped at the Michi-no-Eki Nayoro, Michi-no-Eki Kembuchi, and arrived at the hotel at 4 pm (all on local roads). Otaru Station to Hokauchi - 187km, Hokauchi to Lake Shumarinai - 64km, Nayoro to Asahikawa Park Hotel - 80km. Total distance on the first day was 331km. On the second day, we departed from Asahikawa Park Hotel around 8 am, stopped at Kamikawa for a toilet break (observed brown bears), shopped at the Michi-no-Eki Takinoue, visited the Okhotsk Tower in Monbetsu, saw the clione at the science museum, experienced -20 degrees Celsius, had sashimi set meal at Marutomii in Monbetsu, ate freshly fried kamaboko at Izutsuka Suisan, shopped at the Ice Monument Station (former Monbetsu Station site), and returned to Otaru via the expressway with several rest stops. Asahikawa Park Hotel to Kamikawa via Hokauchi - 149km, Monbetsu to Otaru Station - 308km (using toll expressway from Hifukita). Total distance on the second day was 457km, making the total for the 2 days 788km. In conclusion: Hokkaido is vast! Upon entering the hotel, friendly male front desk staff greeted us. We made reservations for 3 rooms using a combination of GOTO and coupons. We used a trick to maximize discounts. The total for 3 rooms was 16,680 yen, with each room being a single room (although all rooms were actually twin rooms with 2 beds each). It's worth noting that the coupons from Jalan can be used for each reservation, and it's not illegal to make multiple reservations for different rooms on the same day. Additionally, the GOTO discount is based on the original price, so the higher the original price, the higher the discount. This led to a surprising result in our case. Overall, by splitting the reservations, we were able to maximize the discounts and get a great deal on our stay at Asahikawa Park Hotel.

I used it on the last day of my trip to Hokkaido 5 years ago. The night view from the restaurant was amazing. I remember that the salmon steak was a bit dry and difficult to eat. The retro dessert was cute. I also enjoyed the breakfast buffet.

Located on a small hill in Takasago-dai, Asahikawa City, this hotel offers a nice view of the city lights from the lobby and rooms. The room, although not very spacious, comes at a reasonable price of 15,120 yen for one night including breakfast for two adults. The highlight is the large communal bath, and there is also a nice kids' area in front of it. The breakfast buffet offers a decent variety of dishes, including Hokkaido's specialty soup curry and a unique item called "New Sensation Potato" with a sauce that I personally enjoyed. There are four different dressings for the healthy salad, including corn dressing which is not commonly found in breakfast buffets in other prefectures. The hotel also offers kids' dishes, showing that they put effort into catering to different guests. Overall, the hotel is doing a good job. I would consider staying here again if I visit Asahikawa in the future.

I used this hotel for my 3rd and 4th day of my half-week trip to Hokkaido. We stayed here and used their services. On the first night, we had a simple steak course which included salad, steak, rice, and dessert. The taste was average and the portion was a bit small. It would be better if we could have seconds on the rice. The dessert had a spelling mistake but that's okay. The service was not bad, the staff had a nice conversation with us. The view of the sunset was amazing. For breakfast, they had a buffet with a wide variety of options. I personally liked the variety of drinks they offered. The milk was delicious and the banana shake made from it was really tasty. They also had a menu for children, so the hotel is very family-friendly. Overall, I had a good experience and would like to stay here again. This was my review of "Asahikawa Park Hotel".

I went on a business trip and stayed at the "Asahikawa Park Hotel" this time. It is located on a small hill called Takasago-dai, and you can enjoy a panoramic view of Asahikawa city from the guest rooms and the buffet venue. Since I checked in very late at night, there was no dinner buffet available! Only breakfast buffet was provided. The room I stayed in was a room with a pink theme, very clean and cute. The bathroom, entrance, and room layout would surely appeal to female guests. Of course, being on a hill, you can also enjoy the night view of the city. Another distinctive feature is the large communal bath. It is a bath with tatami mats called "Mountain Japanese-style bath". The bath is covered with special water-repellent tatami mats, which are antibacterial as well. You can sit directly on them. It is not slippery, unlike tiles or stones, so there is less risk of slipping and falling, making it very friendly for families with small children. As for the breakfast buffet, there was a "Katte-don" style where you can put your favorite ingredients on top of rice. However, the main ingredients were grilled fish instead of seafood. I tried topping it with "herring," "Pacific saury," "salmon," "cod roe," "scallop," "smelt," and "pickles," then poured the special sauce over it. "Mmm, this sauce is delicious!" Other than that, the content was quite ordinary as shown in the photos.
