Hinode Park Lavender Garden Tours

Absolutely brilliant hotel. Extremely helpful staff. Terrific Fitness Center. A wonderful room with plenty of space to actually unpack (sometimes rare in Japanese hotel rooms), comfortable bedding, and a state-of-the-art bathroom. Breakfast revolved around locally grown food. It was both tasty and interesting. My guess is that the place really shines during ski season with its spa, fireplace in the central bar area and location. Only downside was that there is construction going and the hotel parking lot would only hold perhaps 15 cars. With it not being ski season during our visit, the hotel was using the ski lift parking loft a couple blocks up the hill to handle overflow.

The hotel is nice and clean and good size. It’s also close to the Furano train station. Furano is pretty small so you will need to walk a short distance to most places. This hotel seems to cater to Chinese and other tour groups which can make the public areas and breakfast areas very congested and LOUD! Other than that, the stay was nice and the rooftop had great views of Furano.
