Shimokita Peninsula, Aomori Prefecture hotel rooms at the Independent

"New hotel next to JR Hakodate station and few minutes walk to morning market. Pillow bar ( first come first serve) and great selection of bathroom amenities. Can weigh luggage by asking front desk. Taqbin service at station Everything perfect! "

"This is a really exceptional hotel. Convenient location a short walk from the train station and many tourist sites. The hotel felt brand new and was spotless. Two things really make this hotel stand out. First, the rooftop onsen with views of Mt Hakodate was just fantastic. Second, the breakfast buffet is out of this world - on par with something you’d get in Las Vegas. You probably shouldn’t call it a breakfast buffet as there were so many high quality food options with the fresh seafood being the star attraction. It’s worth stopping in Hakodate just to have this hotel experience!"

"Location was great as it was near the train station and stone’s throw away from the morning market. We took the room with lounge access and it was convenient to come back to the hotel in the afternoon/night for some coffee, snacks or drinks. "

"Close to JR Aomori Station, Furukawa and Auga Markets. Typical Toyoko Inn hotel, small rooms but clean. Free breakfast was great! Could hear guests in other rooms talking very loud. "

"This was a nice place to stay for us usually don't stay this long in one hotel but this was good."

"Love the comfortable beds at APA hotels. Rooms are small but clean and well designed. All good!"

"Good base for Hakodate stay. Easy walking distance from JR station."

"This hotel is about 15 minutes away from the train station by bus, near Goryoukaku. It's close to the famous department store Marui, Star Share, and Mr. Doughnuts. There are many good restaurants near by and the airport bus stops a few minutes walk at Goryoukaku 3 bus stop. Great amenities, room was spacious, sauna and a complimentary alcohol beverage, breakfast and fresh coffee are included for the guests. Prices are very reasonable and I cant ask for more. Definitely 5 stars! "
