Tsuruga Besso Hinanoza offers a luxurious Japanese hot-spring experience on the shores of Lake Akan. The spacious rooms include a private open-air bath, a living area with sofa, free Wi-Fi and a flat-screen TV. Rooms at Akan Tsuruga Besso Hinanoza mix traditional design with modern facilities, featuring tatami (woven-straw) flooring and shoji paper screens but also a DVD player and full Western bathroom. Akandake-jinja Shrine is just 150 metres from the hotel, and Ainu Kotan Folk Village is 750 metres away. Kushiro Airport is an 80-minute bus ride from the property. Guests remove their shoes at the entrance, and use a kimono and Japanese socks within the hotel. The hotel has a quiet “listening room” for musical enjoyment and a relaxed library. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the hotel. A Japanese breakfast and multi-course kaiseki dinner are served at the restaurant. The Bar pours drinks at a long counter made from a single tree.

    My husband and I stayed for one night and were blown away! The staff are exceptional and go out of their way for your every need. They even sent some breakfast to my room when I wasn't feeling well enough to go to the restaurant for breakfast.

    Meals were good with quality ingredients. Room was comfortable and warm with plenty of space but at that price point, we would expect no less. I would rate it more highly if it had costed half of what I paid.

    Excellent services! We like all the facilities in the hotel, especially the rooftop onsen overviewing the lake and hot stone spa. The meals are amazing also!
