Very spacious room, comfortable bed, big shower, access to clean and nice public bath, extremely helpful receptionists who managed easily our non-standard trip - thank you!!!

Location was great, comfortable size for family of 3 adults and 3 kids. Nice to have a sofa area to rest. Kids loved the bunk beds. Each bunk bed has its own charging point and reading light. We managed to store our luggage (self service) at the storeroom while we headed to the market for lunch. 7-11 was nearby. Comfy pyjamas, a great place for a night stay before heading to the ski resort. Easy to call for a taxi.

Breakfast was full of variety and flavors, lovely presentation highlighting many Hokkaido products. The bed was very comfortable. The staff were all wonderful to deal with. The entire facility is beautiful from the artwork, the lighting, the stained glass. I would stay here again any day. Close to the canal and a variety of restaurants and shops.

If you're into shopping and eating, there are a lot of stores and restaurants. Other than that there wasn't a whole lot to see for us. The canal and warehouse district seems a bit overrated and too hyped up for us. We were there one afternoon and evening and that was enough for us. In all fairness, we didn't do a lot of research beforehand, in terms of things to do and places to visit, since we had only limited time. Unfortunately, we missed the Otaru Denuki-koji area, which has a lot of cute, small restaurants.

Otaru is a great spot for skiers with several resorts close by. An interesting and picturesque city with sea and mountains and good shopping. Ate in some little one-table restaurants in food alleys, a most interesting experience and great food. Also went to Pepe's restaurant, worth booking!

Otaru is an amazing and charming town that is a hidden gem on Hokkaido. The surrounding countryside is beautiful, especially along the coast, and best of all you're within an hour drive to several great mountains.

A Soulful Blend of History and Innovation

A Soulful Blend of History and Innovation Otaru is an exceptional city, an old harbor town with stunning sea views and beautifully preserved architecture. Walking through its streets, I felt transported into the past, surrounded by buildings that reflect how ancient Japanese communities lived, worked, and innovated. The craftsmanship and simplicity of their old technologies seem to echo in today’s advanced systems, as if modern Japan grew directly from this timeless foundation. It was my first time experiencing such a deep connection between tradition and progress. The city’s atmosphere gave my soul rest. I felt genuinely happy the moment I saw Otaru’s vibe—peaceful, authentic, and quietly powerful. I highly recommend Otaru to anyone seeking inspiration, reflection, or a glimpse into the roots of Japan's technological spirit.

We did glass blowing at a great place called Il Ponte - made a glass each to take home! Also spent an afternoon Kayaking nearby at Shioya beach with Max at Sunnyside Up -well worth doing with amazing scenery and even a swim at a beach! Also found a great little place for dinner that locals go to called Summi's Grill in a little back alley near the Sun arcade. Met a couple of locals who go there every day!

It's a charming city, so walking around the Sakaimachi neighbourhood was fun and relaxing. Watch out for day trippers from Sapporo though, which could crowd up the shops and restaurants. Dinner was a challenge - many restaurants refused to take our reservation and we had to be turned away from them.

have very fond memories of my stays at the Grand Bell Hotel in Otaru. I don’t understand the negative reviews I’ve seen online. The room was indeed small, but perfectly clean and well maintained. The staff – young, friendly, and professional – were always helpful and created a welcoming atmosphere. A place I can definitely recommend.

Interesting link to Otaru's history being the original hotel during the commercial peak of the town. Very sophisticated ambiance, and lots of great perks like the free Hokkaido wine each day. Good central location near the canal

The location is very convenient close to the heart of Otaru. The hotel rooms were also fairly large and comfortable, and the decor was beautiful, with European-style architecture.
