This hotel was a last minute addition to our trip. It's super close to some great hikes, set in a quiet onsen town and near a ropeway to get up to the top of the nearby mountains for amazing views. Food options in the hotel were many... so everyone was happy.

Overall, loved our stay here!!! They even had a bingo game which we joined in... pretty funny. I won and gave my prize away.

Onsen were also super nice!!! Oh, and the sound of the river all night was so soothing while we slept!!! Loved the Sounkyo Onsen Choyo Resort.

Room a little dated but clean and functional. Not many staff speak English but we managed. The buffet spreads for breakfast and dinner was above average but catered to tour groups. The onsen both indoor and outdoor was good. My only gripe is when many people are using the water at the same time, the room bathroom water pressure drops to a trickle, even having no water at times. This only happens when bathers use the onsen showers in big numbers.

Very Nice Stay

after my wife did a thorough research and reading every reviews, we made a decision to stay at this resort hotel. We were very pleased with out decision. Everything exceeded expectation plus the therapeutic benefit of curing chronic back pain was gone after staying here. The bed was very comfortable and onsen water is of top quality and 2 different variety. We had a great stay and service was great. Half board dinner and breakfast were great.

Great Location for the Ice Festival

The included dinner and breakfast was very good. The buffet dinner had alot of choices and so did the breakfast.The location of the hotel is ideal for the Sounkyo Waterfall Ice Festival which is only a 10minute walk from the hotel. We also liked the hotel shuttle bus provided from Sapporo, very convenient.

Good, but sister hotel better

Overall a nice experience - we went half board and both breakfast and dinner were good. They have a sister hotel that allows you to have dinner there, or visit the onsen. Both dinner and onsen were better in their sister hotel.

Good location to the mountain and easy walking to the cable car for mountain access. Next time, we will stay in the sister hotel

The room is spacious. However, the staff is not so helpful. We requested them to make a reservation at a restaurant serving crabs and they said it's fully booked. But when we went there to ask, there were tables available. Also when we arrived, we were asked to park at a carpark 2 blocks from the hotel. We noted there was a carpark right at the hotel building. We tried asking the reception if we could park our car at hotel and she said there is height restriction. However, I don't think my car was over the limit.

Upon arrival we felt like we had arrived at the Shining hotel just as described in an earlier review, but at 3pm its lights on and showtime! Buses and cars arrive and the reception desk comes to life! After a botched car rental ( thanks Expedia : ( - we took the bus from Kamikawa which was easy and cheap. The hotel onsen was great, we went five times over our two days! Breakfast and Dinner buffet were included - the egg omelet was my fave breakfast item. Loads of food choices. We walked to the Ryusei waterfalls and took the ropeway and chairlift and then hiked to the top of Kurodake. The town itself was quiet - June 26, almost deserted - but a stunning place to hike and onsen. Took the bus back to Kamikawa with ease. It’s an older crowd at the hotel, regimented meal times, but a really enjoyable experience.

A major renovation is overdue. Everything needs to be replaced except for the helpful front desk staff.
The food is of dismal quality though they seem to churn them out in quantity.
The onsen has very slippery floors, more so than other hotels’ onsens. Not a hotel I would recommend to anyone .

The hotel is really old and due for a makeover. The room and bathroom are not very clean. Place smells stale too. The food served in the restaurant was edible but not great. I couldn't wait to leave the hotel. If you are driving, you should consider staying somewhere like Asahikawa with more hotel options.

Quantity over quality

The stay was okay. I'm not sure if this is the case for all the hotels in the area but this facility seems to cater to Chinese and Korean tour groups who bring the volume of people that help this relatively large hotel stay in business. Facility was clean but a bit tired. Need to get to the onsen and have dinner early to beat the crowds.

Average stay but good onsen

We booked this hotel a bit last minute as we changed our destination from Asahidake to Kurodake when the Asahidake Ropeway announced it will be closed for maintenance on the days of our travel. While we enjoyed Sounkyo area the hotel was average. We stayed two nights and had half board, the buffet variety were virtually the same each day. For breakfast, staple like bread is not available. I do understand they mainly cater to local tourists. On the other hand we enjoyed the onsen experience especially the outdoor one.

A nice hotel in a beautiful setting

This big hotel is a little bit old-fashioned. However, overall the facilities were good and the buffet dinner and breakfast were very good. It is possible to book a private onsen bath for an extra fee, which is a very pleasant experience.

We would definitely stay in this hotel again if we have the chance of visiting Sounkyo again.

Use of sister hotel's onsen and great atmosphere!

Excellent atmosphere and buffet - the international buffet was of reasonable standard. The hotel made an effort to create a positive atmosphere by including activities such as free shuttle to an outdoor lighting exhibition - it was an added bonus when my friend and I saw a family of wild deers at the location! The hotel also provided a bingo activity where all visitors can join. Most, if not all, participants will win gift!

Another added benefit is the free shuttle service to its sister hotel's onsen!

The resort sits on a large premises, and conveniently located near to the Daisetsuzan Sounkyo - Kurodake Ropeway. We went in December, which is apparently a low season, too late for autumn colours, and too early for the ice festival. The great thing is that the resort is relatively empty and we were able to obtain a room with great pricing, and my family were almost alone in the nearby town playing with the pristine snow.
Dinner and breakfast were included with an extremely vast spread. The public onsen is the most beautiful in my whole trip of Hokkaido. I love onsen which is open to nature and facing the snow. We could also have free use of the onsen at a higher class sister hotel, the Choyotei nearby, with the free shuttle ferrying guests of the 2 hotels every 30 minutes.
Last but not least, we would like to highlight the extremely helpful english speak front desk staff that made our stay so pleasant.

The property is a little old but the place is very clean and well-kept. The onsen is maintained very well. Enjoy the outdoor onsen!
The staff are very friendly, polite and helpful!
The hotel is set against a magnificent backdrop in nature! Very beautiful environment and simply love the wilderness there.

Beautiful view from our room of the fall foliage! Loved the traditional room but with normal beds. Onsen was a great experience. We also booked a private onsen which was nice to experience. The dinner and breakfast buffet was tasty. Would recommend to others to stay and visit again. Keep in mind the hotel is a bit dated and smells like sulphur (eggs) from the water but it’s to be expected.

Spiky shower

Great location, and shuttle bus from Sapporo included.
Buffet breakfast/dinner is decent, as is Onsen. Room is a bit dated though, and the shower head needs changing BADLY. The water comes out hard and spiky. Not what you’d expect from a spa hotel.
Otherwise good. Beautiful setting in autumn.

Nice fall color in the beginning of Oct.

The best is to book hotel’s free shuttle from/to Sapporo or Asahikawa. And you can book 8am bus to Ginga no Taki (Milky Way Falls) and Ryusei no Taki (Shooting Star Falls). Meals are nice with many varieties to choose from. A long walk to the ropeway station.

Good: We stayed 2 nights in this hotel and were able to upgrade our Japanese style room (8 tatami mats) with an outdated bathroom to a larger updated one on the 6th floor facing the mountain and a creek that had a Western style bedroom and Japanese style living/sitting area. Staff although not particularly versed in English were helpful and accommodating. Although only one location for onsen at B1 the outdoor ones were very pleasant. It was also great to be able to use onsens at their sister property Choyotei where open air onsens on the 7th floor were our favorite ones in the area. Food at the buffet was varied and we also enjoyed a nightly bingo game. 711 is across the road which made it convenient to use ATM although hotel had a pretty large onsite store for souvenirs and incidentals.

Not so great: Although food at the buffet was abundant it was Exactly the same both days. It was ok for 1-2 days but we got bored quickly.

An onsen resort hotel which is nice for people who have time to spend within the facilities.
We spent only one night and had to leave early to visit tourist spots around Sounkyo. The shuttle bus service was useless because its timetable did not allow us to use it. If you only spend only 1N and the free shuttle bus rides from Asahikawa Station arrives at the resort at 4pm and leaves at 9:40am what is the benefit of using it? The room is comfortable with a nice waterfall stream sounds from the windows. The dinner and breakfast had varieties and good unless you didn't have enough time to try them like us. You need at least 2 nights to stay and visit famous tourist spots around Sounkyo. The onsen was so relax and nice.

Expensive,

Hotel is good but expensive, dinner is OK, breakfast is bad, feel like eating in a canteen. Breakfast is only served at 7.30am., after tour groups have taken their meal. As it gets dark at 5pm, it is important for us to have an early start. Otherwise, we may as well drive from asahikawa, much cheaper. Hotel is next to river with excellent fall foliage from our room. Would be nice if there is an outdoor cafe, area to enjoy the view. We are upgraded to a suite, but still feel lacking

Lovely onsen in a peaceful mountain location

Clean and comfortable room - We stayed in the western twin room which was not big but sufficient for 2 pax. No wifi in room though. Onsen - Great onsen experience with multiple pools. The outdoor onsen had a relaxing view of the forest around. We also loved that there was an option to try the other onsen (much smaller though) at the other Choyo hotel which was 5 minutes drive by a shuttle bus. Food - Shabu-shabu and sukiyaki option at the buffet dinner was interesting. Free flow soft serve ice cream was great! Spread was decent but nothing to shout home about. Hiking - Hotel was about 15minutes walk from a nice 1-hour (back and fro) trail walk called Momijidani to see a waterfall. Great way to enjoy the fresh forest air and see the beautiful forest around the area. Not recommended for elderly though as the last 5 minutes of the trail was slightly steeper.

Convenient, decent onsen, not that special

Hotel was very acceptable, and was in a good location for those looking to enter Daisetsuzan NP via Mount Kuro (Kurodake). With that being said, the entire town of Sounkyo is very convenient for that purpose and this hotel is probably not any better than most of the other choices in the area. Dinner was great though and the staff were very helpful. IF you're looking to climb the national park's mountain, I recommend speaking with the visitor center staff (near the chair lift), and not this hotel's staff.
