The hotel room was nice, there is noise transfer a little between rooms. I could hear someone blow drying their hair in the room next to mine. The onsen that is in the hotel on first floor is rather small and a little old looking, fits maybe 4 people at one time. You do get free access to the grand hotel onsen just across the street which is large and very nice. I would suggest skipping the adex onsen and just go to the onsen across the street. It has a nice little bakery when you walk in, good coffee. All the staff were helpful when checking in/out and with the bus schedule. This is very central area to walk to hell Valley and the foot bath. Would recommend and stay again.

Walkable from the bus station about less than ten minutes. It's a self checkin so they will email you a code, very easy to check in. Hotel was central and right across from the grand bath. They gave me a card to access and it was great. Bathroom is clean in the hotel room. But I would recommend using the grand bath. The room itself was clean, bed a bit hard but i was only there to sleep. Just be aware you will smell the sulfur. But more like a lingering sent. Overall it's a good hotel I would stay again.

Pros: Rooms cost half the price of daiichi takimotokan across the road, but we can use its grand bath for free. The hotel also has its own bath in the basement.
The location is super convenient, and is very close to Jigokudani.
There are 2 washers and 2 dryers provided which are very useful for travellers.

Cons: There was a recent renovation, but I don't think the rooms were renovated much. The furniture show some wear and tear, and the amenities (such as switches) are distinctly old school.
The public bath in the basement is very old and grimy-looking, which put me off.
The 2 washers and 2 dryers are not enough when there are many guests. I was there at an off-peak time, and already I had to queue and wait for a few hours to use them.

If you can't book Daichi Takimoto, get the Inn.

Wanted to book the Daichi Takimoto Hotel but it is fully book, so if you can't get it it's probably worth to book the takimoto Inn. basically clean with basic amenities free 3 small welcome sweets my son ate it all, it come with free access to the onsen area at daichi takimoto which is their sister company. The bed is good, dinner is surprisingly yummy, bfast is simple. One thing is the heater in the room cannot be control which make the room very hot n stuffy. We stayed during Jan. Shout out for the professional attitude to the man that serve us while check in, smooth fast n detailed. Bought the bear park ticket from the hotel which is cheaper too.

Terrible Rooms! Migrane from heater sound!

My biggest peeve is that from 9pm+ well into past midnight, there was a very loud clanking sound. I thought it came from outside someone was sawing some wood or throwing garbage or doing some work. Little did I realise that it was from the heater in the room!!! Gave me a massive migraine, and shot my blood pressure up from the massive noise which took me the next morning to shake it off. Called the front desk and guy couldnt speak English n say sorry n put down the phone. I tried to bear with it but really couldnt. Went to reception n changed rooms at 1am.

Also: Light outside initial room was blown out (so dark). Toilet needs a makeover cos rusty/dirty grout. Walls are dirty.

Room has no aircon, only an automated heating machine and the room is SOOOO HOT!! It was like a sauna! So I had to open the room window. And only then the room temp became manageable.

Breakfast ends by 8.30am.. So good luck if you’re on vacation and want to sleep in.

Only positives:
Mr Kuro gave me really good directions to get back to Sapporo by bus.

Place is near to Jigokudani- 5min walk.

Dinner half-board- the salmon sashimi is really good!

Overall, the place really needs a facelift. Majorly.

It's perfectly located at the onsen street which near to most of the tourist attraction. Hell Valley is just 5-8 minutes walk away while the face changing ghost statue is just 2 minutes walk away. This hotel serve a good selection of buffet dinner and breakfast, guests are allowed to use onsen bath in Daichi Takimoto which is heavenly good! However the room inn itself is a bit rundown, the setting is so oldschool and bathroom is very small, nevertheless we still hv a good night sleep. Perhaps the room should be light up brighter and the bathroom need a renovation, it would be a very good choice with these improvement.

Can’t beat the location and its affiliation with the Daichii Takamotokan (“Onsen heaven”) across the street made its shortcomings tolerable, to say the least. The bathroom was dated and needed a washlet and newer fixtures. The breakfast and dinner buffets were great and reasonably priced. Staff was very friendly and spoke good English. Also we were close to the hikes into the volcanic areas and were lucky to be there on a Friday night for the Demon/pyrotechnics show. A fantastic and relaxing place to unwind for a few days on a hectic tour. We would stay here again.

Decent room with great location

This is a really old hotel. Do not expect the modern amenities you'd find in major cities in Japan eg heated WC seats and bidet, fast internet speeds etc. Bathroom is as small as the budget hotels in Tokyo but the room size was decent for two adults. It helps to book two-separate beds if you want more space. Although it is old, looks and feels dated but it is maintained well. Breakfast was of the standard fare. The public onsen was great but located in the basement level so kind of spooky if you are alone :-) . Do not see the need to walk over to the sister hotel. Location is great. Walking distance (5-10 minutes) to Hell Valley and the main street for food and some souvenir shopping.

Basic and aged hotel, but good for onsen

Takimoto Inn is 40 years old, and it does show its age. Hotel needs sprucing up, but it is worth staying there for access to its sister hotel's heavenly onsen facilities. Room toilet is tiny but that's ok; can always shower in the hotel's onsen or sister hotel's. Staff are generally friendly and efficient. Breakfast and dinner included in half-board was good though food selection wasn't wide.

Location is close to Jigokudani and the Dai-ichi Takimotokan bus stop..just make sure the bus you are boarding goes to the Dai-ichi Takimotokan bus stop and doesn't end at the Noboribetsu bus terminal, or you are in for an uphill trek.

All in, Takimoto Inn is decent for a one night's stay to enjoy what Noboribetsu has to offer.

Budget Hotel near Jigokudani and Bear Ranch

One of the budget hotels near Noberibetsu attractions like the Jigokudani (地狱谷) and the Bear Ranch which offers the basic amenities though the private toilet is quite small.
Did not know Jigokudani was so near the hotel and the hotel offerred Bear Ranch tickets at a discount. The Bear Ranch shuttle bus picked us at our hotel once we purchased the tickets and they dropped us at the bus station after our visit.
The hotel managers speak good English and one of the Managers replied my emails very promptly on my enquiry before my trip. He even helped me to answer enquiry on Lake Toya as the hotel at Lake Toya that I booked did not answer my enquiries at all.
The complimentary breakfast was nice and we even had lunch there after visiting Jigokudani before we went to the Bear Ranch.
It was a waste that we did not go to the complimentary Onsen in the hotel and the more glamorous sister hotel opposite as we were too tired after we reached the hotel after a long flight and train journey.

\"Room\" for Improvement

The room was out-dated and needed a good renovation badly. The toilet was extremely small and I felt like changing the tap for them for free. The ventilation in the toilet is covered with thick dust. It didn't justify the high price they charged.

The restaurant for breakfast and dinner was small and we had to wait for more than half an hour to be assigned a table for 2 for dinner. We enjoyed the buffet breakfast and dinner though.

The location was good but there were other hotels with equally good location to choose from nearby. We enjoyed using the onsen at Dai-ichi and it was the best onsen throughout our trip.

We stayed 5 nights - for using the onsen opposite

This hotel is approaching its use-by-date but the room design will prevent effective remodeling. Staff very helpful and friendly. The great advantage of the hotel for onsen lovers is that the facilities in the hotel across the road can be used and they are magnificent. In our walks we saw a deer on the road - forests surround the area. The small village is congested with hotels, a consequence of the thermal area - all immaculate in the usual Japanese manner of course. Don't patronize the bear house - poor beasts.
