Hotel Kikuya

very casual, family/child friendly hotel very friendly staffs that glow with traditional Japanese hospitality and culture quiet, yet very central / walkable location to marketplace, JR, restaurant district spacious Japanese style tatami room However, need to set realistic expectation, this hotel has nothing fancy, may even be dated to some people

close to all ammenities and Hakodate morning market

2 minutes walk to the seafood morning market. 5 minutes to JR station and airport limousine bus station. Many restaurants nearby.

Strategic location... Whole body massage...Worth with money

Location wise is good, however, the conditions of the room is needed to be improved.

The room is very small but well designed. Comfortable beds. We missed the breakfast by a few minutes. In fact I tended to just grab some boiled egg but was not allowed, due to lack of communication.

My stay at Kikuya was great. The location of the hotel is top notch, it is right next to the Hakodate JR station, and it takes just a couple of minutes to walk to the closest city tram station. The famous Asahi fish market is right behind the hotel. There are several restaurants and convenience stores around the neighborhood too, so no need to worry about where to get food or necessities. We feel safe walking around at night without problem. The hotel is family run, not new, but very well maintained. The room is clean, a little small but typical for Japanese hotel room. Hotel staffs are friendly and helpful, but speak very little English. Overall I enjoyed staying at Kikuya and it will be my top choices if I visited Hakodate again.

This is my aecond time stay Kikuya hotel. Located nearby train station, morning market and 7-11. Room prepare well and clean.

very convenient for walking in the area..local bus stops right in front for easy transport..hot spring baths very good...food was ok but not too exciting and the same each day...room was a bit too hot even for winter..

Although the hotel is not a new building, the service and condition is average to good. Service is good. Breakfast is western style (coffee and bread) and is good.

Good hotel with the price paid. Simple yet comfortable.

Best part is the owners speak english and are very helpful. They called cab for me explaining itvia difficult to wait for cab out in cold winter. The location is great. However the room is too squeezy for my family of 5 and the toilet is one of the smallest I have seen.

Room was really large for a Japanese hotel room though the bathroom was very small as expected. Location is really good - close to JR station, a 7-11, fish market and tram stop / bus station. This is a budget hotel that has seen better days but it suited me for a 1 night stay.

Stayed in hotel kikuya for one night - Hakodate was a transit stop for us from Tokyo to Sapporo. The staff was friendly and the room was clean (though it's a bit dated). It's fine to stay there for one night as it is so close to the train station. We would stay somewhere nicer if we are to spend more than one night in Hakodate.

The location is key for this little hotel. It's just a few minutes walk from the JR station, so any type of public transportation that Hakodate has to offer is at your doorstep. As for the room, it was nothing fancy, but more than okay for a solo traveller like me. There's a single bed, private bathroom with amenities (no hairdryer, but I didn't ask). It was a bit chilly when I checked-in and needed to take a nap. So I went to tell one of the staff, who seemed very eager to help and turned on the central heating system for me right away. All in all, this hotel may not be the best place from my trip, but I was happy with mostly everything during my stay.

Had a room with tatami-style bedroom. Great service and good location. Good value for the money.

Property are old, room were small but location is good; close to JR station, walking distance to morning markets, Bay Area etc

No comment for the stay in this Hotel......locality is ok but the room too small for us ...

Walking distance to Hakodate station, tram station and morning market. For big luggage traveler, you can take elevator from basement (car park).

Overall I'm a bit disappoint of this hotel. as we first arrived there's no elevator and we are living in the 5th floor. so we won't be able to carry our luggage from stairs. So we have no choice but to left our luggage in the lobby. At the same time the elevator is repairing and we have to carry those from a snowy day to just get in the lobby for checkin. The staff is so kind however this hotel looks like he is the only person to manage. Besides the bath tube hot water is very unstable, be careful as it will suddenly turns to a really HOT water!!! My hubby was dropped in the bath tube because of this! Lucky he didn't get much hurt. A pretty old style hotel, and one thing is there's NO hair dryer!!! I'm a bit shock as I'm a lady and for sure I can't let my hair dry at night naturally. Also the bad is terrible is really hard and we don't have a comfortable sleep at night. so I guess I won't be back for sure.
