Guest Reviews
- Pavel (9/5): -
- Haruki (8/5): -
- Ngan (8/5): Beautiful and peaceful place❤️ - Very beautiful cottage style of staying. We love it. Just don’t understand why they didn’t provide towels. That’s we need to pay extra for it. Very quiet but is near to Otaru city
- Rosalinda (1/5): Not happy… we had to cancel 2 of 3 nights and move else where. - Near ski resort Location was bad as it is beside a main road.
Den and living area of cabin was old and did not smell good.
Chairs were old and uncomfortable.
The layout of the cabin was really off.
If you’re looking for comfort, this is not for you.
There was a particular male member of the staff that was very rude as well when we were requesting if we could shorten our stay given that the cabin was not what we expected it to be… no effort to listen, discuss and negotiate was done.
- Lyle (10/5): Beautiful place with great people working there - Front desk was extremely helpful.
- Tim (6/5): - Well located … plenty of room … could use some more insulation as v hard to heat
- 仲為 (8/5): -
- Chun Hung (7/5): -
- Sayaka (9/5): will definitely come back - the outdoor private onsen was my favourite! and that it's close to some ski resorts and great outdoor views and vibes. that the reception is only open until 6pm, and sometimes takes some time to reply. we wanted to get some firewood bubt was out of time, which is no fault of their own just wish the timing was a bit more flexible. everything else is great!
- Evan (10/5): winter wonderland - amazing staff and beautiful location. the property has everything you would need and the village is really fun to explore in the snow. only a few select restaurants within walking distance and a little far from otaru city center, but if you don’t mind taking uber or waiting for the bus it’s fine
- Jo (10/5): - Everything, it was the most picturesque location, the cabins & village were nothing like what i expected.
Our family of 8 had plenty of space with the mezzanine floors upstairs.
Kitchen was perfect for cooking meals & enjoying time together.
The facilities around the Village were exceptional. Nothing!

- Karin (8/5): Very good -
- Veselin (8/5): Very good - the onsen was great expensive
- Carina (8/5): Easy living in a cottage. Found everything we needed. Parking lot was nice to have too. -
- Julia (10/5): Comfortable and spacious apartment with an amazing private onsen. - It's very close to Asarigawaonsen ski resort, and easy to get to from Otaruchikko. The apartment was very comfortable, spacious, and very clean. The private onsen on the terrace was amazing. The place is also incredibly quiet and relaxing. Nothing.
- Maegan (10/5): Exceptional - Very good apartment with very good private onsen. Highly recommended. Not much food choices in the area.
- Dean (8/5): Very good -
- Alexis (10/5): Spacious but cozy cabin! - The spaciousness of our cabin and loft set-up accommodated our big family very well. Our kids really enjoyed the different sleeping platforms. We also liked the close proximity to the ski hill. We would have liked to stay longer to enjoy the other amenities Winkel offers (BBQing), and would definitely consider staying again. Bus access from Otaru Station is limited (runs every hour), so a cab or rental vehicle is highly recommended.
- Zack (10/5): Exceptional - Winkel Village is the perfect homestay for a peaceful and cozy getaway! The rooms are clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated, creating a relaxing atmosphere.
- Finc (10/5): Exceptional -
- Luke (10/5): Exceptional -
- Marcus (9/5): Superb -
- Lisa (8/5): Great hidden gem! - Clean and spacious with everything we needed. Great kitchen setup with all the dinnerware, cutlery, cooking utensils etc.
Great bathroom and shower.
Warm and comfortable duvets and bed linens.
Staff were lovely!
Great location with just 20 minutes by car to Sapporo Kokusai Ski resort and about 40 minutes to Kiroro and Teine. Supermarkets, convenience stores, onsens all very close by! Nothing. Although be aware that some of the cottages only have Japanese style seating on floor in the living room. It didn't bother us though!
- Simon (8/5): Very good - Great location for Asarigawa Onsen ski resort. Just a short walk to the lifts.
- Paul (7/5): Good -
- Ng (7/5): Good - Silent, clean and tidy, near to ski centre rental price is quite expensive and no washing machine
- Anssi (9/5): Superb -
- Hunter (10/5): Exceptional -
- Simon (10/5): Exceptional -
- Todd (10/5): Exceptional -
- Glady (7/5): Great getaway but overpriced! - This was our second visit to Winkel village - the first being 9 years ago. There was almost no change to the property, based off our poor foggy memory of it. The location is off-beat, which we liked. Thus it was quiet and serene. It was generally what we had expected and overall was still a fun trip. The dated interior of the property could have been updated, the items in the house was complete but not everything was working well, although I'm sure the staff would have helped if we had given them feedback. It is also inaccessible with limited food options nearby. In short the property was a little overpriced, even our driver was surprised by the cost of it based off the looks of the unit. Winkel village will stay as a beautiful memory of our japan holiday.
- Sj (10/5): Great cottage and cool vibe for a group stay - Great cottage to stay at, very large for a family of 5 with plenty of room. Location was amazing, close to the ski fields. The futon beds, A little hard if your not use to that type of bedding.
- Ranzhang (9/5): Superb -
- Madhya (10/5): I will definitely stay again as it was beautiful. Close to shops and ski resorts - Location, overall space, traditional The lower sleep arrangement is too low for adults and the property doesn’t have closet or drawers so we put everything there but every time we were looking for clothes we have to stand in a bending position which was a bit uncomfortable.
- Liuchun (10/5): Exceptional -
- Apple (9/5): Nice little room for family. Private onsen very comfortable. Check in time is very tight though. - Nice little house. Very cosy and very comfortable. There is a full function kitchen, a spacious bathroom with bathtub.
Purposely booked a room with private onsen. Very nice facility within your own room.
A bit further away from the main town but has a huge discount supermarket nearby (Trial) which we can buy food and drinks from. Checking in time was very inconvenient. Check in time is 1500-1800 only. I tried to organise a earlier check in (11am) as we are going down to Otaru. Was only told that we cannot get the keys until 1500-1800 which defeats the purpose of us going to check in at 11am (If I can come between 1500-1800, I would have checked in at that time instead). We had to call the emergency number to get the keys then was told the room is already unlock with our keys in the room. The room is a bit of a weird drive away from the reception and the staff did not tell us where it is located when we checked in.
The room was a bit stuffy. It would be nice and warm in winter but in summer the air ventilation seems to be a bit lacking.
The room is also backed towards a camping area which can be a bit noisy at night.
- Sum (7/5): Good -
- Yeonjung (10/5): Hot spring possible - Hot spring outdoor with family was unforgettable experience It smelled like bbq around the house even though we didn't do the bbq
- Henry (8/5): Very good -
- Premprida (5/5): Passable -
- Tun yip (10/5): - 房間十分大
浴缸十分大
大約坐得下4個人,但我只有兩人
但也用不到,都跑去浸溫泉了
- PEHRSON (10/5): Great location for Exploring local ski Resorts - Amazing stay. Great location and friendly staff. Very clean. Kids had a lot of fun running around and playing in the cabin.
- Jacob (10/5): A cozy little stay away from it all - It was nice to have a night where we could cook dinner together and have a bit of a "home away from home" experience. The outdoor bath was beautiful and we particularly enjoyed the fact that you could open a window to feel the winter wind directly.
- En (1/5): Bad - we booked with winkel village and there was a snow storm warning while we were at sapporo followed by cancelled trains and our train to otaru was delayed since morning and kept cancelling, we were in constant communication with the train conductors and even they advised that the trains wont be able to run and infact wpuld be unwise to head out in the snow storm incase we get trapped. with this we started to contact them early in hope to have some understanding and flexibility due to the extreme weather, espeacilaly since we then have to take a bus to this lodge , and they do not provide any amenities (towel etc) and is not near any convenient stores it seems only wise that its not where we can be snowed in.
their response were “ we wont be able the trains are delayed not cancelled so get here before the weather gets too bad to travel, if you dont know how to work the trains ask the conductors”
while we understand businesses need to still run but we felt this was a reasonable circumstance to work with rather than just asking us to “travel over there before the weather gets too bad” and offered no other alternatives especially where we have no control over the transportations or the weather.
we spent two extremely stressful days trying to work with the hotel staff the cancel the booking but they were so unaccomadating and frankly unkind.
- Wan (9/5): Superb -
- Ma (8/5): Very good -
- Wai (7/5): convenient and comfortable - the cottage was cosy, and it’s close to ski resort the living room is very small, bot enough lighting, a bit dark
the hot water supply in the bathroom is not stable, constantly hot and cold
- yasuyo (8/5): - 清潔でとても良い施設でした。
ただ、冬の露天風呂、お湯がぬるめだと思いました。
内風呂のお湯もなかなか、熱いお湯がでないので、寒かったです。
- TAKESHI (10/5): とても素晴らしい体験でした - 建物自体は新しいわけではないが、掃除と管理が行き届いているため、とても快適な滞在でした。
このような状況でしたので、家族以外との接触もほとんどないアクティビティを…と考えて泊まりましたが、予想以上に楽しい思い出ができました。
予約の時から受付〜出発まで、「密」にならない状況を考えられており、安心しました。
近くに大きな公園があり、子どもたちも伸び伸びと遊べたことに加え、必要十分に用意してくださったBBQセットはコスパに優れていると感じました。
また平常に戻っても、泊まりたいと思います
- Louie (10/5): - 部屋の広さ、清潔さ、スタッフの方々の応対もとても心地良かった。また、周辺の温泉と提携していたり、ツアーもあったり、滞在を充実させられる工夫が随所に見られた。
- Carina (10/5): - We like the rustic place and spa within the unit. And also the surrounding of nature
- Ka wai (4/5): - 櫃面服務員很好
但是真的要住四個人實在太不細
- Jan (8/5): Nice cottage with atmosphere. - The courage was really nice and we'll equipped. It was traditional Japanese style of bedding and dining seeing. Sleeping was not a problem although you have to move the table and setup two mattresses in the living room every night. For westerners the lack of proper chairs may be a problem. It's fun for one night as a novelty and to experience the local culture but after that is just not comfortable.
If you're planning to go skiing at Kiroro, take note that the direct road is closed for the winter. You have to take a detour through Yoichi which makes it a 1h20min trip.
- Verified traveler (10/5): A private cottage in a winter Wonderland - We had a private onsen outside and our own beer keg in our room. It was perfect.
- masanori (8/5): 素泊まりコテージ、異次元で楽しかったです - 素泊まりコテージでした。急に思いついて、宿泊予定の直前に朝里川温泉を検索したら最初に出て来たのがここで、何も考えずに予約しました。数人でバーベキューするのも良し、まったり二人で過ごすのもありかも。泊まった部屋には温泉風呂はなく、近所に朝里クラッセホテル、武蔵亭があり、入浴、食事は必要ならこれらをご利用下さいとの立場です。近所にスーパー、コンビニがありますし、通常のホテル宿泊と較べると不思議な異次元体験できると思います。連れは大喜びでした。
- vv (6/5): Room is not the same as shown in photo - We book a bungalow for 4 person. The photo showed from the app was a double storey bungalow which has living area at the ground floor while the sleeping area is at the upper floor. When we enter the room we were totally shock. It’s only a room connected with the dining area n tv n 4 mattress put together on the floor n it cost us more than sgd500! The room is full of bbq smell. The only good thing about this place is the friendly staff. That’s it.
- Wai Tat (10/5): 質素不錯的私人露天溫泉酒店 - 這次是自駕遊的關係,想與太太能夠獨自浸溫泉,所以選擇了這間酒店,入住感覺不錯
首先,房間非常大間,而且有自己半露天的私人溫泉,亦可以BBQ,門外便是停車地點,相當不錯,外出到小樽其他地方也不會太遠,約10-15分鐘路程便可以
如果非自駕遊便要考慮一下交通問題
- Chui Ying (8/5): - 露天風呂有點舊,建議裝修,空調不足,應更換了,其他設備不錯。
- 粒 (4/5): - 雖然有到車站接駁的服務
但是飯店人員一直希望我們隔天一早自行搭公車去小樽
隔天早上老公還是希望能夠去JR站
但是飯店表示昨晚沒有預定
所以已經不行了
也體諒飯店人力的問題
但是覺得這家飯店
比較適合自己駕車的人去
而且要準備食物可以烹煮
因為住宿費用不便宜
但是並沒有附晚餐跟早餐
- Verified traveler (10/5): - 楽しく過ごせました。
- lily (10/5): 整潔舒適 - 整潔舒適,獨立小屋,適合普通家庭以致大班朋友,有私人半露天溫泉,門前可泊車,有簡單煮食用具,附近是滑雪場附近,10分方便
- JeongSoon (8/5): - 겨울에 온천이라 하기엔 추웠음
외진 곳이라 가족끼리만 보내기엔 추천함
노천탕이 생각보다 작음
- Verified traveler (10/5): 交通,服務,設施,環境,食物,一切安排周到!電郵/電話溝通也可支持英語!員工服務用心! - 交通,服務,設施,環境,食物,一切安排周到!電郵/電話溝通也可支持英語!員工服務用心!鄰近也有溫泉酒店和滑雪場,能滿足不同需要,物超所值!來回JR有專車接送,記得要提前預定。
- Verified traveler (10/5): - 酒店有專車接送, 服務員態度很友善, 房間亦很舒適, 感覺很不錯, 只是用膳食要到對面馬路酒店, 但尚算方便
