Guest Reviews
- pokupoku (8/5): - HOTEL Staff are very kind .They are corresponded to my request kindly.
- Oded (8/5): Nice hotel - Very good located but the bed was really really really hard to sleep on! The breakfast buffet was amazing
- Verified traveler (8/5): ホテルのスタッフの笑顔がいい。 - 建物、部屋は古かったけど、従業員の皆様が大変フレンドリーであり、感激しました。
- Yukie (10/5): 朝食が大満足 - 接客態度及び清潔感が良かった。特にレストランのスタッフの勤務態度が好感持てた。
- 旅行觀光者 (8/5): 交通方便，房間闊大舒適的酒店 - 近火車站，觀光巴士站，碼子，交通方便。酒店雖然有點舊，但設施良好。房間闊大舒適。美中不足的是空調只能應付寒冷的天氣，夏天房間很熱，酒店職員不懂外語，幾乎無法溝通。幾經辛苦才明白客人的要求。最後他給我們關掉空調，打開窗子，解決了問題。
- 314graemer (6/5): Disappointingly unexpected - Knowing nothing about Wakkanai apart from its proximity to the most northerly place in Japan, I booked this because of the added proximity to the Ferry Terminal and the train station. The former is about 10 minutes and the latter is about 1 minute. However, because of the hour of arrival (1915) from Rishiri Island off the Ferry, I was the only checkin at that time. All was good, the room was ready, maps provided. However, I was on 6th floor. This had an overwhelming, intrusive odour of cigarette smoke. So did, 5, 4, 3 in fact all floors stank of cigarette smoke. I was too tired to enter into any discussion about changing rooms. The restaurant, however, is a pleasant surprise. I had the local fish fish at 1000 yen and a Sapporo beer (would not have anything else in Hokkaido) and the total came to 1755 yen. A little pricing but that's what you get. The room - was clean, tidy, had everything in it that I needed for the one night I was there. The bed was hard, the pillows matched the degree of hardness. There is a kettle for tea making, hair drier, western sized towels and an amenities kit in the room. The hotel is literally next door to the information centre which doubles as the bus station and train station. Wakkanai is not a big place but had enough to keep me occupied for the 15 or so hours I was there.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Recommended Hotel in Wakkanai - The room was neat and comfortable, staff were helpful—although not all of them are fluent in English, they were willing to help and answer the questions with my journey. The hotel is easy to access—around 5 minutes walk from JR Wakkanai Station, or if you taking the Soya Bus from Wakkanai Airport, this is a half-hour trip and the stop is diagonally opposite the hotel. There are supermarket and convenience store nearby, and restaurants as well (pay attention to the opening hours, most of them close quite early). Overall, it is a nice experience, and I definitely would stay in this hotel next time.
- HIROYUKI (10/5): - Our beds were really hard, but the staff allowed us to have futons on the mattress. Otherwise, we enjoyed everything else about our stay. Within walking distance to Wakkanai Station, local bus, and ferry, it was easy to visit Wakkanai Lighthouse (take local bus to Noshappu), and take ferry for day trip to Rushiri Island.
- chibajay (2/5): First time I ever checked out as I was checking in - I had been traveling the circumference of Hokkaido and was exhausted from the long drive. As I was checking into the Wakkanai Sun Hotel it became very apparent due to the combative nature of the front desk manager and the owner GM that they basically don't want foreign visitors. Stay away from this place at all costs. They were extremely rude and I actually caught them in a lie. Place is extremely run down, smelly and dirty. It was the last place open for reservations on the booking website. I should have slept in the car. If you aren't Japanese and a holder of a Japanese passport, they don't want your business. STAY AWAY from the Wakkanai Sun Hotel.
- Verified traveler (2/5): Rudest check in I ever experienced - It was the last hotel available on hotels.com in this city. Although the reviews were generally below average or poor I needed a hotel as I was on a long trip in Hokkaido. I have stayed in hotels in about 15 different countries and have never been treated so badly upon check in as this hotel. I absolutely would never stay here nor set foot in this place again. Extremely rude to international visitors, at least me. I asked to see the General Manager and was told he wasn't there. When I asked for a refund on the night he suddenly appeared. Caught red handed in a lie as well. Do yourself and favour. STAY AWAY FROM the Wakkanai Sun hotel.
- Verified traveler (4/5): 一般的日本舊式酒店 - 職員態度非常親切, 但酒店比較舊, 房間的設施也是, 廁所內清洗屁股的不能用, 不會推荐朋友入住...
- Sangwon (6/5): 그냥 그런 호텔 - 그냥 그래요. 낡은 호텔. 많은 기대를 하지 않고 가야 함.
- Tim (6/5): Close to Station and Port - Nice property near train station and port. Not many affordable food options nearby, but there are pachinko parlors if that's for you. The train station has some options for food and a movie house.
- Verified traveler (6/5): 位置方便 - 很近稚內駅,格離已是便利店,所以位置是很方便的. 但酒店比較舊,我進入房間後覺得自己去了大陸的酒店入住呢~
- Verified traveler (8/5): Near rail station - Staff is readily available even I reached Wakkanai at 11pm. The hotel is just a few steps from the rail station and bus station.
- KIKI (6/5): 역에서 매우 가까운 호텔 - 생긴지 오래되어 욕실이나 시설물들이 많이 낡아 있으나 이용하는데 불편할 정도는 아님. 흡연실이라지만 객실은 물론 복도에서 부터 냄새가 심하게 나는편. 역에서 가까운 점이 강점
- ChihDou (8/5): - 距離市場近，可買到廉價的生熟食，便宜新鮮海膽必買。
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 閑静でコンビニも近く、快適だった。 築年数が古い割には清潔で、利便性も 良く、駐車場も無料だった。 再度、稚内を訪れる際には また利用したい。
- 605tanc (8/5): Nice tourist class hotel in wakkanai - Wakkanai sun hotel is a local 3 star hotel. The hotel was well lactate do at the city centre. 5 minutes walk to the train station , there are Super market and shop alone the street. Room is clean but a bit old. The hotel lobby a bit messy due to shop selling local product at lobby. Hotel staff do not speak english
- Verified traveler (6/5): 駅に近い - 稚内駅のすぐそばなので、移動・観光にはとても便利ですし、ホテル内にレストランがあります。でも、値段の割には古くて、清潔な感じはなかったような気がします。
- Verified traveler (4/5): - 古いホテルという印象です。スタッフの感じはいいし、清潔ですが、部屋はお湯がいきなり出なくなったり、などいろいろと不便でした。寝巻きとして 浴衣がおいてあるというのも、あまり好きではありません。朝食にはこれといった特徴はなく、おきまりのできあいのおかずばかりといった感じです。部屋にコーヒーメーカーがあるのは、 いいと思いました。
- hiroo (2/5): - 駐車じょも、聞いたのに、止めずらいし、畳の、ヘア、最悪。２度と行かないし！皆に言います。サービスも最悪。
- yamachan (8/5): 何よりも駅からのアクセスがよい - 稚内駅からすぐのところにあり、どこに出かけるにしてもアクセスがよい。宿泊した部屋は北向きだが、眼前に北防波堤ドームや稚内港、遠くに宗谷岬を見渡せる位置にあり、好天に恵まれた２日間の滞在は快適だった。
- 762ad_lem (4/5): Expensive for the service offered - Pretty expensive for an old hotel. Room reeked of cigarette. I would not recommend, as this kind of service should be twice a cheap. (Around 10 000 yens when we went there.) At least it's close to the train station...
- cp9a (8/5): Faded but enough for transit - I spent just one night for transit. It's location is the closest to the newly renovated Wakkanai JR station as well as Seico-mart convenience store. Thehoel buildind is little bit faded but it is well maintained. My room was equipped electric massage chair which eases my back and shoulder for free. The only negative factor for me was they have no 'Non-smoking' room. I got deodeorant spray to ease bad smell from the hotel staff.
