About
Hanamomiji
Hanamomiji sits in the Jozankei onsen area of Sapporo, a valley known for its hot springs and river views. The hotel blends traditional Japanese design — tatami rooms, kaiseki meals, and communal baths — with the conveniences of a modern city hotel: 24-hour reception, a restaurant, and a free shuttle service.

The outdoor onsen on the first floor was the best part — very relaxing after a day of exploring. Dinner was a fantastic kaiseki meal. The location also offered lovely river views from the nearby onsen.”
