Lovely art deco style building, extremely helpful staff, free drinks from 5 till 6:30, amazing breakfast and clean comfy rooms made for an amazing stay.
The room was great. The staff was supurb. And Jintaro, at the hotel bar, was the best bartender/cocktail artist I've ever had the pleasure of being served by.
This is a really nice place. The building itself is architecturally wonderful.n As soon as you walk in there a calm vibe and the staff are really helpful and so nice. And that calmness permeates into their rooms. The room was clean, nice bed and the shower tub was a decent size. I highly recommend this place if you're in Otaru.
Rooms are clean and very comfortable. Check-in was seamless

Average room size and facilities with a few dining options in hotel, but very close to great shopping district. Overall worth the budget for staying in a leisure trip. Friendly staff and surprisingly good high tea style breakfast!
It was great experience with Unwind. I like the design of the hotel. Room is clean and well designed whereby I found everything I need. The hotel also offers free wine tasting everyday so please don't miss it if staying with the hotel.
5/5. Super nice staff! Very friendly and serviceminded. Free wine tasting in the afternoon. A big selection of signature coctails. Breakfast was luxurious. The restaurant had great food at a reasonable price. The rooms was cosy.
The hotel building is historic and renovated with care.
Nice breakfast high tea style. Staff were very helpful. Stayed in the loft room for a family of 5. The loft was half height which was fun for the kids. Overall the room space was a bit tight but sufficient. Washing machine and dryers were pay per use.
The hotel is situated in a very convenient location, just a few minutes walk from the canal and the famous shopping street. Though it’s small, it’s very cozy and clean. I definitely will stay here again if I go to Otaru in the future.
