Toya Kohen Tei sits right on the shores of Lake Toya and delivers gorgeous lakefront views, an insanely good outdoor onsen (the rotenburo here is a standout), and front-row seats to Lake Toya’s seasonal fireworks. Rooms look out over the water with views stretching toward Mount Yotei, often called Hokkaido’s Mount Fuji, and meals are taken care of with generous buffet-style dinner and breakfast included. The hotel is conveniently located near boat ride vendors, has a convenience store within walking distance, and offers extras like karaoke and free on-site parking. It’s a 10-minute drive to the Usuzan Ropeway, 15 minutes to Mount Showa Shinzan, and about 25 minutes by bus from JR Toya Station, with a once-daily paid shuttle to and from Sapporo.
