Jozankei Nukumori-no-Yado FURUKAWA (Jozankei Onsen)

This hot spring hotel is located in Jozankei Onsen, a hot spring resort about an hour's drive from central Sapporo. The nostalgic atmosphere of the folk art-style interior, including a sunken hearth, will make you feel relaxed and relaxed.

"The features of Nukumori-no-Inn FURUKAWA "are "abundant hospitality "and "meals that make the most of seasonal delicacies ". "For the abundant hospitality ", there are several lounges where you can enjoy drinks, soft drinks, snacks and sweets from check-in to check-out.

After check-in, you can enjoy hand-picked mugwort tea, apple wine, and Japanese sweets at the lounge right next to the check-in counter. In the evening, you can also enjoy amazake (sweet sake) from Hokkaido's proud sake brewery "Kunimare Shuzo ".

And in the evening, you can enjoy a footbath and sweets such as hot wine and baked apples at the lounge in the forest, located in a remote part of the inn. You can spend a quiet night in Jozankei, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, as you wish. If the weather is fine, you can see a star-filled sky and enjoy a truly extraordinary space.

Also, regarding "Seasonal Meals ", you can have a Japanese kaiseki meal for dinner, which changes about every two months, using seasonal ingredients. For example, in late September, when I stayed at the hotel, walnuts, mukago, salmon, pumpkin, mushrooms, and other ingredients that are in season in autumn were used in abundance. Each dish is not only delicious, but also creative in its detailed decoration and coloring, making it a feast for the eyes as well as the palate.

All rooms are either Japanese-style or Western-style, and the sunken hearth, tatami mats, and beams create a nostalgic atmosphere of old-fashioned Japanese architecture. This hot spring hotel is popular for family celebrations such as kanreki (60th birthday) and kiju (77th birthday).

Jozankei Tsuruga Resort Spa Mori no Motto (Jozankei Onsen)




This is a hot spring hotel of the "Tsuruga Group ", which operates high-quality hot spring hotels and buffet restaurants throughout Hokkaido. The forest surrounding the hotel can be seen from the large windows, and the interior of the hotel is forest-inspired, creating an open space where one can feel the forest as the hotel's name implies.

"Morinomofotte "features "an exquisite buffet using Hokkaido ingredients "and "hospitality with a sense of the forest ". ""The buffet "is a little bit more luxurious than the typical hot spring hotel buffet ", with dishes using high quality ingredients that are different from the typical hot spring hotel buffet, as well as elaborate dishes that are surprisingly different from the typical buffet "and the combination of this and that⁉ ". It is one of the most delicious and fulfilling buffets I have ever visited. There is a wide range of dishes from appetizers, main dishes, soups, nabe dishes, teppan-yaki, etc., and you will never be able to find them at other hotel buffets, so no matter how many stomachs you have, it will never be enough..!




The sweets corner of this buffet offers a wide variety of sweets, almost like a buffet specializing in sweets. The buffet includes cakes and cream puffs from "Patissier Lab ", a cake shop located inside the hotel.




Also, about "Forest hospitality ", the lounge has a soft, grassy green carpet, where you can take off your shoes and relax as if you were at home. Next to it is a library space with a wide range of books, where you can relax and read your favorite books. Other relaxing activities include enjoying roasted marshmallows by the fireplace and harp music played four times a day.

"Morino Motto "is of course a great place to stay overnight and relax, but you can also spend a luxurious time there on a day trip.
