A space of hospitality and relaxation enveloped in a design brimming with the exotic charm characteristic of Hakodate.

"Hotel Banso" harmonizes foreign cultures with the warmth of Japanese tradition, offering a modern interpretation.
Hakodate, which opened as one of Japan’s leading trade ports in the late Edo period and was quick to embrace foreign cultures,
features a distinctive exterior that blends modern and retro styles, making it a real eye-catcher.
The hotel’s symbol, the over 5-meter-tall fireplace in the lobby, is based on the concept of the “Civilization and Enlightenment Picture Scroll.”
It creates a unique atmosphere where exotic charm blends with the romance of the northern lands.

Features of Yunokawa Onsen

Boasting a history of over 350 years, "Yunokawa Onsen" is known for its colorless, transparent, and smooth-feeling waters. Rich in sodium chloride and calcium chloride springs—which are renowned for their therapeutic benefits—the water is said to have excellent heat retention properties, keeping you warm for longer.
Since the source water is quite hot at approximately 65°C, we adjust it to a comfortable temperature before supplying it, allowing you to enjoy the natural hot spring water* in its purest form.
*Water is added, heated, and recirculated (the Silky Bath is not a hot spring).

Yukura Lounge

After soothing your fatigue in the hot springs, please relax in the Yukura Lounge, where the scent of wood drifts through the lush green tatami mats.
This is the perfect place to meet up after your bath or to unwind and relax your body after the heat of the bath. We also offer cold drinks and ice cream, so please cool down and refresh yourself.

Relaxation

After gently warming your body in the hot spring, treat yourself to a relaxation or beauty treatment. In addition to relaxation therapies that soothe you to your core—such as foot reflexology, head care, and full-body treatments—we also offer a beauty menu featuring facials and body treatments.

Dinner Menu

Dining Venue: "Kuramatsuri"

Our concept is Hakodate × Warehouse × Festival. Please relax and enjoy your meal in this lively venue.

Introducing Our Executive Chef: Yoshihiro Kitada

Surrounded by the sea on three sides, Hakodate is blessed with an abundance of seafood thanks to the warm currents of the Sea of Japan and the cold currents of the Pacific Ocean flowing into its waters. The region also boasts a wealth of agricultural products and dairy goods cultivated on Hokkaido’s fertile land.
We want you to experience the flavors of Hakodate and Hokkaido, so we have prepared a buffet featuring carefully selected ingredients.
While the taste of the food is a given, we also want you to enjoy the dining atmosphere. We prepare dishes such as sushi and teppanyaki right in front of you, so you can enjoy the visual experience first, followed by the taste of freshly prepared dishes.
Our entire staff is dedicated to doing our utmost to ensure your precious time with us is truly memorable.
We invite you to enjoy the unique dining experience that only Hakodate Yunokawa Hotel Banso can offer.
