10/10 Exceptional

Stylish and modern place
Sounkyo is a quaint little resort town with not much in the way of facilities, but this hotel helps make up for that. They provided dinner and breakfast so I didn't have to worry about finding a restaurant in the freezing cold. They also have a hot spring, a place to chill and play billiards, and even a movie showing every night in which I regrettably could not partake. I also stayed during Sounkyo's Ice Waterfall Festival, which was marvelous and a bit different from the other winter festivals I saw in Hokkaido. It costs money to enter but if you leave you can re-enter so long as you flash the postcard they give you (that's your ticket). That really helped when I was hurting from the cold and needed to duck back into my hotel to eat and warm up. I can definitely recommend this place in the winter and I'd gladly stay again if I ever visit again in any other season.
