Overview

Sasai Hotel invites you to experience the warmth of Tokachigawa Onsen in Hokkaido. The natural moor hot springs here are known for their gentle, plant-based waters, often called “Bijin-no-Yu” or “Beauty Baths” for their skin-smoothing qualities. With panoramic views, hearty meals, and a peaceful setting, you’ll find comfort in every moment.

This ryokan blends traditional hospitality with a wide range of room styles and generous buffets that celebrate the seasonal bounty of Hokkaido. Step away from the noise of everyday life and take time to unwind at this quiet hot spring inn.

Every room includes air conditioning, heating, a refrigerator, TV, yukata, and a full set of amenities. All rooms are non-smoking, and Wi-Fi is available throughout the building. Whether you’re here alone, as a couple, or with family, the hotel offers the right space for you to stretch out and relax.

Dining

You can enjoy the flavors of Hokkaido at Sasai Hotel’s “Northern Buffet,” which features Japanese, Western, and Chinese dishes. The buffet changes with the seasons and highlights local ingredients.

Watch chefs prepare hot-off-the-grill beef steaks and crispy tempura right in front of you at the open kitchen. This live cooking experience makes every meal more exciting.

Special meals are also available for anniversaries and celebrations. Depending on your plan, you might enjoy beautifully arranged seasonal course meals or large platters made for groups. Private dining rooms and banquet halls are available for special events.

In the morning, you’ll find a breakfast buffet with over 30 dishes, including fresh vegetables, regional specialties, and the hotel’s original French toast.
