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.

Total „hygge“ in the mountains.

Our stay in the Kumoi has been nothing but great. Cozy rooms, beautiful lobby, clean onsen and lovely staff. We had both, breakfast and dinner, which always were delicious and prepared with care. We were told that there was wifi in the lobby only, but we had no problem connecting on the second floor. Would recommend!

Great hotel, but not so tourist friendly town

Our stay at kumoi was fantastic, the staff are so friendly and helpful, the room was very clean and the Japanese style bed was great. They even sold us discounted cable car tickets for the mountain, which is only about 100m away..Unfortunately we were very disappointed with the local town though. In the whole town there was only 2 open restaurants and 1 cafe that only opened at 12. It was not very good for western travelers wanting a nice dinner or early breakfast. It looks like a ghost town in summer.

We were attracted to the hotel because of its modern look. However, the entire stay was a disappointing experience. The onsen was nice and clean, but the water temperature was nothing close to what onsen temperature should be. A dip in the bath tub could be hotter than their onsen. A staff came by to look into the water temperature, but unfortunately, not able to fix the issue in time (while we were there). We ordered the dinner set too along with our stay, and unfortunately the dinner was pretty bad too. Nothing of those typical Japanese ryokans dinner that you'll typically expect. To make matters worse, throughout our dinner, there was a group of really loud and rowdy guests, talking loudly at the lounge area, which was just beside the dining hall. And when we tried to feedback that to the staff, they just gave a "nothing I can do about that" expression, not even an apology. Overall, a very disappointing stay, and boy were we glad we only stayed one night.

昔ながらの旅館をキレイに改装してあってオシャレだった。 朝晩の料理も美味しくいただきました。 Wi-Fiが部屋で繋がらないけど、層雲峡自体が大雪の麓だし、そういう環境なのかなーと、またそれもいいかなと思えました。 1つだけ残念だったのは、中国人観光客のお風呂場の使い方が雑で、脱衣所の床と洗面台がどう使ったらそうなるの?って言うほどベチャベチャになっており、まめな掃除がされてないのが辛かったです。
