Otaru's Hotel Sonia in Hokkaido

Located directly across from Otaru's famous brick warehouse-lined canal, the Hotel Sonia is a great choice for travelers on a budget. Although it slightly resembles a love hotel on the outside, the inside is uniquely decorated in a 'European' style. Our regular twin room was spacious, comfortable, and quiet. Guests can expect simple accommodations at a good price. For those who drive, there is a parking lot behind their annex, Hotel Sonia II. The website is only in Japanese; however, rooms can be booked in English on a number of travel websites.
