Authent Hotel Otaru in Otaru

Conveniently located within a 10-minute walk to Otaru Station and the canal. There's also a direct bus to Mount Tengu right outside the hotel. The hotel has a bit of a vintage feel, and the rooms are quite old-fashioned in style. The window view from the top floor restaurant is truly beautiful. The 11th floor offers a Western-style breakfast, while the 3rd floor has Japanese set meals, so you can choose what you prefer. There's also a large public bath on the 3rd floor for soaking.

Lobby and rooms are really spacious and clean. Toiletries were mostly provided, water pressure and heating is good. Hospitality was great as well. Located only less then 10mins away from Otaru Stn and accessible to otaru canal. Convenience store just right outside the hotel.

Authant hotel is a very classic n posh hotel in Otaru. Only 8 mins walk from otaru station. Room is spacious, clean n amenities provided are top class. Also Onsen is really nice. Highly recommended if anyone plan to visit Ptaru and stay for a night or 2

The hotel is a 10min walk from the train station so it was hard to get there in snowy and icy conditions. The room was small and comfortable but clean.

Very close to Otaru Canal and Otaru Station, with plenty of food options nearby. It's also incredibly close to Tenguyama Ropeway Station! Everything was super convenient. The breakfast buffet was excellent too. A fantastic stay overall!

The hotel is a bit old but well-maintained. The Western breakfast was just okay and not really worth the price. The staff, however, were excellent – very friendly and proactive in opening doors and helping with luggage. The back entrance only has stairs, which was a real pain with all the luggage.

Convenient location within walking distance from Otaru Canal.
Clean and well-equipped room with everything needed for a comfortable stay.

Very lovely hotel with extremely helpful front desk staff who spoke good English.

The location is really convenient smack right in between Otaru JR station and Otaru Canal and less than 15 mins walk to Sakaimaichi Shopping Street.

The room is big in Japanese terms. No issue for those travelling with 2 x 30 inch lugguage. We had twin bed room which comes with a large sofa lounge enough for 1 person to sleep.

We had dinner at the 11th Floor Casa Blanca. Wonderful dinner for 3 with wines, whisky and highballs. Exceptional night view of snow capped city buildings. All at an very surprising bill of ¥25,000 for a fine dinning restaurant.

I will not hesitate to recommend this excellent hotel.

Will definitely be back for my next visit to Otaru in Authum.

The stay was great, the staff were friendly and welcoming. Loved the lobby vibes, slightly grand yet cosy. The rooms were well equipped and bed were firm and comfy especially for those with back problems. Breakfast was a gd spread. Also I misplaced my iPad and the team was very helpful in retrieving it for me. Would definitely return when I visit Otaru again.

Great staff and amazing restaurant/bar. Cheong the manager was exceptionally friendly and helpful as were the older cleaning ladies.Breakfast average but with a great view. Husband loved the onsen. The only bad things for me were the fact we had to pay for parking.. not always near the hotel, and the bed for me was very uncomfortable. Otherwise nice food in the restaurant and reasonable restaurants around :)
