Fodor's Expert Review Takimotokan Hokkaido

55 Noboribetsu Onsen, Noboribetsu, Hokkaido, 059-0595, Japan

Contemplate the Hell Valley while soaking in one of the 35 different baths at Takimotokan Hokkaido. This Japanese-style hotel is often busy with tour groups from Japan and overseas. The main draw is sitting in the sumptuous waters, where swimsuits are allowed in some of the outside baths. There's also a daily shuttle bus from Sapporo. Nonguests can bathe for ¥2,000.

PROS

  • a wide range of onsen
  • views of Hell Valley from the baths
  • recently renovated

CONS

  • tobacco smell in some rooms
  • noisy with groups
  • baths can be busy as they are open to nonguests
