THE LAKE VIEW TOYA Nonokaze Resort (乃の風リゾート ) | Hot Spring Hotel | Lake Toya

We stayed at "THE LAKE VIEW TOYA Nonokaze Resort (乃の風リゾート )" the other day.

This is a new hotel, and my guests and I were so excited!!

This is my room↓ I love it!

Look at Lake Toya (洞爺湖) from my room!! How beautiful it is!!!

Before eating dinner, I enjoyed hot spring first.
This is "Showanoyu (ザ・銭湯 昭和乃湯)", one of the hot spring areas in this hotel↓

Wow! Wow! Wow!
THIS is the public bath!!! Japanese public bath areas usually has a Mt. Fuji painting like this↓

The water contains a lot of minerals, making my skin more beautiful!!

 After taking hot spring, I relaxed at the massage chair for a while......

Let's go to the buffet restaurant for dinner!

The area has Japanese,

Western, and

Chinese food corners.

The sushi is very fresh!

The steak is being grilled in front of the guests.

I love local jumbo shrimps (牡丹海老)!!!

Clams (はまぐり) in the spaghetti  are also caught off this area!!

They serve a lot of kinds of desserts, and

fruits.......

I really enjoyed the buffet♪

Of course, I chose all of the desserts! Hahaha!

Next morning, I got up early and enjoyed another indoor hot spring area named "EZO FUJI".
The location is perfect!! Everybody in my tour was enjoying the hot spring and the lake at the same time. Time passes slowly here.

The open air hot spring here is my favorite.
Look at the pic↓
We felt as if the hot spring is connected with the lake!!!

We returned to the buffet restaurant again for breakfast!

I really recommend this onigiri or rice ball. She makes each onigiri after she gets an order.

Everything including this mozzarella cheese is a local product!

Usually I don't eat ramen for breakfast, but I enjoyed it  here!

How delicious the fresh apple juice here! Apples are famous local products in this area! Actually I drank 5 glasses of apple juice this time!!!

How healthy it is!

Of course I enjoyed every kind of desserts and

fruits!

As the kind is different from the one for dinner, I chose everything!!!

I really want to come back to this hotel, if it's possible, with my guests of this tour. Actually I really miss them......

Sounkaku Grand Hotel (層雲閣グランドホテル)①| Meals | Daisetsuzan National Park

I'm now in the Daisetsuzan National Park (大雪山国立公園).

Today's hotel is "Sounkaku Grand Hotel (層雲閣グランドホテル)"↓

Let's take it easy!!!

This is my room. Nod bad!!

Just for reference, this is a Japanese tatami room. Which do you prefer, a Japanese or a Western room?

Look at the Ishikari River (石狩川) seen from my room! How soothing it is!!

In the winter time, it is covered with snow↓
The area has different attraction in each season.

First of all, we went to the buffet venue.

My guests were so excited to see the crab mountain! Hahaha!

I really love Hokkai Shrimps (北海シマエビ), local shrimps available only in Hokkaido!

How about the tempra and steak corner? Yummy x 2!!

This sashimi corner looks good, but personally I recommend......

this sushi corner (勝手寿司).

Look at the sushi machine! Amazing isn't it?  Although this sushi doesn't taste as great as ones professional chefs make, as it is fun, I made a lot of sushi by myself! Hahaha!

Don't forget ramen (ラーメン) at the end!

The frozen noodles are boiled..........

like this↓

This is my first round!

I chose a lot of crabs and Hokkai shrimps!

Ramen looks wonderful, doen't it? As I like meat, I put three pieces of tender pork on ramen! Hahaha!

About desserts, I enjoyed a lot of fruits and ..................

a new type of shaved ice (新感覚アイス)↓

"Charmmy Snow Ice (チャーミースノーアイス)" tastes condensed milk, and is shaved softly like this.

This home-made strawberry source really goes well with the dessert!

See?! It tastes wonderful!

After enjoying dinner, we enjoyed hot spring.
