Our Favorite Hotel
We cannot recommend La Vista Daisetsuzan enough. We skied Asahi-dake two days and staying here made skiing simple. The front desk was incredibly helpful and kind. The food was delicious, and the onsen was the perfect way to end each day. The hotel is older but updated in all the necessary ways. It has an ageless charm. The room was super comfortable. We absolutely loved every part of our stay. Quick tip: make sure to make your dinner and breakfast reservations before arrival. They send an email a couple of weeks before you arrive. As an English speaker, we missed it as it was in Japanese.

Nice property, rooms were a little dated still clean and nice, rooms were good sized. Public and private hot springs baths were awesome. One thing to be aware of is to be sure to reserve dinner because there is literally no where else on the mountain to eat, the hotels restaurants there only serve meals to their own guests, and if you can’t wait until dinner time to get a meal.

The place is very scenic. The serve rendered was excellent. The only thing I feel can be improved is their food standard. It’s not tasteless but it can be better. The onsen/spa is amazing

The property is a bit old, and a little smelly. The body lotion, which I believe is one of the common amenities provided by 4 star hotels, was not provided. The onsen was excellent, and we enjoyed the breakfast buffet a lot.

Great dinner, excellent breakfast, nice room though a bit dated. Friendly helpful service and good location. Lovely little onsen with private and public options. I would stay here again if I came back.

It looks like a winter wonderland, but we went in the summer. It was a bit desolate, with nothing around. The outside looked rundown, but the inside was beautiful maintained, cleaned and comfortable. The staff was nice, nothing to brag about. We were especially surprised that there was nothing to eat around, and the hotel charged $20 for breakfast, and $80 for dinner. And the staff was somewhat unhelpful in finding alternatives. Makes sense from a business perspective, but not so much from a customer service perspective. The location being so close to the Asahidake ropeway station (within 10 minutes walk) was the best part!

Perfect hotel for a relaxing stay
The staff upon greeting were excellent and really made us feel welcome. The facilities were fantastic and generally speaking there is always one private bath open. The private baths are great for those that want to enjoy the facilities, but don't feel comfortable in the public baths. My very very slight issue with the staff was that one of the members of staff was not so helpful when I had questions about purchasing an item from the store. There was no stock and when I asked about the possibility of paying and having it delivered, the staff member gave me a variety of answers. I felt the staff member just didn't want to hassle of having to keep an item and set up a delivery.

GREAT hotel next to the Asahidake Ropeway
Fantastic and generous hotel with beautiful onsen, helpful staff, and nice rooms. Little touches like ice pops outside of the onsen, free private onsen, free coffee in the rooms, and many other perks were really wonderful to have, especially as a treat after hiking in the Daisetsuzan NP. The hotel is within walking distance of the Asahidake Ropeway and 2 minutes walking away from the bus stop that takes you to/from the Asahikawa Airport and Asahikawa Train station. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to treat themselves after visiting Daisetsuzan NP.

The hotel was beautiful and service impeccable. Couldn't have asked for a better stay. Our only complaint perhaps is that the free ice popsicles outside public baths were a little on the too-sweet side (just kidding, THEY'RE FREE ICE POPSICLES! YOU CAN'T FAULT THAT). Well done La Vista!

Request for a non-smoking room, but the moment we step in, the smell of the cigarette was unbearable. We were told they did not separate smoking or non-smoking room. Family with little kids please beware of this point. Dinner was not impressive.

Great hotel but you MUST get the meal
We didn't get the "board" or meal included, and we came to learn that there is literally NO place to eat up there for dinner unless you book the meal with your room. We even tried to get food from the hotel store and they wouldn't let us cook the ramen in our rooms. Ultimately a wonderful location, hotel, great onsen, and skiing.

Great Hotel with ambience, comfort and luxurious
We thought we were there to see autum leaves but we miss calculated and thus weren't prepared for the heavy snow and as it was beginning of the snowing season so no activities... But the hotel surprised us with good hot bath, good food, good ambience. We would sit by the fireplace to watch the snow for hours is like watching national geographic live. The hotel even provided winter jackets and snow shoes so that we could just walk outside to feel the cold..

Delightful mountain hotel - good value for money
Lovely cosy hotel which was delightful for a getaway in the mountains. The teppanyaki dinner was delicious, breakfast very good and the onsen also very good. All in all, I thought it was terrific value with the spa facilities, the meal, and the quality of the room. We had paid more at other luxurious places elsewhere in Hokkaido, but actually felt that the character of this one and the nice private dinner (as opposed to buffet styles elsewhere) made it perhaps better. Very well placed for Asahidake ropeway - a five minute walk away. We walked up and had lovely views. There was a free hotel shuttle service from Asikawa train station (and public buses as well) so accessible even without a car.

Not valable in this price level
Just let us know their services are out of order in that moment. Simple France dinner. But,good buffet breakfast. Bad accounting system, they asked us for the payment even we showed our receipt from Hotels.com

The hotel was great for onsen or to climb up Mt Asashidate. While the hotel room does not have Aircon, they provided fans. Anyway the hotel is 800m above sea level, it's cooling at night. We took the half board package which came with an amazing teppanyaki dinner. The breakfast selection was spoilt for choices as they offered selection from the locate produce. There are option for public and private hot spring. Will definitely come back again for a longer relaxing stay.
Good selection of whisky

Great Stay
My family and I enjoyed our stay very much. Room was excellent. The grounded coffee in the room was a nice touch. Best of all was the quality and the never-ending supply of food. There was free iced coffee, hot tea and lovely wafer biscuits in the lobby in the afternoon, and free ice cream outside the public onsen throughout the day. Dinner was served at 5.30pm but we didn't mind as we had missed lunch. We took the French dinner and it was enjoyable. They also served ramen for supper from 11pm - 11.30pm. What we loved most was their breakfast. There was a spread of Japanese and western breakfast food. Forget the western and just go for the Japanese! If they had WIFI in the room, it would have been perfect!

Good hotel with great view
The bus stop is right next to the hotel entrance. The ropeway to Mount Asahidake is a 10 minute walk. The room was very spacious and comfortable, but although it was a non-smoker room it still smelled like tobaco. All staff was friendly. Although the check in is only at 3pm, they'll keep the luggage making it possible to go enjoy the montain. When we got back for check in, the luggage was in our room already.
