Hotel Neu Schloss Otaru, hotel in Otaru

Located within the premises of Niseko-Shakotan-Otaru Kaigan Quasi-National Park, Hotel Neu Schloss Otaru offers rooms with views of the ocean and a private open-air bath.

The breakfast in the morning was excellent! This was one of our favorite meals from our entire trip in Hokkaido. We also did dinner one of the nights and enjoyed it with some lovely local wine. The room had a great view from both the bedroom and the hot tub. We were very grateful for the shuttle to and from the hotel to Otaru Station since you do need some way to get into town. We let the hotel know in advance when we wanted to be picked up/dropped off. The shuttle is clearly labeled with the hotel name, was always a little early, and had our name listed to ensure they picked up all the guests. We were glad to have the convenience of some vending machines with drinks, beer/sake, and snack/ramen. Thanks so much for a wonderful time!

    This was a lovely town to visit!

    This was a lovely town to visit! It's closer to Sapporo than I realized, so the train ride from there was very quick. We went to a few historical sites, the aquarium, shrines, and shopping. There was a lot of great food around the shopping and we picked up things as we went. Our best meal was the ramen and gyoza at Ramen Tokaiya! A small ramen shop with one guy manning the whole place. We made sure to go a little early so there was very little wait.

    I really liked Otaru, even though it is small and doesn’t have too much to see. It’s really just the main shopping strip and the canal. There are a few museums and some spots in the mountains (there seems to be a ropeway that is poorly advertised but would have been perfect) but that’s about it. It’s really quite a charming place. The streetscape and history are both fascinating, and the food great - especially ankake yakisoba and kaisendon. I do think it would be an absolutely perfect place to end a trip and unwind for a few days before returning to reality.

    A lovely old port town with many original buildings being repurposed for tourism - dining and glass making. Compact size makes walking around easy but in winter could be snow bound. Lots of great places to explore old Japanese culture and dining and drinking experiences. Lots of fresh seafood...many diners around the actual fish market shop with all types of Japanese cuisine... tempura...sakitori...sushi..shashimi...hotpot ...ramen etc..and absolutely amazing bakeries / patisseries and local ice cream and dairy products. Even wineries have opened up. And even more if you are a winter sports person with ski resorts on the town outskirts...seaon just closed when we were here. All this a simple train ride from Sapporo Airport -- ok maybe an 2 hour ride...not bad if straight off the plane from Sydney or Seoul or Tokyo into the Sapporo airport.

    After coming from the big city of Sapporo we loved the smaller town of Otaru. Planned on just doing a day trip but changed to stay overnight. Wish we had taken a day off Sapporo and added it to Otaru. No lights on the canal as expected but we still loved Otaru. Easy to walk to everything and a lot to enjoy.

    We went during winter.

    We went during winter. It is a small quiet town and most shops close around 5-6pm. So good to settle dinner early. As a small and quiet town, the place is generally quiet and peaceful after dusk. There is nothing to do after dusk and travelers can take a stroll down the Otaru canal and enjoy the night view.

    Give the canal a pass, especially if you have been to Europe. Very underwhelming. Take the local train one stop to Shioya and hike the Shioya Maru-yama. It is about a 6km round trip hike up a local mountain with great views. Take the same train to Yoichi to tour the Nikka Whiskey Distillery and sample great whiskeys in the restaurant after the tour (book reservation for tour ahead of time and remember everything shuts down around 16:00).

    We are avid travellers and as we live in the tropics, we often travel during winter to experience the snow. It was not our first visit to Otaru and we are experienced driving in snow. As the road to the property is a steep slope, with changes in temperature, the melted snow made the road too slippery to drive up. When I walked up, I slipped and fell and had to slide down to the bottom of the slope. We also saw a taxi alight passengers at the bottom of the slope, without luggage, it is possible to slowly climb.

    The location was excellent! Walking distance to train station and direct connection to two shopping areas. The hotel is not in the middle of Otaru town so don’t expect to walk out the door and have access to the attractions. Nevertheless, it was not an issue to take a short train ride to Otaru station. Hotel is on a grand scale with large rooms and a huge dining area. The staff was very helpful with a few English speakers.

    It was great in terms of location as Otaru Canal is right in-front of you. But you got to work around 15 minutes to the Music Box streets which is still acceptable. Car park there is really good as it’s park under hotel property. They do provide us helpful information of how to take ski bus to Kiroro Peak Club Med too.
