It was our second time to stay here. The location is right across from the JR station. They have amazing buffet breakfast. They also offer very good amenities and drink station. We enjoyed our stay.
Very pleasantly surprised with Hotel Amanek, do not think you can get a better location in Asahikawa (spitting distance from station, as well as from restaurants/shops).
Front desk staff spoke good English, though checkin was actually automated via kiosk. Generally friendly service and as others have noted free coffee/soft drink in lobby afternoons.
Did not get to check out onsite onsen though seemed a cool feature. Room was clean.
Overall would not hesitate to stay in again, we agreed one of the better hotels we had stayed in on the trip (although possibly as we got a good trip.com deal!)
We stayed here for a night, it’s near to the Aeon Mall and JR Station. There is a lot public parkings surrounded to the hotel. Room size is very small, room cleanliness is acceptable.
Public bath is available but crowded all the time. Complimentary drinks available in the lobby but always noisy and chaotic like public markets.
The con was the front desks were not friendly and he get mad easily when a lot customers queued up for check in. There is only 2 lifts for 14 floors, everyday full of tourists bus came and very long waiting time for the lift.
Overall, we wouldn't come back here again 😔
