【北海道】登別・第一滝本館に宿泊！5つの源泉＆海鮮ビュッフェを満喫する夫婦旅

Hello, this is the Mary Channel. This time, we’re heading to Hokkaido’s New Chitose Airport. There was a pleasant surprise during the flight. We received the popular snack “Jaga Pokkuru.” This time, we were able to get cheap tickets thanks to a special campaign by AIRDO. The round trip between Haneda and Chitose for two people was ¥26,560. From here, we’re heading toward Noboribetsu by rental car. It’s about a one-hour drive from New Chitose Airport to Noboribetsu Onsen. The rental car we got is a Toyota Roomy. Noboribetsu Onsen is one of Hokkaido’s most famous hot spring areas. With nine different types of hot spring water sources, it’s often called a “department store of hot springs.” Oh, there it is! The iconic red demon statue of Noboribetsu Onsen! The demons are said to be the guardian spirits of Noboribetsu Onsen. We’re now heading to the Noboribetsu Bear Park, which is located near the hotel we’re staying at. A free shuttle bus runs from the hot spring town to the ropeway station. We bought discounted admission tickets with feed included on Agoda. It takes about 7 minutes to reach the top via a dedicated ropeway. Looking back, we saw the snowy townscape of Noboribetsu Onsen spread out behind us. Just then, a duck race was starting. Who knew we could watch a duck race at a bear park? 😆 Maybe because it was close to closing time, we didn’t see the bears begging for food. At the “Human Cage,” a huge brown bear was just on the other side of the glass! You can also try feeding the bears here. It might not come across well in video, but in person, they’re massive! You can open the iron gate to feed them, but they’re so aggressive it’s wild 🤣 In the end, the bear opened the gate and ate the food inside. From the top of the park, we could also see Lake Kuttara. After leaving the Bear Park, we head to our accommodation for the night. This time, we’re staying at Dai-ichi Takimotokan. It’s about a 3-minute drive from the Bear Park. Dai-ichi Takimotokan is a long-established hot spring inn founded in 1858 by Kinzo Takimoto. It all began when he visited Noboribetsu’s hot springs to treat his wife’s skin condition. Moved by how much her condition improved through the healing waters, he opened an inn so more people could experience it. We were told by the staff to park in the area designated for day-use visitors. A spacious lobby. In the lobby, there’s a café called Kannon-yama Fruit Parlor. It uses fruits primarily from Kannon-yama in Wakayama Prefecture. It looks delicious 😋 Now, let’s head to the room. The ryokan has four accommodation wings: Main, South, East, and West, each offering different room types. We’re staying in a Deluxe Twin Room on the 6th floor of the Main Building. Just inside the entrance, there’s an open closet without a door. At the center of the room, there’s a spacious twin bed area with a relaxed layout. The beds are semi-double size with Simmons mattresses. There’s another closet in the back of the room, stocked with yukata robes and haori jackets. The obi belt has your room number on it—so even if you forget your room number while at the large bath, no worries! They also offered complimentary hot spring manju (sweet buns). The room was renovated in April 2024, so everything looks very clean and new. The street in front of the hotel is lined with souvenir shops and restaurants, creating a lively atmosphere typical of a hot spring town. Right next to the hotel is a famous Noboribetsu attraction—the “Karakuri Enma Hall.” We stopped by Seicomart, a convenience store well-known throughout Hokkaido. n fact, Seicomart is said to be the very first convenience store in Japan. While it’s mostly found in Hokkaido, there are also locations in Saitama and Ibaraki in the Kanto region. My husband tried the mountain wasabi salt ramen—he choked a little but finished it, saying it was delicious. Next, we’re heading to the large public bath. On the way, we pass through the open atrium of the Main Building. On the basement level, there’s the “Waku Waku Plaza,” with karaoke, bars, and restaurants. In the atrium stands a giant gold-leaf monument called “Ogonkanabo” (The Golden Demon Club). There’s also a souvenir shop called “Yu no Machi.” The large public bath is located a bit away from the Main Building. We move through the hotel using escalators and elevators to get there. There are 10 main types of hot spring water in Japan. At Dai-ichi Takimotokan, you can enjoy five of those types in their large bath area. There are a total of 35 baths, spread across an area of approximately 1,500 tsubo (about 5,000 square meters), making it one of the largest hot spring facilities in Japan. The five spring types are: sulfur spring, saline spring, acidic iron sulfate spring, sodium bicarbonate spring, and glauber’s salt spring. Each has different health benefits, and you can take your time soaking in each one. First up is the sulfur spring, which represents Noboribetsu. This milky-white water is said to promote blood circulation and help with chronic skin issues. The saline spring forms a salt barrier on your skin, helping retain warmth and keeping your body heated from the core. The acidic iron sulfate spring is known for its strong antibacterial properties, said to be good for acne and atopic dermatitis. The sodium bicarbonate spring is known as a “beauty bath,” helping to exfoliate dead skin and leaving your skin silky smooth. The glauber’s salt spring is believed to help with high blood pressure, arteriosclerosis, and external wounds. At Dai-ichi Takimotokan, there is a dedicated yu-mori (hot spring guardian) who carefully maintains the baths. They manage the high-temperature spring water—around 60°C—daily to keep it at the ideal bathing temperature. A bath believed to have been used by the founder Kinzo Takimoto for his wife’s healing has been faithfully recreated. Here, you can enjoy pure, 100% natural hot spring water, flowing straight from the source with no added water. Traditional methods like yu-guruma and yu-dana are still used to regulate water temperature. One of the unique charms of this ryokan is that, even in the outdoor bath, you can enjoy hot spring drinks like beer or sake served in a wooden masu cup. Dinner is served at the buffet dining area on the 3rd floor of the Main Building. The venue is divided into two sections: “Primeval Forest” and “Snow Country.” We dined in the Primeval Forest section. A well-balanced mix of Japanese and Western dishes is laid out—it’s hard to choose! Many dishes feature local ingredients, offering a distinctly Hokkaido-style menu. The luxurious sashimi corner really catches the eye. Believe it or not, there’s even a whole bluefin tuna head on display! Snow crab! Yes, this is all-you-can-eat too. At the live kitchen, you can enjoy freshly made ramen, tempura, and steak. There were also some rare dishes from Myanmar and Vietnam. Everything was more filling than it looked, and our plates filled up quickly. You can pile on as much salmon and ikura (salmon roe) as you like! Even though we might have taken a bit too much… we still made sure to grab some dessert! Looking down, we spotted statues of a red ogre and a blue ogre. Let’s head to the breakfast venue. The lineup offers a well-balanced selection, perfect for a nutritious start to the day. There’s a wide variety of gently seasoned Japanese side dishes. In addition to Japanese cuisine, classic Western breakfast options are also available. At the live kitchen, they serve freshly cooked sunny-side-up eggs. They even had Katsugen, a lactic acid drink beloved by Hokkaido locals. It was a fully satisfying breakfast with plenty of variety. Around 7:30 AM, the venue started to get crowded, so we recommend going early. There’s a commemorative stamp in the lobby—perfect as a memory of your trip. With delicious food and a variety of healing hot springs, it was a truly relaxing stay. Here’s a breakdown of the accommodation cost. Next time, we’ll bring you videos of sightseeing spots like Jigokudani and Jozankei Onsen, a hidden gem near Sapporo.
