Hakodate Yunokawa Onsen Umi to Akari/ Hewitt Resort
Located in Yunokawa Onsen-one of Hokkaido’s three major hot spring resorts-this seaside retreat offers a luxurious stay overlooking the Tsugaru Strait. The highlight is the rooftop infinity open-air bath, where the horizon blends seamlessly with the sea and sky. At night, guests can enjoy the enchanting view of the moon and the glowing lights of fishing boats that inspired the hotel’s name, “Umi to Akari” (Sea and Light). Watching the moonlight shimmer on the water while sipping local Hakodate sake is an unforgettable experience.
If you want a more comfortable stay and also want to soak in an onsen while looking out at the ocean, this place is a solid choice.

Kyobashi Edogrand
Here is a shopping and business facility composed of two modern buildings attached to Meidi-ya Kyobashi, a historical structure seen as the symbol of Kyobashi. This skyscraper is also known for boasting top class earthquake resistance in Japan.
The mall has plenty of dining options, from coffee and desserts to wagyu BBQ, so it’s very convenient for meals.
It’s close to the subway and Tokyo Station, so it’s a nice place to take a break, recharge, or just wander around a bit. -

Michi-no-Eki Kishu Binchotan Memorial Park
This eclectic roadside stop stays true to strong heat and long-burn local culture of charcoal from its perch in Akitsugawa, the birthplace of Kishu Binchotan charcoal located in Tanabe City, Wakayama. Use this one-stop shop as a café, complete with one-of-a-kind dishes such as Binchotan Ramen and Binchotan Coffee, or head to the all-weather, roofed barbecue area where you can fire up for private charcoal grilling.
They have Binchotan charcoal soft serve here! It tastes a bit like brown sugar, and the added cookie gives it a nice texture. Pretty unique experience.
