It was a wonderful experience. I stay at Winkel with my two kids. The private onsen was a very special experience. I appreciated that the hotel receptionist responded my emails promptly and called a jumble taxi for us in advance to bring my suitcases and us to the Otaru station. Highly recommend.

The keg in the room, the hot tub on the balcony, and the snow make winkle village magical. We were also able to get a discount to the local ski area and we walked there

The courage was really nice and we'll equipped. It was traditional Japanese style of bedding and dining seeing. Sleeping was not a problem although you have to move the table and setup two mattresses in the living room every night. For westerners the lack of proper chairs may be a problem. It's fun for one night as a novelty and to experience the local culture but after that is just not comfortable.
If you're planning to go skiing at Kiroro, take note that the direct road is closed for the winter. You have to take a detour through Yoichi which makes it a 1h20min trip.
We book a bungalow for 4 person. The photo showed from the app was a double storey bungalow which has living area at the ground floor while the sleeping area is at the upper floor. When we enter the room we were totally shock. It’s only a room connected with the dining area n tv n 4 mattress put together on the floor n it cost us more than sgd500! The room is full of bbq smell. The only good thing about this place is the friendly staff. That’s it.
