Motomachi House X Cafe - Hakodate

I dont really review but I really feel that this is probably the best hostel in the best location in Hakodate, especially when they're the new kids on the block! The manager of the guesthouse is really friendly and will recommend you great spots to visit, as well as provide you with local insights. They're all fluent in English too, which can be really helpful. The rooms are spacious, warm, cosy and clean. Toilets are clean and spacious too (especially for Japanese standards . They're currently creating a cafe/work space with a Sapporo Classic on tap (hard to find in Hokkaido! Their own concoction of salty waffles and Hokkaido premium ice cream is amazing too. Would stay there again.

It was my first time staying in a guest house and I truly had enjoyed the local experience. Location was perfect as it was walking distance to the key major leisure spots and most importantly, it was clean. Very ideal for couples or family!

This place is awesome! Very clean and cosy! Place is really near the bay area so it is very convenient. Really loved the interior of the shared space/cafe. Masahiro is really helpful to me as well when I stayed.

Authentic Japanese guesthouse experience clean neat and comfortable. beautiful host who gave us wonderful local views into the hakodate city. below the guest house is a caffe that serves lunch menu and teatime. the veggie teller lunch is simply delicious and the ingredients are harvested from a local farm! fantastic experience and highly recommended!

My short stay in hakodate was very pleasant especially because of this pension. the owner and host is really nice and funny. I had a good time with him and others. the tatami room was spacious and clean. due to the hokkaido climate, there is a heating in the room. toilet and bathroom were queaky clean. they can also rent bath and towel if they have forgotten to bring some. there is also a washing machine that they can use for only 100 yen. just now the owner builds a small caffe in the house. I hope it'll be done when I come back!
