We sincerely thank everyone who stayed with us over the past year.
In 2025, the staff at UNWIND HOTEL & BAR OTARU will continue to work hard to provide you with an even better stay and heartwarming experience.

Here in Otaru, Hokkaido, where UNWIND HOTEL & BAR OTARU is located, the snow has settled, transforming the city into a serene winter wonderland.
The crisp morning air brushing against your face not only brings the refreshing spirit of the New Year but also serves as a gentle reminder of the steady passage of seasons.
How did you spend your New Year’s holiday in 2025?
Some of you may have enjoyed a relaxing time at home, while others might have gone on a trip, visited a shrine for the first prayer of the year, or even worked through the holiday season.
At UNWIND HOTEL & BAR OTARU, we began 2025 with a special twist on our usual high tea-style breakfast, incorporating the rich flavors of traditional Japanese New Year cuisine.
Welcoming our guests with these vibrant dishes allowed us to start the year on a delightful and festive note, truly fitting for the beginning of a new chapter!
A Festive High Tea-Style Breakfast to Celebrate the New Year
For a limited time during the New Year, UNWIND HOTEL & BAR OTARU offered a special breakfast menu blending tradition and modern flair. While our popular homemade scones and daily toast selections remained unchanged, we added a touch of Japanese tradition with elements of osechi cuisine.

Guests enjoyed a luxurious morning, savoring the festive elegance of this unique menu and embracing the special feeling that comes with the start of a new year.
