About OMO5 Hakodate Hotel

OMO5 Hakodate és un hotel situat davant de l'estació de Hakodate, a Hokkaido, Japó. Un edifici existent va ser rebatejat, ampliat i renovat sota el concepte de Hakodate al 120 per cent. Una gran obra d'art de vitrall inspirada en les atraccions locals dona la benvinguda als hostes a l'entrada. La zona pública, anomenada OMO Base, ofereix diverses maneres de passar el temps, com ara relaxar-se amb els amics. Les habitacions presenten il·lustracions murals del paisatge nocturn de Hakodate. El restaurant bufet compta amb una cuina en directe inspirada en el fort de Goryokaku, en forma d'estrella, a més de llanternes i llums penjants fets amb xarxes de pesca.

Unique Properties: Based on the concept, at the entrance, guests are welcomed by a huge stained-glass artwork inspired by Hakodate’s famous tourist attractions. In the public space called "OMO Base", we propose various ways to spend time, such as relaxing with friends, based on the concept of "designing how guests spend their time and enjoy their stay."

We designed an exciting facility that encapsulates the essence of travel and evokes the unique spirit of Hoshino Resorts.
Inspiration: As a brand of "urban hotels that boost your travel excitement," Hoshino Resorts is expanding its "OMO" hotels across Japan. This time, an existing hotel in a prime location in front of Hakodate Station, Hokkaido, has been rebranded as an "OMO" property, with extensions and renovations. This hotel's concept of "120% Hakodate" incorporates unique local elements of Hakodate that are expressed throughout the hotel, aiming for a design that enhances the excitement of travel in true OMO style.
Project Duration: The project started in September 2023 in Hokkaido in Japan and finished in May 2024.
This hotel opened on July 6, 2024.
