About OMO5 Hakodate Hotel

OMO5 Hakodate ass en Hotel virum Gare vun Hakodate op Hokkaido, Japan. En existent Gebai gouf ënner dem Konzept "120 Prozent Hakodate" nei gebrandet, erweidert a renovéiert. E grousst Glasmolerei-Konschtwierk, inspiréiert vu lokalen Attraktiounen, begréisst d'Gäscht um Agank. Den ëffentleche Beräich, genannt OMO Base, bitt verschidde Méiglechkeeten, fir Zäit ze verbréngen, wéi zum Beispill mat Frënn ze relaxen. D'Gäschtzëmmere si mat Wandillustratioune vun der Nuetslandschaft vun Hakodate dekoréiert. De Buffetrestaurant huet eng Live-Kichen, déi vum stäreförmege Fort Goryokaku inspiréiert ass, souwéi Lanternen a Pendelluuchten, déi aus Fëschernetzer gemaach sinn.

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.
