About OMO5 Hakodate Hotel

OMO5 Hakodate is een hotel gelegen tegenover station Hakodate in Hokkaido, Japan. Een bestaand gebouw werd gerebrand, uitgebreid en gerenoveerd onder het concept "120 procent Hakodate". Een groot glas-in-loodkunstwerk, geïnspireerd op lokale bezienswaardigheden, verwelkomt gasten bij de entree. De publieke ruimte, OMO Base genaamd, biedt verschillende manieren om tijd door te brengen, zoals ontspannen met vrienden. De gastenkamers zijn voorzien van wandillustraties van het nachtelijke stadsbeeld van Hakodate. Het buffetrestaurant heeft een open keuken geïnspireerd op het stervormige fort Goryokaku, aangevuld met lantaarns en hanglampen gemaakt van visnetten.

Based on the concept, at the entrance, guests are welcomed by a huge stained-glass artwork inspired by Hakodate’s famous tourist attractions.

Production Technology
The buffet restaurant features a live kitchen inspired by the star-shaped Goryokaku Fort. The lively dining area is designed with elements of Hakodate's morning fish market, including squid-hanging lanterns and pendant lights made from fishing nets, evoking the vibrant atmosphere of the local port.
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.
