“a smart choice when u come hakodate”

clean and warm

Kindness of the host. Very good bedding. Relaxing atmosphere.

Incredibly welcoming. Superb value. The most generous hosts. The rooms are immaculate, and you feel at home immediately. What more could you ask for?

“Simply lovely!”

The hospitality was off the charts! We were welcomed with a smile and a delicious cup of tea. The house was beautiful, clean and well decorated. Even got a beautiful little souvenir as a permanent memory to take back home. 10/10, would recommend to everyone that is visiting or planning to visit Hakodate!

“Lovely stay in a good location, wish we'd stayed for more than 2 nights!”

A lovely guesthouse in a good location in Hakodate. It felt more like a family home than a B&B/guesthouse. The owners were incredibly welcoming and very helpful. We wished we had stayed for longer and if we ever go back to Hakodate we'd (hopefully) stay at Pension Jokura again.

The bed!!! Very clean and comfortable. Decoration in the house is very unique. You must experience it yourself.

Everything was exceptional, thank you for your hospitality and kindness!

“Magical accommodation, amazing hosts, comfortable & perfect location, highly recommend this place!”

**do not hesitate, book this place - you won't regret it! 😊** Where to begin, from start to finish my stay at Pension Jokura was magical. The family who run this guesthouse are very warm, wonderful, and lovely people and the decor is very cosy. You could spend hours looking around at all the little details and collectables. The facilities are clean and comfortable. Very comfortable futon, soft fluffy duvet and a nice amount of space. The women's shower is especially nice, you can shower "onsen" style. I also did laundry which cost only 400yen total (wash and dry). Location is fantastic, walkable distance to everything, including the red brick warehouses which are lovely to walk around, and only a quick tram ride away from the main JR station - don't let the fact that it isn't by the station deter you. This location is where you will want to be a lot of the time and the station is within easy walking distance (around 15 mins) and tram-accessible as mentioned above (3-4min walk away from tram stop) I rarely write lengthy reviews like this, but my stay was just so wonderful at pension Jokura that I really wanted to show my appreciation. The husband kindly drove me to the JR station which was greatly appreciated. Arigatou gozaimasu! ❤️

“Absolute gem in Hakodate”

What a gem! A lovely house filled with so many trinkets - there was just so much to see! Great shower room and room overall, too, I had a great sleep. Unlike some other commenters, I didn't hear anything from other guests. Nice amenities, too. The location was amazing, too! Absolutely wonderful owners, very, very kind - the husband dropped me off at my next accommodation so I didn't have to haul my luggage around. (Plus a very cute dog.) Would highly recommend staying at Pension Jokura!!

“Great local experience with great hosts”

It was a nice and cosy house full of decoration. Me and my wife were able to meet with the other Japanse guests that were more than happy to share information about their country. The owners provided us with information, gave us the possibility to go to a local onsen and were just very hospitable.

“It was amazing!”

The dream of every traveller! A beautifully decorated and cozy house, amazing and lovely hosts, and cozy and confortable rooms with every ameneties necessary. We slept really well in the futons! The owners couldn’t have received us any better, and gave us a printed photo they took of us with a hakodate postcard and even personalized chopsticks with our names carved in them for our honeymoon. We wish there would be a Pension Jokura in every place we visit! Would not have stayed in any other place in Hakodate.

“A personal experience in Hakodate”

This was a highlight of our trip after staying mostly in business hotels. The hosts are lovely people who do their best to make you feel welcome during your stay, even if it's only for one night. The house is also filled with knickknacks that give it a cosy and personal feel. Shared bathroom and toilet, but everything is really clean and well maintained. And it's located right by Motomachi, really close to the sights of Hakodate.

“Japan like I had imagined it in my dreams.”

This is the absolutely best pension we have had during our 3 weeks trip in Japan. The house is cute and the people in it the nicest you will find on this world.

“If you plan a visit in Hakodate, this is the place to stay!”

Everything: the kindness of the hosts, the magic atmosphere, the room and the common areas. Everything is immaculate. Absolutely perfect.

“The perfect place to stay”

I loved everything about Pension Jokura. From the welcome when we first arrived to the kindness we were shown throughout our stay. To top it all off, we were generously offered to be dropped off at the train station to save us from walking. Additionally, the hosts so kindly gave us a photo taken on arrival as a memento of our stay. We would have so loved to stay longer.

The owners are very welcoming and kind. Despite the language barrier, we felt right at home. I absolutely recommend this place, it was definitely a highlight of our month-long trip

“The perfect stay”

The hosts were so welcoming and made us feel at home !

“Superb stay - great value - Hakodat-yay!!!”

The hosts were exceptional, so friendly and welcoming. They could not have done more to make our stay in Hakodate special which included going out of their way to help us see the Mount in fhe bad weather. Truly special people

“Fantastic experience, thanks to the owner couple who share their house with travelers”

Jokura highlighted my whole trip in Japan. The house is very stylized with Artcraft. Good size room with traditional Japanese style make the living comfortable. Very nice owner couple who are good at hospitality, warm-kind-hearted which make travelers feel like living at home. Good location, walkable to the Hakodate Mt, morning market, bay area etc, which makes it easier to get to the cable station to appreciate the famous night view of the city, taste fresh seafood breakfast etc. I would definitely recommend Jokura to all my friends

The owners are as lovely as it can get. They welcomed us into their property full of care and memories. The place is a perfect base to explore Hakodate and experience some real Japanese hospitality.
