We are participating in April Dream, an initiative to share dreams on April 1st. This press release is a dream of "Hamano Hotels.".

Thoughts and Background Behind Our Dream

From "staying" at a hot spring inn to "savoring" it.

The value of accommodation in hot spring areas is undergoing a significant transformation. Hamano Hotels Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Sapporo) is working to create new accommodation experiences at its three hot spring hotels in Hokkaido, where guests can savor the charm of the region with all five senses, with the warmth of the hot springs, comfortable lodging, and especially "food and cuisine" taking center stage.

Until now, the value of hot spring inns has primarily focused on "space" such as the hot springs and scenery (tourist attractions). In an era where personal travel experiences are highly valued, we believe that by establishing "food" as a strong core, we can enhance the overall satisfaction of the trip.

Cuisine is not merely a meal; it reflects the culture, climate, and seasonal changes of the land. That is precisely why we are committed to offering cuisine as an "experience.".

Our Initiatives So Far

Towards sustainable inns that live in harmony with the region and nature.

We also value deepening our connection with the region through cuisine (over half of the ingredients we serve are locally sourced). By strengthening collaboration with local producers and delivering the stories behind the ingredients to our customers, we aim to enhance the value of the region itself.

Furthermore, we have established rules and policies to reduce food waste and are promoting environmentally conscious initiatives, such as an amenity style where guests can choose only what they need. We will continue to aim for sustainable operations in hot spring areas that coexist with nature.

The "Chef's Commitment" Residing in Each Facility

While each has a different style, what they have in common is the desire to "deliver the blessings of the region in the most delicious way."

The Future We Aim For: "Inns That Become Destinations"

We aim to be not just "inns to stay at," but "inns where visiting and spending time is the purpose in itself." Guests visit for the cuisine, refresh their mind and body in the hot springs, and are healed by the time spent in nature.

All of these elements come together to create a memorable stay experience.

Moving forward, we will continue to pioneer new possibilities for hot spring inns through value creation centered around "food.".
