The "Free Hong Kong Mail" for the voucher was delivered by SF Express. I placed the order today (Monday) and received it the next day (Tuesday), which is extremely efficient. The last time I visited Hokkaido via Sapporo Airport, I deliberately skipped Hakodate because taking the Hokkaido Shinkansen from Shin-Aomori Station to Shin-Hakodate-Hokuto Station, then transferring to the JR Hakodate Main Line to Hakodate Station, only takes about 1.5 hours. This is much more convenient than the over 3.5-hour journey from Sapporo to Hakodate. For a relaxed trip for middle-aged travelers, the route Sendai - Aomori - Hakodate - Hachinohe - Sendai, using a JR Pass to reserve seats for free at the designated seat ticket machines, allows you to enjoy leisurely times and various delicious foods. It's very cost-effective and worthwhile.

The location is quite close to the station, and most importantly, it's relatively new. There aren't many new hotels in Akita, so I'll definitely stay here again next time I visit! However, the parking tower was a bit inconvenient. The two cars in front of us were too large to fit, so we waited for quite a while. We eventually decided to park in the TIMES parking lot next to the hotel. Although it was more expensive, it's a flat parking lot, which makes it easy to get things out of the car whenever needed. The only downside is that it might be inconvenient to unload luggage if it's raining. Overall, though, it was good!

Great 4.0
Hotel Location: The hotel is near Akita city center but a bit far from Akita Station. There are no large shopping malls or supermarkets nearby, but directly across from the hotel, there's a street full of izakayas and local eateries. The hotel has a very small multi-story parking garage, but it often requires a long wait. We ultimately chose to find flat parking nearby (definitely avoid the multi-story parking garage behind the hotel building; it's a rip-off. Try to find flat parking if possible). Also, a reminder not to check in too late, as parking in the area fills up quickly. Cleanliness: Overall clean and tidy, though the rooms are a bit small. Transportation Convenience: There's a bus stop in front of the hotel. If you're driving, you can use the bus bay to drop off luggage. Service: Overall good. The staff speak fluent English. Although the floor facilities are clearly marked in the elevator, their actual locations can be a bit hard to find, so you might need to look around a bit.

We had such a wonderful experience on our Mt Fuji and surrounding areas tour. Our guide Sherry was absolutely fantastic — friendly, knowledgeable, patient and very helpful throughout the entire day. He made the trip feel relaxed and enjoyable while also making sure we saw some beautiful locations and had plenty of time to take photos and enjoy the scenery. His local knowledge really added to the experience, and everything was well organised from start to finish. Mt Fuji and the surrounding areas were stunning, but having such a great guide made the day even more memorable. We really appreciated the kindness, professionalism and effort put into making sure we had a great time. Highly recommend this tour and our guide Sherry to anyone visiting Japan. Thank you for such a beautiful and unforgettable day

What to know before visiting Akita

What to do in Akita throughout the year

Akita’s bookings on Klook are dominated by Tours, so expect experiences that highlight regional culture, seasonal sights and outdoor excursions. The city’s calendar swings between a clear late-spring peak and a quiet winter: May is the busiest month while December sees the lightest demand. That rhythm means you’ll find lively festival-style or nature-led tours in late spring and summer, and calmer, more reflective activities in late autumn and winter. For planning decisions, decide whether you want peak-season atmosphere or quieter discovery — Klook booking data shows these seasonal shifts clearly.

Best months to visit Akita

May stands out as the busiest month on Klook, with Peak demand in May, while December registers as the quietest month with Very quiet demand. Prices move through the year too: past bookings show the priciest median paid in July at HKD 959, and the lowest median in February at HKD 437. Where demand and price align, expect lively crowds and higher paid medians in late spring and mid-summer; the quieter months like December and October give a more peaceful visit and lower typical prices.

January Busier than usual HKD 546

Tips for travellers from Hong Kong

Most travellers book well ahead — Klook bookings show people typically lock things in about 60 days ahead, with the earliest planners around 80 days out. That means you can plan confidently now for a trip in peak months like May or July, since availability and popular tours fill sooner. If you prefer flexibility, last-minute options still appear about 8 days before travel, but don’t rely on them in peak season. Use Klook to secure tours you really want, check cancellation and change terms, and book earlier for May–July to get the experiences you’re after; Klook booking data underpins these timing trends.
