Very convenient location close to the train station. Clean and modern facilities with public baths and bar. Fantastic breakfast with a choice of Japanese set breakfast or western style breakfast buffet. Highly recommend for those looking to stay in Otaru in comfort.

Dated hotel not very well maintained. Large room but mold on windows. Breakfast was not good. Location was great, free bicycle rentals, onsen and sauna were great as well.
The STAFF are amazing they were the BEST, helped all the time. We only stayed one night but would stay again. Having the breakfast food option was great too.
A great place to stay if you are flying late into or have an early flight out of CTS. Hotel is dated, but very clean. Very convenient to shopping and dining at CTS depending on the time of day you are there. Restaurants and shops closes by 9p.
Convenient location. Just 2 min walk to the scenic Otaru canal, and lots of nice restaurants. Hotel staff is nice, speaks good English, and has arranged Japanese style room with tatami as requested. Great fun for a family!

The hotel is near Lawson. The staff is friendly and helpful. They would help to carry the luggage when you arrive or leave. Only one thing, the bathroom is not bright enough. The other things are okay.
The front desk agent, Ms Umeda helped me a lot when I had a trouble. She helped me and save my Japan trip!
Thank you so much!!
This is our second time to stay at Authent Hotel, convenient location and loved the Polo Star top lounge. Nice view and so relaxing after long walking sightseeing.
The Authent Hotel is a lovely hotel. I had a room on the top corner overlooking the street and it was spacious and nice. Very comfortable bed. Breakfast is traditional Japanese style, with a couple of options to choose from. I had a beautiful sashimi bowl, with miso soup and another dish I’m not familiar with.
