Hi everyone, is Kitty again ^^. In my previous travel diary, I promised to introduce more regarding Sapporo Cross hotel. Here you are.
The special bout this hotel and is my most favorite part is it have Doiyokujou (Japanese bath).
Here is the close look of
Even last night I was exhausted but I still insist to wake up early today, 5.30am just to try the Daiyokujou.
Daiyokujou open at 6am.It located at the highest floor of hotel which is 18th floor. It separated to women and men.
This is the entrance.
You need to take off your cloths and put in this basket. If you bring any valuable stuffs Eg like cell phone, you can keep into the locker, and keep the key around wrist as wrist band.
There is water machine and weighting Scale after the dressing room.
Take plenty of water, at least one cup and weight your body before you enter bathing room.
Not to forget, you only allow to bring one small hand tower to cover your front body to enter bathing room. Clean your body and take a bath first before enter the Daiyokujou. Chair, soap and shampoo are provided.
You can enjoy Daiyokujou after bath. Taking a hot bath before enter Daiyokujou not only for hygiene purpose and it is also to promote your blood circulation, and enable your body to adapt hot environment and won't easily get dizziness when u are in Daiyokujou. One thing must bare in mind, the suitable time for Daiyokujou is from 5 minutes to 15 minutes. Don't force yourself. 1st time I only took for 5 to 10 minutes. You can enjoy the Daiyokujou and at the same times enjoy the outside scene. It was beautiful.
After that you can choose to take a bath again or just use towel to dry up your body. Daiyokujou have lots of minerals inside which good to our skin, so I just wipe up my body, weight my body and dress up in dressing room.
This is the powder room.
There provides hair dryer and lotions for you to use.
The hair dryer so high tech, can choose to dry up your scalp and skin too.
I put some lotion on my face, and it's comfortable and moisture.
There is a rest station at the center of Daiyokujou, there is vending machine and sofa.
You can buy a drinks here while enjoying the beautiful scene outside of hotel. It's so relaxing. It's very important to drink plenty of water after hot bath ya.
I met Renata in hotel 's restaurant, located at 3rd floor. There were variety of choices of food.
What I must have everyday is Hokkaido fresh milk. It's so delicious!! I love the Hokkaido curry soup too.
It's different from typical Japanese curry soup which is thick and sweet. This one come with clear and more herbs inside , I like it ^^.
After buffet breakfast, we meet Naomi-san at hotel lobby lounge which is located at 2nd floor at 0830am. Today only Naomi-san with us, because Memmy-san had meeting in Tokyo. She will join us on the next day ^^. After a warm hugs for each other in this freezing morning, we were excited to start our first day bus tour to Asahiyama zoo! Renata was so excited for this, because she love animals ^^.
We walked to Jr station which is only 5 minutes from our hotel. Naomi-san help us to buy the tickets,
and me and Renata busy taking photo outdoors. Even It was my first day to meet Renata, but we feel close to each other. Non-stop chit chat and taking photo with her. Hehe
I saw everyone in station carrying umbrella, and Naomi-san told me today going to rain according to the weather report.I feel shocked, because I just leave up my umbrella at hotel. Fingers crossed don't rain please. ><
3 of us before depart.
It took around 2 hours to reach Asahiyama zoo.
Wefie before Renata taking nap.
