WE Hotel Toya

On the northern shore of Lake Toya in Hokkaido, WE Hotel Toya, Dusit Collection is a compact lakeside retreat shaped by Japanese design and the surrounding volcanic landscape. The hotel offers 58 rooms and villas, many oriented towards the lake and fitted with private wooden tubs on their balconies, creating an easy connection with the changing seasons outside. Interiors use warm timber, natural fabrics and restrained contemporary details, while the on-site hot spring provides a quieter bathing experience. Dining focuses on Hokkaido produce at EZO Cuisine, with regional Japanese cooking, international touches and seasonal menus, while La Saison serves Japanese and Thai noodles in a more relaxed setting. TARU Bar adds sake, whisky and cocktails to the evening, and a lake-view spa, karaoke room, game room and shuttle service round out the practical amenities. The atmosphere is calm, design-conscious and closely tied to Toya’s forests, water and wide-open skies.
