This time, I stayed at Hotel Resol Hakodate, which features a bar on the 10th floor. On the last night of my trip, I decided to visit it. The bar, called Bar Twilight, opens at 7 p.m. After resting in my room, I headed there. Bar Twilight impressed me, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Hakodate.
The bar isn’t widely advertised, so I wouldn’t have discovered it if I weren’t staying at the hotel. This hidden gem deserves more attention.
The menu offers a limited selection of cocktails and whiskeys, but I managed to capture this photo of the menu. The table charge is 500 yen, cocktails start from 700 yen, and whiskey is priced from 1,000 yen. I had two drinks, and the total was a little over 2,000 yen—quite reasonable!
They also serve food, including pizza for 1,000 yen and snacks like chocolate and edamame. The bar has just four counter seats and four tables, creating a cozy atmosphere. For 2,500 yen, they offer 90 minutes of free drink refills, which is an excellent deal!
Although I went straight from my room, Bar Twilight welcomes non-hotel guests too. In fact, I noticed several locals enjoying drinks after work. If I lived in Hakodate, this would undoubtedly be a regular spot for me.
One pleasant surprise was the complimentary snacks included with the table charge—pineapple, cheese, and uncured ham. With this, I didn’t need to order any additional food!
The bar’s window seats offer stunning views of Hakodate Port at night. The illuminated Masyumaru ship was breathtaking, and in summer, you can even enjoy fireworks from here.
Paired with a blue cocktail, the view felt like heaven.
One of my drinks was the signature Hakodate Blue. Despite its vibrant color, it was a light cocktail with a refreshing pineapple juice base, perfectly matching the pineapple served earlier.
And this color is suitable for this view.
I also tried a God Father. I initially wanted a French Connection, but it wasn’t on the menu. The God Father, a whiskey-based cocktail with a hint of sweet amaretto, was strong but enjoyable—a great way to end my evening.
