NIPPONIA HOTEL Hakodate Minatomachi | Cuisine Page Production

We produced the cuisine page for the historic NIPPONIA HOTEL Hakodate Minatomachi. Set against the history and culture of Hakodate, the page was built to raise the appeal of the hotel and the value of a stay there through its food.

Background

NIPPONIA HOTEL Hakodate Minatomachi was created by renovating historic buildings, offering a distinctive space in which guests experience the local culture. The client needed a dedicated page focused on cuisine — the factor that most shapes guest satisfaction — conveying the appeal of local ingredients and the intent behind each dish.

The challenge was to keep the dignity of the brand intact while letting the food take the leading role.

Approach

Webharu set the concept as expressing the history and culture of Hakodate through food. To bring out the color and texture of local ingredients, we adopted a photography-led layout. We balanced white space and composition so that each dish’s story and the background of its ingredients come across naturally, bringing the act of browsing closer to the act of dining.

To guide visitors smoothly toward booking a stay, we placed CTA buttons along the natural flow of the eye.

Scope

• Planning and design structure for the cuisine page
• Webflow implementation and animation setup
• Responsive optimization for smartphone and tablet

What we focused on

A hotel’s cuisine page feeds directly into the decision to book. Rather than a plain menu listing, we built it as an experiential design that conveys the value of the stay itself.

Calm tones and soft lighting befitting Hakodate’s port town harmonize tradition with a sense of quality. We aimed for an immersive visual experience that makes a visitor feel, naturally, that this is where they want to eat.

In closing

We designed this page as a brand expression that fuses the region’s history with the beauty of its food. Webharu specializes in web production that designs food, space, and story with an understanding of the hotel and tourism industries.
