Rooms have all the basics and have an onsen on site, a good place to stay if you are traveling to Shiretoko and are on a tight budget

Daniel Japan

Very affordable hostel with a hot spring, basic budget accommodations but a cheaper way to do it than some of the other places in the area.

Daniel Japan

I loved it there! It was so cozy. I felt right at home.

Victoria United States of America

Dormitories were nice and clean. You sleep in a somewhat enclosed box with curtains, so no disturbances from light going on and off by roommates. Nice living room. Quite luxurious for a dormitory.

Dennis Netherlands

free onsen for use with extremely friendly staff. very clean facilities

Lionel Singapore

The facilities are great especially the onsen. There is a coin laundry in the Hanare. The Hanare lounge is also very nice and comfy. There are alcohol vending machines in the main hall.

Anonymous Japan

It is a traditional Japanese hotel with onsen facilities. Our private room was clean and comfortable. We were impressed by the quality of food (traditional Japanese cuisine) served by the hotel as they were made of fresh local produces and seafood.

Anonymous Hong Kong

They upgraded me from a dormitory room to a single room which was nice. Great onsen bath with very legitimate minerals. Amazing value for the bath. Great and simple breakfast. Location is not great as it is a little far from the main utoro village but meant you could enjoy nature.

Walker Japan

Dinner was cheap, local, delicious. Great sashimi, deer (shika) yakiniku, crab. Perfect after hiking in Shiretoko. Book dinner at reception when you check in.

Oscar Japan

Even if they don't speak English, most of the staff were helpful. Because the hotel hadn't a lot of customers, they gave me a private room instead of a bed in the dormitory.

This property is a ryokan, which is a type of traditional Japanese Inn. Learn more

  • What's a ryokan?
    A ryokan is a traditional Japanese inn. They usually feature bathhouses, multicourse dinners, communal spaces where guests can relax, and rooms with woven-straw flooring and futon mats. Like hotels, a range of ryokans (from budget to luxury) is available. What originated centuries ago as a free rest house for long-distance travelers has evolved into a popular destination for relaxation surrounded by therapeutic mineral springs.
  • What are the big differences between a ryokan and a hotel?
    Unlike a hotel, where the guest room is just a place to turn in for the night, a ryokan is more than just a place to sleep. In Japan, many travelers journey long distances to relax in a hot spring bath and feast on a traditional multicourse dinner – staying in a ryokan is an experience in and of itself. These ryokans typically have Japanese-style rooms with woven-straw floors and futon beds (no Western beds and carpeting). You should also remove your shoes at the entrance of the room, or before you enter it. Modern ryokans might serve buffet-style meals in a dining area, while more traditional ryokans tend to serve in-room dinners. Some ryokan rooms have a private bathroom, and others might just have a shared bathroom.
  • What's a kaiseki meal?
    Kaiseki is the culinary highlight at a ryokan, embodying beautifully presented dishes that delight both the palate and the eyes. Every one of the 10 to 15 dishes that make up the multicourse Japanese dinner is prepared in a way that highlights the unique textures, colors, and flavors of featured seasonal ingredients and local specialties. Most commonly served at special restaurants and ryokans, a traditional kaiseki dinner usually consists of bite-size appetizers, fresh sashimi (raw fish, like sushi), soup, grilled fish or meat, a hot-pot dish, rice with miso soup, and a small dessert.
  • What's a yukata?
    A yukata is a casual summer kimono or robe, typically made of light cotton. Many ryokans provide guests with yukata robes during their stay. In some areas, it's common to see guests strolling through the neighborhood in their yukatas. The loose-fitting garment is perfect for sleeping and relaxing in.
  • How should I wear a yukata?
    First, put your arms through the sleeves like you would with a robe. Take the right side of the yukata and wrap it across your body. Then, take the left side and wrap it over the right, making sure that the robe is level at your ankles. Pinning the yukata closed on the right side, wrap the sash around your waist a couple of times and then tie a bow. Generally, the bow is tied around the waist for women, and the hips for men.
  • What's a Japanese hot spring (onsen)?
    Onsen (literally "hot spring") is a term often used to refer to both the mineral-rich hot springs and the bathing facilities that house them. Whether the bath is public or private, gender-segregated or mixed, indoor or outdoor, soaking and unwinding in the soothing geothermal waters at an onsen is a millennia-old custom deeply embedded in Japanese culture.
  • What's standard bathing etiquette?
    At a bathhouse—onsen or not—guests are expected to remove all clothing in their respective changing rooms before entering the bathing area. As a common courtesy, once inside the bathing area, guests should wash and rinse their bodies thoroughly before quietly stepping into the hot water. Whether you relax in solitude or converse softly with others is up to you, but guests should always be mindful of others. Wash towels are often used to cover one’s private areas while walking around. However, note that you should not put towels in the water.
  • Why are tattoos not allowed?
    While tattoos have become more popular among Japan's youth, many Japanese people still associate them with outlaws and organized crime. Nowadays, not all businesses ban customers with tattoos, but you might still be refused admission to bathhouses and swimming pools. Small tattoos can be covered up using waterproof bandaids, but keep in mind that each property has the final say on what’s acceptable.
