It was perfect. Seriously. Open bar with a pretty stellar collection of local Whiskey. Might disappoint those looking for Western Cocktails (they have them, but they won't be the best you've tried), but why would you order that at a local Ryokan in Otaru Japan?? Ask them for their "o-su-su-me" ("recommendation") and just enjoy yourself. Room was perfect, staff were helpful, food was excellent, and Otaru neighboring areas were so much fun for those looking to enjoy the Hokkaido region. Hope to stay here again one day.

Remarkable boutique hotel

Outstanding architectural and interior design evident in the change of store houses to a remarkably well operated boutique hotel. The environment, service and food received at Kuramure is definitely worth its room rate.

Fantastic hotel with amazing service

This has to be the best hotel I've stayed in in recent memory. Mainly because it was unlike any other 4 or 5 star hotel I've visited. We had a great view of the snow from our window and slept like babies.

Relaxing Japanese style resort

Its located a few train stops or around a 30 min drive away from Sapporo via the highway but its in its own world. The resort facilities are modern, great service all round Onsen was of excellent quality and all meals (which are included in the price) are a great sample of traditional Japanese meals. Recommended as a great breather when travelling to Hokkaio and Sapporo in particular.

오타루 가족과 함께 여행하기 좋은 료칸

전통적인 료칸은 아니지만 깔끔하고 조용합니다. 현대적인 외관과 전통 양식이 혼합된 느낌입니다. 제가 선택한 전망에서는 창문을 열어두면 물소리가 들려 매우 좋았습니다. 직원들은 매우 친절했고 서비스 또한 훌륭합니다. 방에도 넓은 욕조가 있어 아이와 함께 이용하기 좋았습니다. 대욕탕에서 피로를 풀기도 좋았습니다. 여름이라 외부 탕은 벌레가 좀 있었지만 내부에도 탕이 있어 이용하는데 문제는 없습니다. 대욕탕은 현대적인 목욕탕 느낌입니다. 넓은 침대 두 개와 바닥에서 잘 수 있는 방이 추가로 있었습니다. 체크인 할 때는 택시로 이동했지만 돌아갈 때는 직원이 송영 버스를 이용할 수 있도록 도와줬습니다. 10:30, 11:10 두 번 이용할 수 있었고 오타루역 또는 오타루 칫코 역 까지 이용 가능하였습니다.
