Hotel Analysis
Based on 2 sites · 253 reviews
A 2-star ryokan-style lodging in the outskirts of Kushiro. Guests frequently praise the 'excellent onsen' in reviews. The strongly acidic hot spring water in the open-air and indoor baths stands out.
Reviews across sites rave about the onsen water quality and its relaxing effects. Staff friendliness is repeatedly mentioned. Breakfast is typical Japanese style, so don't expect Western food. Rooms are clean and cozy, but lack of air conditioning is a drawback in summer.
However, the station is not within walking distance; taxi or bus is needed. Few nearby eateries, so dinner-inclusive plans are recommended. Some note issues with room locks.
Best for solo travelers who love onsens and nature.
