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.

지금까지 방문한 료칸 중 최고였습니다. 음식과 음료 모두 만족스러웠으며 직원들의 접객도 아주 좋았습니다. 온천 시설도 좋았구요. 다만 호텔 시설이 노후하여 방 컨디션이 조금 아쉬웠습니다.
