Staff was so welcoming and helpful - she even drew me a map of Otaru and wrote me a page on post-if about good restaurants! I left my prescribed dermatological cleanser in the shower, and she messaged me after I checked out and waited for me to collect it after I’ve finished my day touring around Otaru. Such a great experience!

Set in Otaru and within 1.5 km of Otaru Station, Guest House Ringo has a shared lounge, non-smoking rooms, and free WiFi. The property is situated 16 km from Otarushi Zenibako City Center, 34 km from Sapporo Station and 47 km from Shin-Sapporo Station. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen, a tour desk and luggage storage for guests.

We loved our stay at Guest House Ringo, the host was great with communication and the location was terrific. The only thing that might bother some people if you happen to be there in a heatwave, is that there is only a fan, no air conditioning in the rooms. We had a good stay and would rebook next time we visit!

    Amazing hosts, they were super kind and gave us some great recommendations! Comfortable room and the hot bathtub was great after being out in the cold all day. The house is just a few steps from a bus stop so even though it’s not in the city center, you can get there easily.

    It’s not my first time visiting Otaru, but Stone and Iron made me wanna visit Otaru again! I was already very excited when I booked this historical stone house. It is more amazing than what I expected! The owner Hiro is a super nice host and excellent chef. We enjoyed so much having our dinner in his lovely stone house. Food is fantastic! We had a good sleep as it’s so quiet. The stone house looks stunning in the snow!

    Plum House is a great location for Otaru. It is quiet, quaint, clean, and very well equipped. The garden is sumptuous, and the staff available all day. At that price, I don;t think there is anything better. I strongly recommend!

    Quiet house, close to the city centre and the train station (Minami-Otaru). There're also bus stops and nice restaurants/ cafés in the vicinity. I stayed for three nights and never saw the host, but communication was easy.
