Warm and welcoming guest houses are ideal for travellers who prefer unfussy accommodation with a personal touch. They are usually family-run, and your host will provide local recommendations and optional meals. Often cheaper than regular hotels, guest houses can also feature a cosy living room and a garden.
It was a very beautiful home. The hosts/staff were warm and attentive to our needs. Interior decor was cosy and comfortable, and place was very well maintained. It was the highlight of our stay and the owner and his wife, together with their cats made us felt welcomed and even prepared some information sheets on suggestions for our onward travels. It was truly a highlight of our trip here😊
The hostel is very spacious, and not too busy. I loved the coffee making space, and the kitchen was very well equipped. The laundry machines and dryers were very good! And most importantly, the hostel staff were incredibly welcoming and super helpful, from storing our luggage to booking a taxi for us on our check-out day. Would love to stay here again.
GPS lead us to another Oyado Kinkiyu which is older. Oyado Kinkiyu Annex Suikazura (exterior newly renovated) is further in along the road. The rooms are a little old but big and clean. The staff is unable to communicate in English but she provided us a stack of translated instructions and notes which was very helpful. The road is quiet ( I think it is off peak) with only 2-3 eateries & 1 gift shop are opened. However we still had a good time!
This is a cozy guesthouse with shared bathroom. The host is a nice guy that try his best to introduce us the nearby place to visit despite he speaks very little English. Kotan onsen is just 5 mins drive away and is a nice place to stop by to see the swan and lake.
Taka and Aki were great hosts, made us feel extremely welcome and had loads of great advice for the best things to see and do in both the local area and other parts of Hokkaido. The dinners and breakfasts were lovely with a wide variety of freshly prepared food - as they are served at one large counter table it is a great opportunity to meet other travellers and share travel tips and a few drinks :)
