The indoor onsen was too small and the outdoor onsen water is too hot and the bathing facilities basic. But the food and service were excellent. We drove so it is not a problem but for those who don't, it will be inconvenient

Convenient location if you have a car, yet quiet surroundings. Interesting in-house dining experience (DIY tempura). Nice and clean room with seaview.

Nice small hotel with great ocean views. Friendly staffs with great service. Was a little disappointed about dinner. I was hoping to get some great seafood dishes since its location. Otherwise, was a great overnight stay.

This hotel was amazing! It exceeded all expectations. We arrived around 5:30pm and had dinner prepared for us at 6pm, which was a delicious mix of fresh sashimi and tempura. We were then able to book the private outdoor onsen which was truly wonderful and luxurious under the stars. Our hosts were warm, friendly and professional and clearly passionate about delivering an exceptional stay for all their guests. The location itself was spectacular! The hotel looked out onto the ocean and we had an incredible view from our room. I cannot rate this hotel high enough, 10/10 I will definitely be staying here again!

Our Japanese style room was clean, spacious, and quiet. It had a nice ocean view. Breakfast and half board were delicious, very eye-pleasing. the free private onsen (for this onsen, you need to sign up in advance) and free public onsen were great. The host/staff were friendly and helpful. They helped us book sightseeing boat cruise and sightseeing bus tour. We loved our stay here so much that we were sad to leave after 3 days.

Excellent family run ryokan/hotel. For non Japanese speakers this presents more of a challenge overcome by going to the mega hotel down the road. Otherwise the onsen is enough and the traditional Japanese meal is off the charts.

This family run elegant hotel is the best, the staff and owners are friendly and warm-hearted, the hotel decoration is unique and elegant, very clean, the food is delicious and fresh. The location is about 10-15 minutes from the bus terminal but they can pick you up for free. All rooms are facing the ocean. The shampoo and body wash is Pola brand. My only tiny complaint is the Onsen water temperature is a bit high that you need to slowly get into the water. I will come back if I visit Shiretoko otoro next time. Btw, there are staffs who can speak English and chinese.

Hotel Kifu Club has a very homely feel. The staff members were very attentive and friendly. My wife and I stayed for 2 nights and each dinner and breakfast was different from the previous day, and the food was truly local and delicious. The room had a fantastic view of the sea! To top it all off, the private onsen is a must-try, but make sure you book early because there are only 2 private onsen.

Firstly let's get the personal recommendation out of the way, if I can come back to shiretoko again I will stay here. Secondly two important things to note, firstly there is NO COLLECTION from the local train station (shiretoko-shari) this is a 40min bus journey to Utoro Onsen (which they will collect you from). Also despite being advertised on hotels.com as including breakfast only, it actually included breakfast AND dinner. All food served was of a superb standard, the seafood in particular is so fresh and included delicacies such as hairy crab and kinki fish, all ingredients were local and prepared in house. Both breakfast and dinner had approx 10 courses which were different each night, I advise if you have allergies to let the staff know in advance. The owners don't have much English but the staff speak very good English and are wonderfully helpful and the whole establishment feels welcoming and homely. There are both public Onsen and private onsen, the private onsen is outdoors and if you are as fortunate as i was then you get a really good view of the stars in the night sky, lots of shooting stars and satellites seen overhead. The room are Ryokan style with futons which I found comfortable and are kept very clean. If you arnt visiting shiretoko to hike or see the local wildlife you may struggle for things to do. Honestly of all the places I have stayed in two decades of travelling this has been my favourite, i do not say so lightly, it was a true pleasure to stay.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent meals offering much variety. We stayed for four nights and dinner was always different. Clean and comfortable rooms. Very nice inside Onsen and the option to book a private outside Onsen outside was a fantastic plus.

This is a fantastic little family run hotel. We enjoyed every minute we stayed here. Breakfast was amazing, rooms were spotless. Wonderful views over the sea particularly at sunset. Dinner was the nicest we have had in Japan. Nice private outdoor onsen which can be booked or there is a public onsen too. This was really a wonderful traditional japanese experience. On site parking was a bonus as we drove. Very close to Shiretoko National Park. Would recommend a stay here. Staff were very helpful and kind

Simple comfortable tatami room with great ocean views. The staff were friendly and provided great service. We stayed for 3 nights and the breakfast and dinner served were different each day and the food were plenty and delicious. The private outdoor hot spring that we could use for an hour each day was great value for money.
