Charming traditional accommodation in Kushiro”

Wakatake Ryokan is one of the few traditional Japanese-style accommodations in the easy-going and friendly seaside town of Kushiro. We were delighted to find this option on a quiet street within an easy 10-minute walk of the station (via the underpass between the train and bus terminals), although some business travelers or western tourists uncomfortable with ryokans or guest houses (minshuku) might opt for one of the city's high-rise hotels. Wakatake Ryokan's owners are carrying on a family business started 70 years ago, and the hostess' hospitality and attention to detail reflects many decades of experience welcoming guests from Japan and abroad. Sleeping rooms are simple but comfortable and fully equipped, with shared WC down the hall and a shared bathroom / shower on the main floor. We we were able to access these without delay at all times even though most of the rooms were occupied. The hostess speaks some English and has English-language printed materials on hand highlighting attractions in and around Kushiro as well local restaurants within reasonable walking distance. Guests may use the on-site washing machine and dryer for a modest price to catch up on laundry, which came in handy as we were near the end of our three weeks in Japan. The very reasonable standard room rate includes a western-style breakfast, and for an additional fee, a Japanese breakfast is available - but we did not have an opportunity to sample this.

Cheap and simple room, friendly owner, close to JR”

Budget, traditional ryokan style, welcoming owner

This is a family run ryokan so - as you should expect - the rooms are traditional Japanese tatami floors and equipped with roll-down futons. Shower and toilet areas are shared (with privacy). The toilets are Japanese style, though as with other areas of the ryokan the owner has labelled English instructions to things for ease of use for foreigners. The owner was very welcoming and friendly and she speaks English better than our basic Japanese. The ryokan is north of town so actually out of the main centre but it is still only 10 mins walk to the JR train station. External signage was only in Japanese.

Friendly Ryokan owner”

Friendly owner, restaurant nearby and convenient location

The ryokan was small and it does not come with attached bathroom. Nevertheless, we were really touched by the hospitality of the owner, who woke up early to prepare breakfast for us even though we didn't book for it. It seems more like lodging in a relative's accommodation. It was an enjoyable stay even though it was a temporary stay for a night.

An amazing place to stay!”

The guesthouse is located close to the JR station, about 20mins by walk. The owner was extremely nice and she cooked the best breakfast! (Better than those by my mother :))) She also helped a lot in arranging my tours. The house was very clean and I loved the Japanese style room so much. I’ll definitely come back here.

Yoko, the kind lady who runs the place was very kind. Although I didn't book the room without breakfast, she nevertheless prepared a cheese toast & salad & coffee foc. She offered use of her umbrella on a rainy morning. Take the underpass between the train & bus stations, and her place is approximately 400m away, 15-20 minutes steady walk. The Agoda map was accurate.
