Recensioni su Kitakobushi Shiretoko Hotel & Resort

Very warm and beautiful hotel with great dinner and breakfast. Really enjoyed our time here! Highly recommended

Our third consecutive stay in Japan’s onsen scene brought us to Kitakobushi Shiretoko Hotel & Resort. Though labelled as a 3-star hotel, this resort is the very definition of an underrated masterpiece. From the moment we arrived, it became clear this experience would rival any five-star destination we’ve ever visited. Our room was a slice of paradise—spacious, serene, and offering a panoramic view of the breathtaking sea. Perfect for a moment of calm after a day of exploring. It was hard to tear ourselves away from the window, with its infinite horizon stretching beyond the blue waters. The bath experience was equally indulgent, with Dyson and Refa hairdryers in the public bath area. The soap and shampoo provided in the public baths? Luxurious, premium products that they also retail on-site. A small but significant touch that elevates this from your average onsen. Where do I even begin with the buffet? It was nothing short of culinary theatre. Imagine live cooking stations serving up dishes with the flair of a fine dining restaurant. From sashimi so fresh, it redefined how I think about lean tuna—the texture was almost reminiscent of beef!—to the incredibly generous portions of salmon roe. Each dish was top-tier, but the dessert station truly took my breath away. A unique pumpkin and sweet potato creation was the surprise highlight, and I couldn’t help but indulge in multiple helpings of the organic apple, crisp and fresh like it was picked that very morning. For fitness enthusiasts, there’s even a decent gym—a rarity for many onsen hotels. Meanwhile, the 24-hour lounge provides a range of delectable snacks, all of which are sold in their store. And though the prices may seem steep, the taste makes them worth every yen. The free daily scoop of Peter Beier ice cream was simply divine. Made with Hokkaido milk, the vanilla was already a showstopper, but the pistachio took the experience to another level. After this, it was impossible not to purchase their chocolate truffles—pricey, but easily worth the splurge. The experience extends outside the hotel, where an outdoor foot bath awaits with a view that will make you feel like you’ve entered another world. As long as the weather cooperates, this is an experience not to be missed. In short, Kitakobushi Shiretoko Hotel & Resort might officially be a 3-star, but in our hearts, it’s a five-star experience through and through. A perfect blend of luxury, nature, and comfort, it’s an onsen resort that deserves to be on every discerning traveller’s radar.

Buffet-style dinner and breakfast are very interesting. A lot of local Japanese people choose this hotel for holiday.

I love the 24hr lounge that serves drinks and snacks Huge lobby area Loves the foot massage outdoor area Breakfast selection is excellent Room is clean and has tatami area Bed mattress is firm and clean Best hotel

Very nice ans clean hotel. Awesome breakfast. Staffs are so helpful. Room is spacious and tidy.

although the original wing had been renewed, but the sourly old folks’ smell still remain inside the room we stayed and we have to wide open the window and turned on the fan for better ventilation to eliminate the smell. by the way, the dinner was delicious and the free flowing alcohol can satisfy anyone who like to drink

Perfect location in Shari Town, where is the essential entrance to shiretoko peninsula. I had check all the hotel around and can assure Kitakobushi Shiretoko Hotel is the best in aspect of facility, service quality, onsen and culinary. It's perfect choice

Nice hotel. Good is very good. Just a bit expensive but overall satisfactory

The room is big and spacious. Good views and nice onsen and sauna view sea Okhotsk. Delicious breakfast and dinner. Executive lounge with snacks and beverage. Free gelato ice cream. Amazing hotel .

The location and facilities are excellent. However, one of the front desk male staff was difficult to communicate. The impression of hotel could be improved and substantial increased if the service at front desk could be enhanced.

Breakfast and dinner are almost the same choices of food every day, it’s a bit boring for a 3-nights stay.

Great facilities including an all inclusive lounge with beverages. The onsen is decent and rooms are big

This hotel is pretty big, there're many things you can do within the hotel. The hotel has shops, restaurants, coin laundry, and even pet care services.

Enjoyable holiday thanks to caring service.
