Shiraoi Hotel Guide - Lake Poroto hotels in Shiraoi, Japan.

"The amenities and breakfast were great and the kaiseki meal was amazing. Would definitely recommend staying here. The surrounding town is great and has dining options as well. "

"Staff was extremely friendly, rooms were incredible, the onsen was amazing. The food was 80% good, had a few things that didn't quite land."

"The baths are excellent. The communal places in the building are very spacious. Lovely place to relax ."

"Being short distance from the station was great. Room was comfortable and the extra pillow gave me a great night sleep. I enjoyed the free breakfast. Walking distance is short trip to donki and more food options."

"Clean room, room supplies, location, staff."

"Nice onsen, friendly staff"

"We had the most gorgeous time at this beautiful ryokan/onsen/resort. The setting is so calm and luxurious – I’ll never forget sitting in the (huge) window of our room in the evening and morning, watching the birdlife over the pond and river, with the snowy mountains in the distance. The outdoor onsen is especially spectacular in the early mornings and late nights, and we appreciated that even at 'busy' times during our stay there were only a handful of other people at most in the onsen. It was also lovely to have information for those new to onsen, so everyone felt welcome and comfortable, and a recommended 'itinerary' for a one-night stay, acknowledging that many (like us) would only have a short time here. Dinner and breakfast were both stunning in the traditional ryokan style, with lovely sake and wine on offer in the evening. The hotel is clearly able to accomodate a large number of guests but is cleverly laid out (as is the dining room) to make it feel very intimate and private for each guest. It’s such a special and calm place, and one I’ll always think of very fondly! (PS. You can access the National Ainu Museum by foot via the hotel car park, or it’s a very quick drive next door. We visited after checking out — not to be missed!)"

"Surprisingly good. I was a bit worried when reading google review, turns out this hotel became my favourite spot for the whole trip. The Onsen and food are just perfect. Onsen area is well maintained, variety of choices and clean water. Food is in room service, so you can take the time to enjoy without any distractions. Only thing is that my room is close to the elevator, but it’s quiet in general. "

"The room was very spacious and clean, but one thing I didn't enjoy was the smel of bug killer spray. I think I wasn't lucky. I'm sure the room usually doesn't smel. The food was amazing. "
