Book a hotel near Lake Poroto, Shiraoi

"Huge Ryokan with comfortable and spacious room. The highlight is the public bath which has 10+ different indoor and outdoor hot tubs with different minerals. Absolutely outstanding. WiFi was fine and stay was good. Didn’t take their meal plan because I felt it was too expensive. Note that the small town has limited restaurant options - most were closed at night in November. Ended up getting dinner at the 7-11 and drinks at the local alcohol shop which had a really nice selection of Hokkaido sake, wine and beer. But the reason to be there is for the great onsen"

"It was a big hotel and there were large groups, but the hotels managed well. The car park was automatic and there was staff guiding you. The buffet was busy but food was sufficient. The quality was better than expected and we even had crab legs included. I didn't expect as I saw somewhere mentioned it was withdrawed. The room was spacious. The onsen was exceptional with plenty of varieties."

"Good size and comfortable room with a wide breakfast and dinner spread"

"The cuisine was outstanding as was the view. The only slight would be the private onsen on our balcony was wooden and had a very slimy feel to our feet upon getting in. "

"Amazibg onsen and private bath in room with largw windows and pond& lake views. Very private withbexcellent meals."

"If you're taking the NA bus, the bus stops about 1 min walking distance to the hotel. Convenient and excellent food. Enjoyed my stay there and will definitely return! "
