20 Japanese Guest Houses (Minshuku) in Hokkaido

The owner, a mountain guide, handcrafted this special space from scratch. The motto is "an urban mountain hut" and "turning an ordinary day into the best day possible." The lodge operates quietly away from the downtown area. The first floor is a restaurant and bar area, which can be used as a place to exchange information with other guests and local regulars. All the wood used for the tables is cut from a single tree, creating a uniform and warm space. The restaurant is open from 6pm until midnight, with last food orders at 12am and last drink orders at 1:30pm. Outside of opening hours, the lodge is open to guests.

This guesthouse was renovated from a traditional Japanese house that is over 100 years old. There are three rooms, two dormitory rooms and one private room, and can accommodate up to 11 people. The shared space has a mini kitchen (with rice cooker) where you can make simple meals. There is also a coworking space on the second floor for those who work on computers. Recommended for long-term stays. Please feel free to use it. Next door is a cafe that was renovated from a closed public bath, and sells lunch, sweets, and drinks made with ingredients from Yakumo. Eating in the bathtub is sure to be a strange sensation you have never experienced before.
