Otaru Retreat Kuramure

There are 19 guest rooms, each with its own distinctive style, and every room features a natural Onsen bath. The sodium-calcium chloride spring is kept at a comfortable temperature at all times, allowing you to enjoy a relaxing soak whenever you like. Surrounded by the rustle of trees and the gentle murmur of the river beyond your window, everyday time slowly melts away.

Dinner at Kuragura is a kaiseki course inspired by the theme of “fermentation,” pairing seasonal ingredients from Hokkaido’s sea and land with a variety of fermentation techniques. In the private dining room “shōin,” enjoy dishes that showcase the chef’s delicate skill and sensibility, beginning with a fermented hassun platter that changes its character with each season. For breakfast, we offer a gentle Japanese set meal to help you start your day in calm comfort.
