A Hotel where you can fully enjoy Otaru, one of Hokkaido’s most popular sightseeing areas. On the top floor of the main building, you’ll find a large public bath with natural Onsen water—rare even within the city. After soaking in the high-quality waters and warming up at your leisure, unwind in the lounge furnished with premium chairs handcrafted by artisans from Asahikawa, known as a “city of furniture.” Enjoy a blissful moment while looking out over the Otaru Canal and its nostalgic streetscape. An 8-minute walk from JR Otaru Station. This Hotel features an impressive European-style exterior that blends beautifully with the charming townscape along the canal. Choose from a variety of twin Rooms, including Canal Twin Rooms overlooking the waterway, as well as spacious options such as Deluxe Twin and Deluxe King Rooms. Each Room offers an elegant atmosphere where open, light-filled spaces with large windows are complemented by antique furniture imported from London. Step outside and take a leisurely stroll along the canal to Sakaimachi Street, lined with historic stone buildings. Why not enjoy a sense of stepping back in time while searching for souvenirs such as glassware and music boxes? This is a Hotel where you can relax comfortably while taking in Otaru Canal’s beautiful scenery up close.

Perched 60 meters above sea level on the heights of Hiraiso Cape, surrounded by Ishikari Bay, you can take in sweeping views of the endless blue sea and sky, with a full panorama of Otaru Bay and downtown Otaru spread out below. Ginrinso, a historic herring mansion and ryotei-style Accommodation with Onsen, is regarded as a representative example of fishery architecture. It was originally built as the residence of a major fishing magnate in Yoichi, once famed at the base of the Shakotan Peninsula as a prosperous herring fishing ground. Its grand yet elegant presence has only grown more dignified over more than 140 years since its founding, and it is now counted among “Hokkaido’s 100 Cultural Properties.” While preserving its traditional exterior and furnishings as faithfully as possible, we have enhanced our modern Facilities to pursue even greater comfort and functionality. In the rear garden overlooking the Sea of Japan, we have newly added an open-air rock bath rich in refined charm; reborn under the name “Hiraiso Onsen,” we begin anew as one of Otaru’s newest tourist attractions.
