Smile Hotel Kushiro

Both the station and Fisherman’s Wharf are within walking distance, and we had no trouble finding places to eat around the Hotel.The welcome drink lounge on the first floor also offered sake, so we could enjoy local Kushiro brews.Since I have a skin allergy, I was glad they provided POLA shampoo and conditioner that I could use.After checkout, they kindly let us keep our car parked until the Norokko Train arrived at Kushiro Station at 13:05, so we could go out without worry.The staff were also very friendly and helpful.

The Hotel staff were friendly and welcoming with warm smiles, and I had a very comfortable stay.The drink bar was a nice touch, but it was disappointing that there weren’t many soup options left at night.I was also happy to have the bath additive service.The Room was clean, but the lighting was too dim. There was a light around the foldable mirror, so I used that as well, but it was still dark and made it difficult to read a guidebook or even use my smartphone.
