Cheap Hotels in Kushiro City

"Free drinks at reception was great but no water was supply in the room. Was told either tap water or got to buy. Not sure why they provide free drinks downstairs but not water in the room . The epsom salt for bath was great. Parking need to pay which was quite disappointing especially in these area"

"I had an enjoyable stay at Akan Yuku no Sato Tsuruga. The hotel offers a relaxing atmosphere and is a wonderful place to experience the beauty of Lake Akan. The service was excellent throughout my stay. The staff were warm, attentive, and professional, always greeting guests with a smile and making every interaction pleasant. Their hospitality really enhanced the overall experience. The onsen facilities were one of the highlights of the hotel. They are spacious, beautifully designed, and have a luxurious feel, offering a great variety of indoor and outdoor baths. The only minor drawback was that the top-floor outdoor bath did not appear to be as clean as the other baths. Overall, the onsen experience was still great. The room was a little on the compact side, but it was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. Overall, I had a great stay and Akan Yuku no Sato Tsuruga is a great choice in Lake Akan."

"February 2026, Hokkaido – The Life I've Always Dreamed Of in Eastern Hokkaido! It's been six years since my last visit to Hokkaido, and I'm finally back in my favorite place, embarking on a long-awaited journey to Eastern Hokkaido! On the first day, we decided to head straight to Kushiro and check into the Kushiro Prince Hotel for convenience with our后续 itinerary. It was about a 10-minute walk from JR Kushiro Station to the hotel with our luggage. The main issue was the heavy snow and ice on the roads. We weren't wearing ice cleats, so we had to walk very carefully. The Kushiro Prince Hotel clearly has an older, traditional style, and the facilities are quite dated. Check-in was quick, and there wasn't much interaction with the front desk, perhaps due to a language barrier? However, they did try their best to answer any questions we had. We had a standard twin room; it wasn't large, but big enough for two large suitcases. There was no separate wet and dry area in the bathroom, likely due to space constraints. I'm not sure why there was no complimentary bottled water. The hotel's main advantage is its convenient location. The Akan Bus stop is right outside the hotel to the right. Everyone was lining up early. We checked out about 10 minutes beforehand, and since we didn't want to wait outside in the cold, we ended up at the back of the line. Kushiro is the starting point of this Eastern Hokkaido trip. Our packed itinerary is about to begin, and I'm a little excited and a little nervous!"

"The hotel is conveniently located across from the JR station. There is a coin laundry on the premises, but the breakfast selection is limited."

"The staff were warm, friendly, and welcoming throughout our stay. The breakfast was absolutely amazing, with a wide variety of delicious options—it was definitely one of the highlights of our trip! The accommodation was spotless, and the bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a great night's sleep. The hotel is conveniently located near a shopping mall and plenty of eateries, making it easy to find food and do some shopping. Although parking is available for a fee, it was convenient and easy to access. Overall, I absolutely loved this hotel and would happily stay here again on my next visit!"

"The hotel boasts an excellent location. In the evenings, there are plenty of restaurants in the vicinity. After dinner, it's a pleasant walk from the hotel to Nusamai Bridge for a stroll, and Fisherman's Wharf is just about a 10-minute walk from there. Guests can then return to the hotel to relax in the hot springs. The rooms are also very comfortable. While the breakfast spread at the hotel wasn't extensive, the quality was good. If I ever visit Kushiro again, I would definitely choose this hotel."

"Facilities: The rooftop onsen area has three pools with brand-new facilities. It's very relaxing to soak in them, and after a bath, you can use the massage chairs or read manga. In the mornings, you can enjoy unlimited Yakult, and in the evenings, there are four kinds of ice cream available for free. Cleanliness: The room was spotless. The mini-fridge had three complimentary bottles of mineral water, three apples, and pudding. The room was cleaned very thoroughly. Ambiance: The hotel feels completely new. Coming here after checking out of the Prince Hotel felt like traveling from the millennium to the new century, haha. Service: Every evening at 9:30 PM, the hotel offers free all-you-can-eat ramen. It has the local specialty soy sauce broth, and honestly, it tastes almost identical to the famous Uoichi ramen we paid for. Self-check-in and check-out are very convenient. The hotel breakfast also includes Kushiro Robatayaki and self-made leftover rice, so you don't need to spend money eating out. It's excellent value for money. Location: The location is also fantastic, directly opposite the MOO shopping mall, just a five-minute walk. It's very convenient for taking the 'White Bus' and the airport shuttle."

"The hotel's location is excellent; it's a two-minute walk straight ahead after turning left from the JR station. There's a bus stop and a sightseeing bus pick-up point right outside the entrance. It's also just over a ten-minute walk to Nusamai Bridge. The hotel breakfast is delicious, and there are complimentary alcoholic beverages and soft drinks on the first floor in the evenings. They also offer free hot springs. The only downside is the questionable cleanliness, which needs improvement."

"We booked this hotel for its proximity to the Kushiro train station and bus station (these were just opposite the hotel) which saved us the walking in snowy conditions. The triple room we booked was surprisingly bigger than I would imagine for a typical Japanese hotel. We tried the hotel breakfast and it was good for value and have a spread of food choices. The staff were friendly and despite of language barrier, we managed to be able to request for assistance. I would like to thank Ryoyo for his help in checking for alternative bus to Sapporo due to train suspension and he further helped to contact our Sapporo hotel to inform that we will arrive later due to unforeseen train suspension. As per other reviews about the attitude of the hotel staff, I personally feel that they are really helpful but might appear rude to foreigners as they are not good at expressing themselves. The hotel has a manga corner and amenities shelf which you can grab special hair amenities and other types of pillows. There is also free washing machine which my husband used it daily to wash his clothes, free onsen and coffee. Overall, this hotel has great amenities and facilities. The famous tourist attractions were within walking distance from the hotel (MOO/ EGG/ Nusamai Bridge about 15-20mins walk)."

"Stayed at The Forest Akan Tsuruga Resort for three nights during our visit to Lake Akan. The location is excellent, within easy walking distance of the lakeside, Ainu Kotan, visitor centre, restaurants, Kamuy Lumina, and many of the area's attractions. It made exploring Lake Akan very convenient without needing transportation. The hotel itself has a warm, cozy atmosphere that blends nicely with the surrounding nature. Breakfast was especially enjoyable, with local favourites such as sweet shrimp sashimi and natto. While our initial room was not quite ideal for our personal preferences, the staff were helpful in assisting us with a room change, and we ended up in a room that suited us much better. Their assistance was greatly appreciated. One small observation is that during our three-night stay, the buffet menu remained largely the same each day. While the food was good, we found ourselves becoming a little repetitive by the second and third day. Guests staying for a longer period may appreciate a bit more variation in the menu. The hotel also offers a public bath, although we did not use it during our stay, so I am unable to provide any comments or review on that facility. One thing worth noting is that the hot spring bathing tax is still charged as part of the stay, regardless of whether guests choose to use the public bath facilities. Another plus is the coin-operated laundry facilities, which are very useful for travellers staying several days or moving between destinations. What I enjoyed most was using the hotel as a base to experience Lake Akan. During our stay we explored the forests, visited Ainu Kotan, walked the Kamuy Lumina trail, took the sightseeing cruise, visited the Marimo Exhibition and Observation Center, spotted deer and foxes, and enjoyed beautiful lake views. On our final evening, the weather was perfect. We watched the sunset over Lake Akan and later enjoyed a sky full of stars. It was a memorable way to end our stay. Overall, The Forest Akan Tsuruga Resort is a comfortable and convenient base for exploring Lake Akan and the surrounding area. Thank you for a pleasant stay."
