Hotels near Onishi Ranch in Nakashibetsu

Stayed 2 nights. The ryokan experience starts with being met in the car park, bags whisked away, shoes off at the entrance and slippers provided. Then an orientation with a very nice Vietnamese lady, one of the few members of staff who spoke English. We were given a detailed explanation of how to use the two different onsen, and lots of other info that you really need, because this is an experience like no other. The rooms are beautiful ( ours looked onto the stream), the (long and many) corridors are decorated with beautiful art and ikebana, and there are lots of drinks dispensers everywhere - the corn soup is delicious. The food was some of the finest we had anywhere during our 4 weeks travelling in Japan (including a couple of Michelin- starred restaurants), presented exquisitely, and wonderfully flavoured - a true feast over several courses and a couple of hours. Breakfast buffet equally memorable. We only went here to see the Blakiston's Fish owl, so the whole experience was a wonderful surprise - if you've seen the Studio Gibli film ”Spirited Away” you will get a sense of what it was like. And we were the only westerners here, which was great, and only added to the sense of being on a different world. On that note, if you're an uptight westerner who doesn't like getting naked in front of strangers, you might struggle here - there are no showers or washing facilities in the rooms ( apart from a basin), only those in the onsen themselves. I don't think we would have chosen to go if we had understood this beforehand, but I'm SO glad we did go.

I chose this hotel because there is a large communal bath. I went to the bathroom thinking that there would be no small children after 22:00, but I had a child about ２ with my mother. The admission time is not fixed, so although I am a little disappointed, when I wash my body first, my child is making a loud noise. The content will be long, so it will be folded, but depending on the mother's response, it was a content that did not have to make a loud voice. Next, the child said ”pee”. There was a toilet right after leaving the bathroom, but my mother made it on the spot. Children (girls) urinate standing in the washroom, not toward the drain or corner (of course it's still out). My mother is showering toward it. Although there was a distance, the direction is facing me! I was stunned and wanted to yell, but I put up with it because I thought my child should not be traumatized. I urinate in my standing state, shower there, and scatter to what extent? I gave up because I had to pass by the site to go to the open-air bath I was looking forward to. Even if there are other guests, there are adults who are okay with this. No matter how clean the hotel is, it is irresistible because it is dirty by such guests. The other is an event at the breakfast buffet. It was just after the store opened, but it was quite lined up. A man dropped a small tong for miso soup ingredients (wakame?). I picked it up immediately and was looking for a staff member, but there was no staff member, and I put the tongs next to the ingredients. And when I got to my seat, I didn't go looking for the staff, but I started eating. I think some people were watching, but no one said anything. I think there were about 10 people in the meantime, but in my turn, the tongs were put in the ingredients and used. Due to the expansion of the corona, this is the situation where I am very careful about hygiene. In this case, I think it's a problem that the staff who can be called immediately were not in the dining room. It was a beautiful hotel, the room was large, and there was no problem with the customer service, but if you see people with such bad manners in just one night and two days, the impression of the hotel will be bad.

The A-Building twin was 26 ㎡ and was spacious and clean, and the bed was about a semi-double width and had a wide bus. The hot springs are hot and a little oily and lukewarm, and there are many types such as sauna, cold bath, bubble bath, and sleeping bath, but there is no open-air bath. My hair was squeaking because it was body soap and conditioner in shampoo. There are no skin care supplies or cleansing in the changing room, so you need to bring it with you. Even though it was Saturday as an intermediate point for sightseeing in Abashiri and Shiretoko, I stayed cheaply without meals and the cospa was the best.

It takes 15 minutes for the bus to get off and there is a highway slope. The room was clean and the spa was very comfortable. Public facilities are good. Because I forgot my braces in the bathroom, the waiter took it away when I collected the garbage. After the loss was made, all the waiters helped me to turn over the garbage bags and squatted on the floor one by one, especially moved. The uncle at the front desk is not very English but very enthusiastic and will use translation software.

All cottages are villa style and separated. The outside bathes have adhered to each guest room.

The room we were in was huge - 2 big beds and a lounge, a huge bath and wet room. Lots of toiletries provided in the bathroom too. The heating needed to be on to 26 or 27 degrees as there was a cold draft coming from under the door and also from the cold windows. This kept the room about 22 degrees we thought. The food was dreadful and made 100 times worse as I am vegetarian... Tasteless vegetables boiled to death with very little protein offered. Breakfast was even worse and one morning I was left to have cabbage and chips as that was all there was that was vegetarian... No bread of breakfast cereal anywhere in sight. Thankfully there is a supermarket close by. It seems quite common in rural Japan to not cater for vegetarians.... so beware...

When we arrived hotel staff asked whether our trip is a celebration for some occasion? When we told him is a graduation celebration, they gave us 4 glasses of complimentary wine. What a great surprise. They also have nice photo gallery displaying Hokkaido native animals photos around the lobby. We had a super pleasant stayed here.
