I loved the coziness of this place. There's a cute little beer tap room out front and you get a free welcome drink during your stay that you can redeem for a drink at the beer room. There's everything you need for a stay in Otaru here. Laundry, kitchen, hang out area. Location is great. About a 15 minute walk to the train station. A couple of minutes walk to the canal and about a 5-10 minute walk to get to the touristy heart of Otaru.

This is a tastefully decorated, exceptionally clean, comfortable place to stay in Otaru. Worked perfectly for my family of four visiting Hokkaido to ski. My wife and I had the triple room, and my boys (16 and 13) had a double room. We made our own breakfasts and sack lunches in the kitchen before heading out to ski each morning, and loved the complimentary coffee and made pour-over coffee for our thermoses. The common area was quiet and very comfortable, with an amazing jazz soundtrack going from 7am-9pm and wifi fast-enough to zoom into meetings. The hosts were flexible and exceptionally kind. The Lawson across the street is almost too easy to get to, and the COOP grocery store and public Onsen are both easy 10-minute walks away--and there are endless dining options with 15 minutes by foot (yakitori, ramen, okonomiyaki, tempura, and, of course, world-famous sushi!). Seriously, I can't recommend this place enough! We'll stay there again when we visit to ski Kiroro, Kokasai, and Teine--and maybe even Niseko, tho' we didn't make the drive that far south as the snow was too good at the closer areas.

Great place, really close to the JR and bus station. The staff was really attentive and offered really good ideas for food and sightseeing.

The staff were friendly and nice. I had the pleasure to chat with some of them during my stay. The floor was kept really clean by the staff despite it being winter (lots of snow) when I stayed. I had a very comfortable stay at this hostel. I would definitely stay here again when I'm in Otaru!

We loved our stay at Guest House Ringo, the host was great with communication and the location was terrific. The only thing that might bother some people if you happen to be there in a heatwave, is that there is only a fan, no air conditioning in the rooms. We had a good stay and would rebook next time we visit!
