    “The hosts were incredibly nice. I loved our breakfast time with them and the fun conversations. Iwase is beautiful and I highly recommend spending plenty of time in the surrounding area. It is such a gem. This inn is easy to get to via Toyama...”

    “It was the classic “bed and breakfast” experience that you read about, but hardly ever have. The friendly hosts not only served a great breakfast, but were attentive to every aspect of the experience.”

Shirokuma Inn is centrally located in the heart of Iwase, next to a park, sake brewery, historic village, and a public beach with a view of the Japanese Alps, just 15 minutes walking distance. The Shirokuma Inn is a Japanese & Canadian family run business, in an old traditional style house with some modern amenities; A/C, WiFi, reserved parking. Your comfort and smiles motivate us.
We are small B&B with a fun loving spirit to welcome all our guests. Our hobbies include traveling, reading, writing, cooking and DIY.
The town of Iwase has many local attractions such as two museums, a sake brewery and also a beer brewery, a pub (sadly closing at 6:00 pm) plus a sake tasting bar (sadly closing at 5:00 pm) . There are also many fine restaurants/cuisines suitable for all palates and budgets. Most of the old town on the main street is from the late 1800's. It was one of the main shipping ports for that era. The local beach, Iwase-hama is a long, beautiful, undeveloped beach. Great for surfing and swimming or do nothing at all., but beware of the birds and your lunch.
