Independent Kamitoku hotels

"Proper traditional Japanese stay. However check-in isn’t straight forward you have to message the owner 2 days prior which sometimes can be a nuisance."

"Great town Very friendly Excellent place to stay"

"Perfect stay for visitors seeking a peaceful adventure. "

"Room spotless "

"Easy check-in, nice location. "

"It’s a fine business hotel, but they do need better pillows"

"This business hotel makes a reasonable base for exploring the Shiretoko National Park, given that options in Utoro are very limited. It is functional and a bit charmless, though facilities are all ok. The interior could do with renovating, as it all looks dark and gloomy. The mattresses were rather hard and the breakfast buffet wasn't up to the standard of other hotels we've stayed in - no fresh fruit, margarine instead of butter, unpleasant coffee (there's a better quality in the machine in reception). Staff were all pleasant enough."

"The hotel was typical rural Japanese, the showers are shared in the onsen area (no en suite). Breakfast was served to you but was really typical Japanese (don't expect western food here)."
