Whilst this wasn't an issue for us, there is no lift at the property which could be difficult for some people - the steps entering the property are quite deep. The staff however are lovely and will help you with your luggage. You also need a car to really benefit from staying here because of the limited public transport in the area - we had a car and it worked perfectly.

The hotel staff are lovely and the whole place has a friendly feel with everything that you could need. The communal kitchen/diner has views across the bay and is it very easy to cook food there. There is tea/coffee available too. Room was lovely and spacious and we had a wonderful sea view. Very clean. The hotel was quiet and we always slept well there - only a couple of minutes drive into town too should you want a restaurant or access to the convenience stores.

It’s so peaceful and quiet, with windows looking right on to the ocean. I could hear the waves and bird calls day and night. There’s a very friendly atmosphere, with the other, and other guests. The owner collected us, and brought us back to the bus station, and went out of her way to make sure our stay was a good one.

The beds are comfy and the see view is so relaxing. We reached the hotel by foot - so we had a nice 15 mins stroll away for town.

Stairs at the entrance are really steep - especially if you are hauling a suitcase up and down them- we managed but they would be an obstacle for some people. There is a young male employee who will help you with the bags if you have issues.

Place is homely, clean and welcoming. Reasonably priced and a nice change from more fancy hotel accommodation. Lots of parking and great views of the bay. Enjoyed having access to the communal kitchen. owner is a delightful lady who went out of her way to help us with finding a guide.

Nothing, we all loved it, kids and adults.

Wonderful family owned hotel, one of the most pleasant stays of our 5 weeks in Japan. Beautiful views, spacious family room, especially as there is a vast, cosy and bright common space and kitchen. The kitchen is fully equipped, the most equipped we've ever seen (multiple excellent cutting knives, plenty of cutlery and plates, bowls, pans, etc.). The family running the hotel are smiling and welcoming and they even gave the kids a little souvenir. . The location is super convenient for visiting Shiretoko. We really felt at home there. All of this for a very reasonable price given the prices of other hotels nearby.

If i really have to pick one thing, there's no hanger in bathroom and toilet.

A nice homey hotel located beside the sea. Staffs are very friendly and helpful. No breakfast provided but free brewed coffee at the lounge any time of the day, and guests are free to use the facilities in the lounge. Nice view from the lounge and room. Big comfortable clean room. Free on premise car parking.

Driving down the slope was not that easy.

The town doesn't have that many food choice, so it was really comfortable to have a shared kitchen in the hotel which also allowed us to mingle with other guests. It was family friendly and we even saw a fox near the hotel on the way back.

I had a fantastic stay at Hotel Iruka. The location is absolutely beautiful – right by the sea, with rooms offering stunning ocean views. The hotel itself is very clean and well-maintained. My room was spacious, nicely furnished, and spotless. There’s also a large shared kitchen that’s perfect if you want to cook your own meals. Another big plus: free parking is available right in front of the hotel – super convenient! What really stood out was the kind and helpful staff. I had a car breakdown during my stay, and they went above and beyond to help me – they made phone calls and helped organize everything, which really took the stress out of the situation. I highly recommend Hotel Iruka to anyone looking for a peaceful, scenic stay by the sea with warm, supportive service.

No complaints

Location and view are ideal. The hotel is easygoing, accomodating (common room and kitchen), relatively cheap and kept very clean and orderly. It has a friendly, well-organized vibe.
