“Perfect relaxing getaway in a cozy setting”

I really enjoyed my stay at this pension. It's very clean and charming. The heating and the facilities are great. It's a modern with central heating. It's an ideal location to unwind, relax, and spend quiet time in the evenings after skiing. Location: It's located between the Furano and Kitanomine sides (just 5 mins away), and the owner can offer drop/pick up from either location. In that sense, I found it convenient. If you need to go into town, taxis are available tho you may need to pay a pick-up fee. Taxis are available from town to drop you off. However, it's best if you have your own car. Furano itself is a very small town with nothing much to do in winter. Most of the restaurants and bars open in the evenings during winter to cater to the ski crowd. I stayed mainly for skiing, so I was content to just rest after a long day of skiing. Food: The owner caters for breakfast and dinner. The home-cooked meals are delicious and prepared with a lot of care. Furano town caters more towards evenings/dinner. I mostly had all dinners at the pension. The best thing about staying here is Naoko-san, the owner who looks after everyone with care and concern. If there's anything you need you can just ask her and she will try her best to accommodate.

You can rest easy knowing you are in good hands here. Naoko is an excellent hostess. She picked us up from the station and gave us a lift to and from the ski slope. She prepared dinner for us on short notice (you should message a day ahead at least) and we also enjoyed her breakfasts. Everything is homemade from local produce where possible. Beds are fine, bath was nice.

“Naoko-san bakes the best quiche - we didn’t have chance to tell her as we ordered and it was ready on the date we checke”

Very nice environment just like a real home. Comfortable beds and quiet location. For a family of four we had 2 rooms next to each other and while there were other guests during our stay we always felt it was never too crowded. I really enjoy the pace at breakfast, and the cute beautiful cutlery that Naoko-san uses - a change for every meal!

The food was excellent. The host was very friendly and helpful.

“Cozy and peaceful”

An incredibly peaceful and cozy stay. Naoko was a warm and hospitable host - providing transport to and from the slopes and discounted lift tickets. Her home cooked breakfasts and dinners were a highlight of each day!

“Awesome experience and highly recommend!”

Amazing homely feel about the place, the hosts are beautiful people and can organise everything you need. Lift passes, breakfast, dinner, massages, board wax nothing was too much to ask! Each morning out car was cleaned of snow and when we left the hosts waved goodbye from the street! If you want a loving authentic experience this place was amazing!

You have to pay about 1,500 yen for the breakfast but it's worth it. The menu changes every day and you can add coffee / tea. The bathroom facilities are shared but it's always well maintained.

“Relaxing and very familiary.”

Peaceful and relxing atmosphere, very friendly and helpful owners. Dinners were excellent.

“Beautiful ski experience in Furano”

This was a delightful stay! The owners have been extremely helpful (explaining how to book ski lessons for the kids in advance, ski passes...dropping us off in the morning and picking us up from the ski area) and welcoming (letting the kids have a try at the piano). This has given us the opportunity to stay in a relaxing and quiet place, out of the hustle and bustle, beautifully decorated and appointed, with some relaxing music & a magnificent view of the snow on trees and houses outside, while making the most of skiing opportunities. The food offered by Naoko was delicious and amongst the best we have had in 3 weeks. For us this meant a careful balance between Japanese to please the parents and comforting for the kids. It all felt very homely. Some have commented that quantities are sometimes small - we have always had more than enough, were offered extras and felt comfortable asking more if needed. We have also found that the price / quality ratio of the food in comparison to hotels was second to none: freshly cooked, beautiful products. I have to admit that I was initially a bit worried to stay 5 minutes car ride away from the ski slopes with the children and we stayed a couple of days closer the first few nights just to get settled. But looking back, I would stay at Ituka every night. We have loved staying there and would recommend to anyone who like some respite after a long day of skiing.

“Warm and welcoming small guesthouse with delicious meals”

The guesthouse owners Naokosan and Yukiosan make staying at this guesthouse a special experience. The welcome, the meals, the transfers and the kindness were all very much appreciated. Our visit felt personalised, unlike in a hotel. We slept very well. It was such a blessing to be able to come back after skiing and completely relax without having to hunt for a restaurant for a family of five.

Naoko San and family are exceptionally kind, our family of 6 really appreciate the hospitality. They make the whole place feel like home. Breakfast and dinner are very good with home cook style. Definitely value for money. The view from room are exceptional for winter time. Overall, we have a good 2 nights stay.

“Great. Furano is good to have a hired car at.”

Very homely, helpful & genuinely friendly.

“A wonderful family home to spend some time in Furano. Everything was perfect. The food was amazing.”

Great hosts, warm and welcoming.

"Fantastic home stay experience! Warm hospitality, cozy rooms, and delicious homemade breakfast. The hosts went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. Highly recommended!"

“Great rooms with forest views .Traditional home stay .Very relaxing and peaceful location.”

Fantastic host

“Naoko looked after us exceptionally well exceeding all our expectations for our stay.”

The food was a delight to eat. Homemade bread and jam was a real treat. We feel we had authentic Japanese food made with care and respect. The breakfast Naoko prepared was like a fine dining experience. The photos of Naoko's home do not do justice to the real life experience. Her home is comfortable, clean and has a beautiful outlook.

“Very cute B&B stay with an amazing host!”

The host, Naoko-san is amazing. With a very reasonable fee, she does everything (shuttle services to the train station, shuttle to the slopes, breakfast, dinner). Her cooking is amazing btw, 0 need to go to a restaurant. The bed itself is a comfy and the house is really cutely decorated.

Owners are very nice, good food and great environment, I really like the dining room window with snowing outside, so relaxing. It's better to have a car to visit though.
