“Truly amazing stay”

Amazing 106 years old and very convenient location. Hiro san is very nice.

“Comfortable and cosy”

Beds were very comfortable and the living space upstairs was very spacious for our group of 8 people

Restaurant downstairs was wonderful, and there is loads of space

“Fantastic location and accomodation in Otaru! Thanks Hiro, we hope to return soon!”

Our family and friends (3 adults, 3 teenagers) stayed here for a week. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and Hiro was an amazing host. The location was fantastic, walking distance to Otaru station and close to the canal. The apartment was very clean and the kitchen and living area large and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped, and being able to order delicious food from Hiro's restaurant on the ground floor was amazing. Just need to be aware that the stairs to 2nd floor bedrooms and living areas on 3rd floor are a bit steep. We loved this apartment and would definitely stay here again. Thanks Hiro!

“Perfect stay in Otaru”

Our stay in Otaru was fantastic! The host was incredibly welcoming and the space itself was perfect for our group. It was spacious and comfortable, providing ample room for everyone. The location was also ideal, putting us within easy reach of all the must-see attractions Otaru has to offer.

The house of stone and iron was a magical experience for us. It is unique and a destination in itself. You can walk from Otaru station and it is near the canal. The restaurant downstairs is fantastic and, as they were fully booked they brought food to our room as if it was an extension of the restaurant. They brought three rounds of drinks up the steep stairs for us! The sleeping situation was perfect for our group. The bunks were wonderful. We love to visit again.

“Great place for a group or family in the heart of Otaru. I'd go there again.”

Great location in the heart of Otaru. Building has awesome character and comfortably fitted our group of 8. Hiro-san was very friendly and helpful. Food in the restaurant was delicious. Access to great skiing at 3 resorts within an hour's drive.

“An historic, unique building that has been lovingly restored to offer a warm comfortable place to stay near the heart of”

this unique building offered our family of 5 a warm and interesting place to stay in the heart of Otaru. Hiro and team were welcoming and their restaurant was a lovely touch to have just downstairs.

Bed is capsule, yet still quite comfortable. I love the penthouse. The restaurant on first floor is the killer! Best western food I have ever tasted in Japan. Way above my expectations yet the price was shockingly reasonable! One of the best experiencea in this trip.

The beds are so comfy😍 There’s a restaurant (ran by the host) just on the first floor, which is a convenient option if you’re craving for a delicious dinner! The host would also offer recommendations for local restaurants and ice cream shops.

“Very nice owner and help us carry luggage to 2nd floor and fist day arriving at 7pm can direct order dinner from restaur”

Same like home

“An awesome stay in the stone house”

It’s not my first time visiting Otaru, but Stone and Iron made me wanna visit Otaru again! I was already very excited when I booked this historical stone house. It is more amazing than what I expected! The owner Hiro is a super nice host and excellent chef. We enjoyed so much having our dinner in his lovely stone house. Food is fantastic! We had a good sleep as it’s so quiet. The stone house looks stunning in the snow!

“Cozy, comfortable, and unique!”

Charming! Such a unique and cozy place to stay. An easy walk from the train station and a short walk to the canal, museum, and tourist shops. The owner was lovely and friendly and helped us make last minute skiing plans. The food from the restaurant downstairs was delicious. Our family of five loved it.

This is really a nice place for staying in OTARU, stone house with a long history, especially the living room, fantastic !!

A historic building with great character. The owner of the homestay has a restaurant on the first floor and can provide timely assistance. There is a double room and a 6-person room on the 2nd floor. The living room and kitchen are on the third floor. The rooms are comfortable and the stairs are steep, recommended for younger groups.

The location is excellent, and walking distance to the canal. The rooms are great and there is even an outdoor sitting area.

“Wonderful experience.”

Location is very convinient. House owner is very friendly and speaks English very nicely.
