One group per day · Entire house rental
AKIYATO Otaru Dream Irifune HOME
Otaru Nostalgia Stay.
A private, entire-house rental nestled in the quiet residential neighborhood of Irifune, a port town.
A space blending the lingering charm of Showa-era architecture with the sophistication of Nordic mid-century design.
Somehow nostalgic, yet comfortable for today's sensibilities—
We offer a stay where photographs, experiences, and memories quietly accumulate.
Not Otaru as a tourist destination,
but a base to experience “Otaru as if you were living there.”
Bring the lingering echoes of your strolls through town right back to the inn,
and end your day enveloped in quiet and soft light.
Enjoy such a memorable, retro journey through time.
In a space where Showa retro meets mid-century modern,
experience moments where time seems to stand still.
The Irifune area, where port town life thrives, offers a calm environment slightly removed from tourist bustle.
With easy access to Otaru Canal and the city center,
it allows for a stay that effortlessly bridges sightseeing and everyday life.

"The kitchen is super clean and spotless everywhere
But you have to drive yourself.
And the road is slanted and buried
However, on the whole, the truth is good, it can accommodate a lot of people, the toilet is fresh and clean, and the smell of teak can be heard.
The landlord is extremely helpful 🥹"
