Palude Kushiro

This designer business hotel is very close to Kushiro Station. The guest rooms are defined by the simple, modern design of a monotone image. Dinners are very convenient, with "Kushiro Shokudo", an izakaya (traditional pub) styled after Hokkaido fishing ports included on the first floor. Here visitors may sample famous rice bowls, nearly overflowing with generous servings of delicacies such as salmon roe and crab. Or savor freshly-harvested oysters over sake or shochu.
