"Kashintei Shirahama is definitely one of the best Japanese ryokans we have visited. Location wise it's perfectly located right by Lake Tazawa, 30 minutes from Kakunodate, ski resort, Dakigaeri Valley, Tatsuko statue. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful, especially Nori-san and Minori. Whenever we hit a snag with our communications, Google Translate would hop in. The first floor is where the private onsen and public onsen are located. The rooms are on 3rd,4th and 5th, with 5 units on each...

"I really enjoyed my stay here. Quiet town, comfortable bed, friendly host who also speaks english. Would highly recommend as a solo traveller who has been to Japan 6 times. Thanks once again. "

"Perfect spot to get rid of the city life "

"よかった"

"Das Haus ist sehr schön und groß. Es ist mit allem eingerichtet, was man braucht, wenn man sich selbst verpflegen möchte. Das frisch zubereitete Essen mit Gemüse aus dem eigenen Garten schmeckt hervorragend. Die Gastgeber sind super nett und behandeln einen nicht wie Hotelgäste, sondern wie Freunde. Ich werde in jedem Fall dort wieder einen längeren Aufenthalt planen."

"Meraviglioso soggiorno!"
