Ginrinso, Otaru, Hokkaido

Located in Otaru, a town of a canal with atmosphere, Ginrinso is a historical inn, with a high value as architectural heritage, designated as a cultural asset. Its origin dates back to 1878 when Otaru once flourished for herring fishing. At that time, Amimoto, heads of fisherman’s union who made a fortune on this herring fishing competed with each other in building a luxurious mansion without sparing expense, and more than 50 mansions said to have been built. Those were being called “Nishin Goten” a herring palace as a symbol of the prosperity of the town. Presently, Ginrinso is the only Nishin Goten that is commonly offered as an accommodation facility. Why not give more than a passing thought to the prosperity of those days while experiencing the historical heritage.

Among them, its superb open-air hot spring bath set high atop a small cape where a breath-taking panoramic view of Ishikari Bay can be enjoyed offers ultimate relaxation. For your dining pleasure, French cuisine and seasonal seafood delicacies are served at the Ginrinso Grill.
