Cat Cafe & Stay Cultus's Home

猫との戯れ以上にオーナーの話が楽しかった。

スタッフのフレンド対応

スタッフさんは現地までの移動はタクシーが推奨と言われたが 駅から宿までは結構登り坂の為、大きな荷物の人はタクシー移動を推奨する　帰り駅までは徒歩で十分　キャスター付き荷物なら徒歩は推奨しないかな

八隻貓，老闆兼營貓咖啡，會日文或簡單英文又愛貓的可以來聊天

交通不方便，建議自駕來或是多人搭計程車比較適合，因為有宵禁若是有夜遊習慣的不適合

猫が可愛い オーナーさんがいい人

Peu de chose en réalité.

L'hôte m'est apparu davantage préoccupé par ses chats que par moi. Rigide au point d'en paraître comique.. Peut-être ma perception est-elle le fruit d'une différence de culture? Alors je vais donner une illustration concrète, choisie parmi d'autres possibles. La voici: il a refusé de m'aider alors qu'il a admis, possédant un four micro-ondes, qu'il avait la possibilité de réchauffer mon maigre repas du soir. Sa raison: mon repas n'était pas sous la forme d'un bento...Son auberge étant très haut perché, il fallait avoir une bonne faim pour se motiver d'aller explorer les environs en quête d'un bon restaurant...

かわいいネコちゃんと遊べる所！ オーナーさんも、話しやすくて良かったです(^^)

初めて行く人には少し分かりづらい立地

If you like cats and want to experience a stay in a typical Japanese house and don't want to stay out late, then this is for you. The room is a traditional mat room and you sleep on a futon. There is only one guest room, so while the toilet / sink is outside of the room, you're not sharing. The room is lockable. The shower is available until 9pm. You can interact with the cats in the living room in the evening and morning, there is free morning coffee. The owner, Miyazaki San is really friendly and very knowledgeable about Otaru. He gave me a great recommendation for a local sushi restaurant, which was amazing.

I totally enjoyed my stay. Miyazaki San is quite clear on what the guesthouse rules and times are and if this is not a problem for you, then this is an amazing, quirky place to stay. The guesthouse is slightly off the road behind another house, I needed to check the guesthouse sign in the doorway before being sure that I had the right place.

Excellent place to stay if you have a car, and especially if you love cats. The Japanese style bedroom is clean and comfortable. Bathroom and shower facilities are technically shared, but since there seems to be only one guestroom, you are really the only ones using them. Host is super polite, and makes an effort to communicate via Google Translate. This place is in a quiet neighbourhood ~20min walk to the canal. It's also a bit of a walk up a slope. Not really an issue if you have a car. Note that the shower is on the other side of the "cat room", and the cats' bedtime is around 9PM, so the owner requests that the guests return/arrive before then. Just something to be aware of. For us, any minor inconveniences are completely offset by being able to spend some quality time at the end of the day with several friendly cats.

There's not much we disliked. See the "like" section for some notes on location and arrival time. Both are minor if you know what to expect.
