I had plans in Nagaoka and stayed here the night before. I headed for the English Garden at the end of my sightseeing, and was surprised to find it right behind the Hotel. When I entered my Room, there was a handwritten message from the front desk with my name on it—I was truly touched. I got around by car, and was able to use Mitsuke Kenko no Yu Hotto Pia for 450 yen. It felt great! So I used the bathtub in the Room as a morning shower. The shampoo and other amenities had a black tea scent. They even provided a bathrobe—another pleasant surprise. There were also a microwave and disposable chopsticks near the elevator. Other than conversations in the hallway, noise didn’t bother me, and I could relax. (I did hear trains passing by.) It was very clean, with attentive service, and I’d like to stay again. However, since I have neck issues, the pillow was too soft for me, so I used a bath towel instead. Other than that, it was wonderful. Thank you very much.

I stayed in the single building. The Room was spacious enough for one person, clean, and very relaxing. The Onsen baths each felt different, and all of them were wonderful. The herbal sauna was a comfortable temperature for me, and I felt refreshed from the inside out. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious. I could only use the indoor bath once due to my schedule, but it was also very pleasant, so I’d love to stay again and enjoy it next time.

We stayed as a family of three. My husband had stayed here twice before and recommended it, saying it was a wonderful Accommodation. It’s a small Ryokan, and perhaps because of that, we felt thoughtful attention to detail in every corner. What impressed us most was the food. Everything was delicious and carefully prepared. The garden view from our Room was also lovely. We thought the Japanese garden seen through the large windows must be at its best during the autumn foliage season.

I visited Kamikoshiki Island for a 2-night, 3-day trip starting June 8. The Hotel I stayed at, “HOTEL AreaOne Koshiki Island,” was just steps from Sato Port Terminal—an unbeatable location and the perfect base for exploring the island. The Room was on the 5th floor of a six-story building. As soon as I opened the door, the comforting scent of tatami welcomed me. The warmth of sleeping on a futon again made me want to just stretch out and relax right away. Unfortunately, light rain fell through the second day due to a weather front—but even that added to the atmosphere of the trip. Turning on the TV, I could watch NHK plus four commercial channels clearly (BS/CS wasn’t available), and it was genuinely pleasant to spend some quiet time unwinding in the Room. Best of all was the large Onsen bath! I eased my travel fatigue in the spacious indoor bath, then moved to the open-air bath where a refreshing breeze flowed through. Soaking while listening to raindrops made for an especially memorable and satisfying moment. Breakfast was a generous buffet-style spread. Even though I had it two mornings in a row, there were thoughtful changes to keep things interesting, so each morning still felt fresh and exciting. From Kagoshima’s famous crispy satsuma-age fish cakes to other local flavors lined up beautifully, it was hard not to keep eating from early in the day. (I had dinner elsewhere, but with breakfast this good, I can only imagine dinner would be delicious too.) Then came morning on day three. When I opened the curtains—clear skies as if all that rain had been a lie! From my 5th-floor window stretched a vivid ocean view as far as I could see. The sparkling sea and grand island scenery took my breath away in an instant—an unforgettable sight. It turned into an amazing 2-night stay where I got to fully enjoy both rainy-day charm and brilliant blue skies over the sea—truly luxurious in every way.

As you drive up the winding mountain road with hairpin turns, you’ll eventually spot the Hotel at the top. With expectations rising for a great view… Once inside, the large lobby windows more than delivered, offering a breathtaking panoramic view over Mikawa Bay. In the Japanese-style Room, two beds had been set up—an appreciated touch for us as an older couple. Of course, the view from the Room was spectacular as well. The large public bath had both an indoor bath and an open-air bath at just the right temperature, and it felt wonderful. I wanted to stay in forever, so I cooled off now and then by splashing lukewarm water or cold water on myself to avoid overheating before soaking again. (Laughs) Dinner featured Aichi beef sukiyaki and abalone steak. Both were so delicious I wished I could have eaten more—but after finishing everything served, I realized it was actually the perfect amount. These days buffets are common and I often end up overeating, so having table service in a restaurant like this felt calm and healthy. Okazaki Castle is also about an hour’s drive from the Hotel, and I was happy to be able to reflect on Tokugawa Ieyasu’s legacy there. Within the castle grounds, Mikawa Bushi no Yakata: Ieyasu Museum is thoughtfully designed with well-planned exhibits—I’d love to visit again at a slower pace.

We stayed here on our first trip to Tottori as a family of five. We were surprised at how reasonably priced it was, including the Room, bath, and meals. Everything exceeded our expectations. They also offer yukata rentals for your stay, and our children were happy to choose their favorite patterns.

Although we were informed that the air conditioning is centrally controlled throughout the building, it was a little cold. Due to the typhoon, it suddenly became cooler, so it couldn’t be helped, but it finally warmed up by early morning.

When I checked in on a rainy day, I was truly touched to be offered a towel. Parking is also available, and at check-out I was even happier to see my name posted in the parking area. The room was simple yet highly functional, and having a microwave made it perfect. It was reasonably priced, but I was very satisfied. The bathroom has a shower only.

I asked if you could store our luggage on the night we weren’t staying because of a concert, and you kindly agreed—it was a huge help. Every staff member was calm and attentive, and we were able to relax completely. My son loved it too!

Thank you for your hospitality. The property is close to Shin-Osaka Station, reasonably priced, and I was very satisfied. I will use it again the next time I visit Osaka. Thank you in advance.

The front desk staff were very kind.

This was my first visit to Hiroshima, and I stayed here for two nights. The Hotel is conveniently located right in front of the tram stop from Hiroshima Station, making check-in quick and easy. The next day, I took a bus to the zoo, and since the hotel is directly connected to the bus center, it was very convenient. Sogo department store is right next door, and there’s a convenience store nearby as well. The Atomic Bomb Dome is also just a short walk away. It’s an excellent location for shopping and sightseeing, and I would definitely stay here again on my next trip to Hiroshima.

I think this building was renovated from a former studio apartment into a Hotel. The Room is spacious for the price. The bath is small, but the toilet is separate. Next time I stay in Tsuruhashi, I’d like to use it again.

It’s not a new Hotel, but the amenities, choice of shampoos, and large public bath made for a comfortable stay. The location is also great. You can easily go out for drinks nearby.

This was my first time staying here. I left my luggage in the morning and informed the staff that I would be checking in late, and they kindly delivered my luggage to the Room, which was very helpful. They also answered my question about towel exchange clearly, which I appreciated. The Room was clean, the bed was spacious, and I could relax comfortably. The table and chairs were sturdy and easy to use. I would love to stay here again!

It was close to Kakegawa Station and I was able to stay at an affordable price. The amenities were plentiful, and it was very helpful to have even sunscreen and hair oil provided (it’s rare to find sunscreen available). Breakfast was also great, with plenty of drink options. I’d like to use this Accommodation again when I visit Kakegawa Station. Thank you.

The large public bath was clean and very nice.\nWe enjoyed the well-equipped recreational area on the first floor, including table tennis.\nWe were satisfied with the service.

I was able to stay at a very reasonable price. It is also conveniently located just a short walk from the station. Best of all, the food was excellent. Dinner was stylish and very delicious. Breakfast was also delicious. I will come again. Thank you very much.

I stay here whenever I need a change of pace. Since I visit often, the low Accommodation Fee is a huge help. Even though breakfast is free, there’s a good selection and it’s delicious. I used to pick up dinner at the nearby AEON, but lately I’ve been enjoying drinking alone at “Kamado-ka” on the first floor of the Hotel. The all-you-can-drink option is an affordable 1,000 yen. The dimly lit interior feels cozy, and even women dining alone can relax comfortably. I also recommend the kamameshi (rice cooked in an iron pot).

I stayed for one night. I arrived much earlier than the check-in time, but since the room was ready, I was able to check in earlier than planned and take a short rest before sightseeing. The front desk staff were kind, and I had a comfortable stay. Next time, I would like to stay for multiple nights. It was very convenient as it is located very close to the station.
