This was my first stay. Security is very solid, so even if you leave the door slightly open, it locks right away. Having the parking lot right in front was very convenient. However, since it’s a container-style Accommodation, I sometimes felt it shake when someone walked inside while I was on the bed (I even mistook it for an earthquake). It might not bother you once you get used to it, but as a first-timer I noticed it a bit.

This was my first time staying here, and honestly, it was outstanding. The moment I walked up the hill and stepped onto the villa grounds, I was captivated by the unique look of each building and the wonderfully refreshing views. Inside the villa, everything was spotless. A welcome drink was prepared, and the refrigerator was packed with an overflowing selection of complimentary beverages. I couldn’t help but say out loud, “This is amazing…” We also got to let our children experience farming activities—they were thrilled to harvest eggplants and green peppers. Feeding the chickens and hearing about how they’re raised was also a valuable experience. A couple of notes: there are no convenience stores or supermarkets nearby, so I recommend buying what you need in advance. Also, there generally isn’t a microwave in the Room, but when we called the management building and asked, they brought one over and set it up for us. We will definitely stay again! It was so good that I want it to become popular—but at the same time, part of me doesn’t want it to get too popular (lol).

My friend and I stayed at OCEAN. When we woke up around 6:00 a.m., the sun was just rising. Through the large bedroom window, we saw the calm Seto Inland Sea and a soft pastel sky, and watching the orange sun appear between them was beyond words. When we stepped outside and went down the stairs, there was also a sandy beach that felt like our own private ocean—I’d love to come back in summer. Because it’s an entire home rental, we were able to relax together without worrying about anyone else, which was wonderful. It became one of my best memories from our trip to Kagawa.

We stayed for one night with No Meals Included just after the Obon holiday season. The location is almost in the center of the Onsen town, right next to Ichino-yu, making it perfect for visiting the public baths and strolling around town. Our Room was on the 3rd floor facing the Onsen street, with two beds. Some details felt a bit dated, but overall it was clean and pleasant. You can clearly hear the sound of people’s geta outside, but I found it atmospheric and didn’t mind much. During summer vacation in Kinosaki Onsen, fireworks are launched from 21:00, and it was wonderful to be able to see them from our window. There are two indoor baths: the left one is quite lukewarm and may be good for soaking for a long time. The right one is a bit hotter and also has a cold bath, which I really appreciated! Since Kinosaki’s public baths don’t have cold baths, this was especially welcome for me. The water also pours like a waterfall from a lion-shaped spout (maybe), so you can let it hit your stiff shoulders like a water massage. For parking, the Ryokan’s information points to nearby paid parking lots, but there is also a municipal lot very close by that is cheaper at JPY 1,000 for 12 hours. However, when we arrived there was a waitlist line up, so we used “Kinosaki Motor Pool” listed in their guidance (JPY 1,700). The municipal lot is cheaper and allows longer stays, but if you take your car out during your stay you’ll be charged again each time—so if you plan to drive out for shopping or similar errands, Kinosaki Motor Pool may be more convenient. The young proprietress was very friendly and charming (according to my wife), and we enjoyed chatting with her. One small disappointment was that the air conditioner in our Room didn’t seem well cleaned—the airflow smelled slightly musty and there was visible dirt around the vent. A different Accommodation we stayed at last year had a dirty air conditioner too; maybe places where each Room has its own unit tend to struggle with keeping up with cleaning? Also, I didn’t notice while we were using toilets at the public baths during our outings—but when I used our toilet the next morning, the washlet function wasn’t working properly. Overall we were very satisfied, and we’d like to stay here again when we visit Kinosaki next time.

Excellent value for money. With all-you-can-drink and all-you-can-eat, plus great service from the staff, we were very satisfied. It would be a big hit for large groups of friends, training camps, or company trips. We’d love to come again.

I stayed here during my visit to the Expo. The staff were very friendly and provided excellent service. The large public bath was a great relief after a tiring day of walking. However, the changing room was crowded, possibly due to peak hours, and I couldn't use the hairdryer. The breakfast was delicious. Conveniently located with good transportation access, this Hotel is highly recommended.

The hotel entrance is marked only with a symbol, making it very difficult to find. Even after entering, it was hard to locate my room (no room number displayed), so I had to call the office for assistance. My room was in the back storage house, with the bedroom on the second floor. The lighting was dim as it relied solely on indirect lighting. The TV is located on the first floor and is exclusively for Netflix viewing. However, the courtyard design is stunning and gives a feeling of being in another world. It’s an accommodation worth staying at least once. The room I stayed in had only a shower facility.

Is the Accommodation named Ryugu Palace, with Otohime as the first-floor restaurant, and are guests treated like Urashima Taro? Otohime’s meals were delicious, and nearby there are: Hamburg Club within walking distance Cafe Daibosatsu Pass a few minutes away by car Both are fascinating places—I feel like I could end up eating about five meals a day.

It was a small, cozy Accommodation. The hospitality was warm. I wish the amenities had been a bit more complete, but I enjoyed the breakfast. I would like to stay again if I have the opportunity.

Even though I’m from Gonohe Town, I stayed here for the first time and only then realized what a wonderful Onsen and such a great Accommodation it has. I’ve used the baths many times, but my wife from Kyushu really wanted to stay overnight, so we booked with breakfast. The baths were excellent, and while the Room is a bit old, it was kept extremely clean. To be honest, I wasn’t expecting much from breakfast—but it was outstanding. The female staff’s pleasant greetings and service were excellent. We’ll be back. Thank you very much.

The staff’s hospitality was truly pleasant. It wasn’t too mechanical or overly familiar—just the right level of attentiveness. Late at night, I read manga in the lounge, and nearby a family of guests was enjoying board games, creating a warm and relaxed atmosphere. The Room was small but very clean, including the bathroom and toilet. The larger bed was a Sealy. It felt as if it gently conformed to my body, and I personally slept very comfortably. Breakfast was an ochazuke set meal. I added toppings like sakura shrimp (I think), tororo kombu (shredded kelp), and Nozawana pickles, then poured dashi over it. Everything—from grilled fish to simmered dishes, stir-fried items, miso soup, salad, and fruit—was well balanced and delicious. Although it was cloudy/rainy throughout my stay and we even had heavy rain on the second day, I still felt great. I’d love to visit again when the weather is clear. Thank you very much.

The Room was spacious and very clean. Meal vouchers are provided, so you can have at least one meal per day. There is also a two-tier refrigerator (with a freezer) and a microwave, which is very convenient. There is also an on-site coin laundry (front-loading). If you are arriving by car, it is convenient because you can drive right up to the front of your Room. We also appreciate the thoughtful gesture of having the air conditioning turned on in this heat.

Although our arrival was slightly later than planned, we received a call and experienced excellent service at this wonderful Ryokan.

Staying at a ryokan located within a temple's grounds was a first for me, and I was quite excited. The facility is old, but the bath was newly renovated and very comfortable to use. Above all, the meals were delicious. The variety of dishes, even though it was traditional vegetarian cuisine, never felt monotonous. It was truly wonderful. If it were closer, I would love to visit again just for the meals. Such a delightful accommodation.

Brand new and very clean. The price is reasonable compared to nearby facilities. I would love to stay here again if I have the chance. ◯ Well-equipped Facilities - Almost new appliances such as refrigerator, microwave, air conditioner, and air purifier. - Washing machine available (not used this time). ◯ Okinawan Atmosphere - Okinawan house ornaments by the bedside. - A collection of Yachimun pottery dishes? ◯ Location - Ocean view on the west side. - Convenience stores and supermarkets nearby. If I had to mention... - Being a three-story building, moving between floors might feel slightly inconvenient for those not accustomed to it. - The air conditioner on the second floor is positioned low, which might make it feel cold when directed at the bed.

I stayed for five nights to relax. I could enjoy the natural hot-spring Onsen anytime, and it was so pleasant that I had a comfortable stay. I was also surprised that the menu changed every day, and everything was delicious—I was very satisfied. Above all, everyone at the Accommodation was kind, and their warmth made me feel truly at ease and completely refreshed.

I stayed here after hiking. The Accommodation doesn’t have an Onsen, but there are plenty of Onsens nearby, so it wasn’t a problem. It’s an old building, but it was very clean, and the hostess was friendly and easy to talk to, so I could relax even as a solo traveler. It’s rare to find this price with breakfast and dinner included. I’m satisfied.

I stayed here to watch the Hashi Festival fireworks. The building is old, but everything is clean; the Room is spacious, with well-stocked amenities and Facility, and the Onsen is at a perfect temperature—an Accommodation with nothing to fault. All staff were naturally friendly and kind, and I was especially impressed by the approachable, warm driver of the Shuttle Service. I also stayed in July at a certain Ryokan in Ito that is said to be very popular among Onsen enthusiasts and hard to get a Reservation for, but I definitely preferred this one.

Thanks to the Diamond member benefit allowing us to stay until 1:00 PM, we were able to relax and take our time. The amenities and drinks were well stocked, and everything was comfortable with no inconvenience. The bath had strong water pressure and filled up quickly, which was a nice plus since there was no stress from waiting. Breakfast was delivered to our Room, so we could enjoy it slowly without worrying about others. However, it tended to cool down a bit over time, so better heat retention would make it even nicer. Also, the table in the Room was a little low, making it slightly difficult to eat comfortably. Those were the only minor points—overall, it offered great value for money and we were very satisfied with our stay. We would definitely like to use it again.

Three women stayed here. The hostess was very friendly, offered helpful advice on various things, and took great care of us. The catered breakfast bento was also delicious. Because it faces a main road, we were worried about noise, but it wasn’t too bothersome. However, it may not be suitable for those seeking complete quiet at the Accommodation. The interior and Facilities were well maintained, and we had a comfortable stay.
