We reserved the Luxury D-type Room as a couple. We love traveling and visit great Accommodations all over Japan, and from the moment we arrived by car until we were seen off, we had a truly wonderful stay. First of all, the Accommodation was spotless. The staff’s greetings were excellent. Mainly during meals, international staff assisted us and did their best to explain each dish using challenging Japanese. The Room was also very clean—we were thrilled! Unfortunately it was cloudy, but even so, the view from the open-air bath was amazing. Including the large public bath and private baths, I can’t even count how many times we soaked in the baths... The dinner and breakfast were both delicious—we were completely full. Thank you for such a comfortable time. We would love to visit again.

We celebrated his birthday here. We chose this Accommodation to celebrate as the last couple before we become husband and wife when we visit Shimabara again next year. We were truly impressed by the staff’s thoughtful hospitality, and the locally sourced cuisine was absolutely delicious. The in-Room sauna and bath were both excellent. Everything was perfect.

It was my first time staying at an all-inclusive Hotel, and I was truly impressed by how outstanding and delicious the food was. The staff were also very helpful and responded quickly to any questions, which I really appreciated. I would like to visit again during the autumn foliage season.

I was amazed by the amount of food served at dinner. There was more than I could finish, and given the times we live in, I felt very sorry about that. With plenty of fresh Sanriku seafood and a relaxing soak in the Onsen, it was an Accommodation I was extremely satisfied with.

This was my first trip to Iwate, and I stayed here. It was close to the station, very clean, and I was extremely satisfied. I was impressed by how delicious the honey served at breakfast was. The staff greeted me with warm smiles—thank you very much. I would definitely like to stay again next time.

An auberge in Ise-Shima. Both the facilities and pricing are casual, but the dining is exceptionally satisfying. Accommodation and meals here are often expensive, but this place is a great value at around JPY 20,000 per person for one night with two meals. The restaurant has high ceilings and large glass windows, creating a bright, open atmosphere. At night the lighting is slightly subdued, making the ambience even better. As expected in Ise-Shima—known as “Miketsukuni,” the land of fine food—plenty of local ingredients are used. We thoroughly enjoyed abalone, Kumano beef, and spiny lobster and were very satisfied. The cuisine feels like creative fusion combining Japanese and Western styles. The presentation was as delicious to look at as it was to eat. In particular, the pairing of tender, fragrant eel with springy abalone—accented by sansho pepper—was outstanding and truly unique to Ise-Shima. Shima conger eel (hamo) and grilled eggplant with doburoku miso and ginger sauce Wild softshell turtle Japanese medicinal soup Local fish salad-style dish Abalone and eel grilled with sansho pepper; kinome miso and sansho olive oil Charcoal-grilled Mikumano beef with tomato-and-shiso condiment Corn rice; miso soup with spiny lobster broth Pistachio mousse and mango sorbet

A two-person trip with a friend I had long wanted to visit Ushimado after hearing that the food is excellent. We chose Hotel Limani for its Greek cuisine and resort-like atmosphere, and stayed there. Every dish was delicious, and the portions were more than enough. The slow pace of time, spacious guest room, restaurant, staff, large public bath, sunset, and the sound of the waves were all so soothing. It was a truly luxurious and wonderful experience.

We originally planned to stay for one night, but since the weather at our next destination didn’t look promising, we decided on a last-minute Multiple Night Stay here. Before staying here, we had been at the Grand Prince Hotel Hiroshima, and compared with that, this Hotel felt more family-friendly and enjoyable even with children. It’s a little away from the center of Dogo Onsen, but a free retro-style Shuttle Service bus runs regularly, so the distance hardly bothered us. There is a footbath at the Hotel entrance that you can enjoy anytime. In the evening, there was also a festival-style kids’ fair held next to the souvenir shop area, which delighted our child. The baths are divided between an indoor bath on the 3rd floor and an open-air bath on the 4th floor. Each has its own atmosphere, and it was great being able to enjoy both. The food was delicious and our whole family was very satisfied. The staff were courteous as well, so we could relax and feel comfortable throughout our stay. This last-minute Multiple Night Stay turned out to be absolutely the right choice. When we visit Dogo Onsen as a family again, we would definitely like to stay here again—certainly a repeat for us. The Dogo Prince Hotel character “Yutama Prince” greeted us at check-in and saw us off at check-out at the entrance. We hope he keeps up the great work!

I stayed here with my husband while I was pregnant. One morning, we woke up unusually early and took a walk together to Kiyomizu-dera Temple. The location is excellent, and I think it’s ideal for sightseeing. The lounge was also very comfortable. I recommend staying in a Room with a large bath!

Because I was traveling with my elderly mother (in her 80s, with lower back pain), I consulted in advance, and they provided a rollaway bed in our Room and also brought in a table for in-room dining. Instead of taking the garden path with stairs to the entrance as usual, a staff member picked us up by car at the parking lot, and we entered through the rear entrance on the 4th floor. Since our Room had a private bath, my mother felt at ease and was able to soak comfortably. Even when the water was hot, she could adjust it with cold water and enjoy several baths. The meals were on the Standard Plan, but every dish was easy to eat, delicious, and more than enough in quantity. The trainee also explained each dish carefully and kindly offered to take photos for us. We were able to relax very peacefully during our stay. Just one thing: because there was a step down at the toilet entrance, I felt it might be a little unsafe for elderly guests; it would be better if it were flat or had a ramp. This time we spent most of our time in the Room, but if we have another opportunity to stay again, we would like to enjoy the garden and the open-air bath as well.

I made a last-minute reservation two days before my stay. The front desk staff were very kind and attentive, and their friendly, approachable manner left a great impression. Even though I booked at a very low rate, they upgraded my room because there was availability. The room and bathroom were spacious, and my child really enjoyed it. I will stay here again when visiting the Gotemba area. Thank you very much.

Although it is a Business Hotel in style, the Onsen was excellent, and the breakfast in particular was more luxurious and delicious than expected. For dinner, we used a voucher provided at the front desk and went to a robatayaki restaurant. With restaurants nearby and enjoyable night views, it was a comfortable Hotel to stay in.

We stayed in an 8-tatami Japanese-style room, and it was very clean. The view from the window felt open and spacious, and we were able to relax comfortably. The baths were also excellent, with many different jacuzzi-style tubs to enjoy. Both the front desk staff and the shop staff were kind and supportive, which made us very happy and left us with wonderful travel memories. While waiting for the bus, we adjusted our schedule by having some self-serve coffee, and the spacious lobby filled with bright natural light was fantastic. Since this is near my late mother’s family home, my husband and I have been talking about coming back again in spring. Overall, we really loved the calm atmosphere of the area.

We received warm hospitality. The kaiseki meal was very satisfying, allowing us to fully enjoy plenty of Niigata ingredients. The Japanese-style room was also spacious and comfortable.

Two nights for sightseeing. The location is perfect. Bunmeido Sohonten is just nearby, and there’s a great Italian restaurant close by as well. You’re also near Youme Town. It’s a good idea to check the parking in advance—I drove past it. Breakfast was delicious too. We had a wonderful stay. Thank you very much.

It was a relief to see the people who had taken care of me before. Set on a quiet hill with great views, the staff were all cheerful and courteous, the Room was clean, the Onsen was relaxing, and the full-course meal was delicious—more than enough to be fully satisfied. Unfortunately it was raining when I left, but at checkout they lent me an umbrella and told me to take it home, which really helped. This is an Accommodation I would like to stay at again.

I got a little lost from the station, but the front desk staff gave me clear and polite directions, so I think I’ll be able to get there without getting lost next time. It’s almost directly connected via the Tokyo Station underground mall, which makes it very convenient. It was also great that there are plenty of convenience stores and restaurants around the Hotel. There was construction nearby, but there was no noise at all and it didn’t bother me. The complimentary drinks and amenities were of a very high standard, with an excellent selection that women in particular will appreciate. The Room was compact yet spacious, clean, quiet, and very comfortable. I stayed for only one night this time, but it was a good Hotel that I’d like to use again when booking Accommodation around Tokyo Station. Thank you very much.

This was our family’s first trip to Miyajima. Unfortunately it rained, but we made wonderful memories thanks to the island’s solemn atmosphere and the warm hospitality of the local people. Everyone at Kinsuikan kindly answered our questions even before the trip, and on the day of our stay every staff member greeted us with a smile and attentive service, which left a strong impression. There were many young staff members as well, and their energy really uplifted us. It was a time that made us feel Miyajima will continue to be a wonderful place in the years ahead. Thank you very much for taking such good care of us. We would love to visit again in a different season. Thank you.

The room was spacious and quiet. The in-room bath is also fed directly from the hot spring source, which was very relaxing. The alkaline hot spring (pH 9.3) leaves your skin feeling wonderfully smooth. The large public bath was also spacious and enjoyable. The meals were luxurious and absolutely delicious. Because the duvet cover is very slippery and tends to slide off, I think it would be better to change the cover material. All of the staff were very kind as well. I’d love to visit again.

The large public bath is available from 5:30 a.m. to midnight, so I was able to enjoy the Onsen many times at different hours. Both dinner and breakfast were nourishing and truly delicious. Ryokan meals can sometimes be heavily seasoned, but here nothing was surprisingly salty, and I enjoyed everything. In the guest lounge, there were treats like dadacha-mame ice cream and Onsen manju, plus DIY Onsen eggs—these little services were a lot of fun. I also appreciated that soft drinks were unlimited. The garden is lovely, and there are also amenities like spa treatments, table tennis, and a large shogi board, so there’s plenty to enjoy inside as well. I had a luxurious time soaking in the Onsen, enjoying great food, and relaxing at the Accommodation. I would definitely love to visit again.
