Since it’s just one stop from Tokyo Station on the Sobu Rapid Line, I initially wondered if the access might be a bit inconvenient. However, after past experiences feeling overwhelmed by large groups of foreign tourists, I thought it might actually be quieter—and chose this hotel. It turned out to be absolutely the right choice. The Room was spacious enough for two people, and the large public bath was roomy and spotless. It was pleasantly uncrowded at just the right times, so we enjoyed it both at night and in the morning. At night, there was no noise from nearby rooms, and I was able to relax and sleep well. The standout feature was breakfast. These days it’s rare to see so many staff members on hand—everyone worked efficiently while greeting guests warmly. Both the side dishes and rice were delicious. A chef at the Japanese food station served corn takikomi rice and recommended their shaved ice as well, mentioning that even the syrups were homemade. I had matcha syrup with condensed milk, and my friend had Kaga roasted hojicha syrup with condensed milk. The ice was wonderfully fluffy, the syrups were rich in flavor, and the condensed milk had a clean sweetness—it was honestly the best shaved ice I’ve ever had. The front desk staff were also kind, efficient, and a pleasure to interact with. I’ll definitely stay here again when my friend visits Tokyo next time. Thank you very much.

It was my first time properly staying in Chitose (coming from Kyoto) for an event at the Cultural Center. First of all, the location is excellent. The Cultural Center is practically on the same grounds. A huge AEON mall is right next door. JR Chitose Station is across the street. My cousin I met up with stayed at a hotel nearby, and the izakaya I booked was also close by. In vast Hokkaido, this area was perfectly walkable. I arrived at night, so I took a taxi to check in. It cost about 3,000 yen, and I briefly thought, “Should I have rented a car?” But among the business hotels around the station, this one stood out with a distinctly upscale feel. The building is wide—and so was my room. From the glass-walled corner area I had a panoramic view of central Chitose, and any doubts disappeared instantly. The izakaya (something like “Direct Delivery ___ Seafood”) was a total miss, but I came back and slept like a log wrapped in comfortable sheets. And then—the breakfast buffet was outstanding! Honestly, it’s something that even that famous top-class morning buffet at “Shiki” in Osaka Umeda could learn from. After relaxing properly, I checked out and left my luggage in storage. I bought some sweets at AEON as gifts for the Cultural Center staff, then went back to AEON again for redemption after last night—this time picking up amazing Hokkaido ingredients (they were unbelievably delicious when we ate them right after getting home!). What really impressed me: they even have free locker-style refrigerated storage!!! We kept our food there while we enjoyed the event; then on my wife’s suggestion we took JR to the airport—600 yen for two people. Of course! We also had some time beforehand to relax in the plaza in front of the station—Chitose under clear autumn skies. With all that open space and low crowd density, we soaked up perfect sunshine and breeze. This may be an ANA Crowne Plaza review—but honestly it made me love Chitose itself even more. And yes: ANA truly feels like an excellent hotel that preserves classic Japanese first-class standards from the Showa era!

The in-room Facilities are excellent. It’s quiet, so you can sleep peacefully and relax. The sofa bed is also much more comfortable than those at other Hotels.

The front desk staff were very courteous, and both dinner and breakfast were excellent and delicious. It was disappointing that the Onsen is only available in the large public bath. The location was wonderful, and we were able to see Hashima Island. Thank you very much for your hospitality.

We had a relaxing stay as a couple. The service was excellent, and the property was kept very clean. The meals were especially outstanding, and we could really feel the care and passion of the kitchen staff. Everything was beautifully and thoughtfully presented, and the flavors were superb. We also enjoyed a variety of desserts, which made us very happy. We would love to visit again. Thank you very much.

Last time, we stayed in January of last year. Even in the freezing cold, having a BBQ while sitting under the kotatsu on the balcony was so much fun. This time, we returned at the end of summer with our senior dog. It was the best season, and we fully enjoyed the black-water Onsen both indoors and in the large public bath. The staff’s greetings as we passed by, their willingness to help when we needed it, and the front desk team’s smiles and efficient guidance were even more pleasant than before. The thorough cleanliness may also be thanks to considerate guests… Wherever you go, you can truly feel how comfortable it is. This Accommodation keeps evolving for the better every day, and we’re already looking forward to our next visit.

We stayed here to celebrate a birthday. The sashimi came with daikon carved into a crane, and there was also sekihan (red rice). Everything looked beautiful and tasted great, leaving both our stomachs and hearts full. All of the staff were wonderful and very considerate, which made our time here truly enjoyable. Thank you very much.

The exterior gives the impression of a traditional hotel, but once inside, it feels like a bright and clean luxury Ryokan. The rooms and hallways have a touch of Showa retro atmosphere, yet everything is impeccably clean and well-maintained. The staff's hospitality is excellent. As for the meals, true to the hotel's name, there are many recipes featuring apples that were both enjoyable and delicious. However, the highlight was definitely the Onsen. The large public bath was almost always private whenever I visited, and the water quality was incredibly smooth—leaving my skin warm and moisturized after bathing. I also appreciated how they separated bathing areas for day visitors and overnight guests, which added to the special feeling of staying there. The welcome apple was not only delicious but also a charming idea that brought warmth to my experience. I would love to visit again!

Whenever I visit Mie Prefecture, I always choose Todaya for my Accommodation. The Room is clean, and the Onsen is wonderfully relaxing. The meals are so plentiful and high-quality that I can’t eat another bite! Above all, the staff’s attentiveness and hospitality are perfect. I’ll be staying again next year. I’m already looking forward to it.

I stayed here on a business trip to Nagoya. This was my second visit, and once again I am truly grateful for your wonderful hospitality. The building’s design, with its extensive use of glass, is beautiful, and with the facilities being new, everything was spotless and impeccably clean. The meals and hot springs were excellent, the room was spacious, and the price was reasonable—making it another flawless stay. This time I also had more time, so I visited the adjacent Urakuen Garden as well. It was a fantastic place, and I sincerely appreciate being able to enter free of charge as a guest benefit. Inuyama is also conveniently located just over 30 minutes from Nagoya Station, so I would love to stay again on my next business trip to Nagoya. Thank you very much.

This year, at my wife’s invitation, I stayed here for a birthday trip for my son and myself. Compared with a year ago, there were more international staff members, but I could really feel how hard everyone was working. This year again we chose the [Premium] Chef’s Selection featuring spiny lobster, abalone, and Matsusaka beef. The sashimi was exceptionally fresh and delicious—we were very satisfied—and the other dishes were also creative and excellent. The Room was the Shiracho-kan Japanese-Western style room; it was easy to use, well cleaned, and very comfortable. The Onsen temperature suited my preference perfectly, and since it was Friday there seemed to be fewer guests, so I was able to enjoy it almost all to myself, which felt wonderful. I am always extremely satisfied with my stay every year; however, this time I noticed two things: the Matsusaka beef shabu-shabu did not have the usual impressive flavor I remember, and the toilet (washlet) in the Room feels quite old and does not function fully. Since I would like to continue staying here in future years as well, I appreciate your continued support. Thank you very much.

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 chose Haiya as my Accommodation in Awara Onsen for the first time in a year. I still remembered the layout and traditional furnishings of my previous Room (Iwashimizu), so I decided to stay here again. This time, my Room was “Choyo,” and I also loved its classic, traditional atmosphere. Best of all, the Room had an open-air bath, so I could relax and soak at my own pace and enjoy a different feel from the large public bath. As before, the meals featured plenty of locally sourced ingredients, including Wakasa beef, which I was able to savor fully. The many dishes served in tableware that evoked an autumn ambiance also showed the staff’s thoughtful attention to detail. I really like Haiya’s calm, high-quality atmosphere, and I plan to stay here again when I visit Awara Onsen next time.

The Onsen water was silky and very pleasant. The meals were plentiful, well-seasoned, and delicious. I would definitely like to stay at this Accommodation again.

I used to live in Kagawa Prefecture, so I’d been wanting to stay here at least once. The view from the Room was outstanding, with Yashima and the islands of the Seto Inland Sea visible. The Onsen water felt silky and gentle on the skin, and I was able to relax while listening to insects at night. The meals were made with local ingredients and were truly delicious. I also really appreciated the thoughtful hospitality of the staff, including those who welcomed us and took care of our dinner. Next time, I’d love to stay again with my children as well.

The views were incredible, and the sense of happiness in this space—free from everyday life—was overwhelming. In the open-air bath, during the day we enjoyed the calm sea, and at sunrise we eagerly waited with other guests gathered as if to watch the first sunrise of the year, feeling energized as we watched the bright red sun rise. The meals were also delicious for our whole family, featuring ingredients that stood out with a light touch of salt. The staff were kind, and like a hidden retreat, we would love to come again to rest both mind and body. It was a wonderful Hotel. Thank you very much.

The meals, amenities, and services were excellent and attentive. Small thoughtful touches—such as sleepwear, a bath chair, complimentary drinks, and bottled water—made our stay very comfortable.

I’ve never liked insects, so I’m not a fan of open-air baths in this season. However, they had taken precautions, so I was able to bathe without stress. I deducted one star because the chlorine smell in the indoor bath bothered me. The food was delicious and almost too much in quantity.

We used the anniversary plan to celebrate our grandchild’s birthday. The quality exceeded our expectations, and both our grandchild and daughter were delighted. We brought our own cake, and when it was brought out, the staff sang “Happy Birthday,” which was truly moving. Thank you very much.

My parents stayed here because they had been interested in it for a while. Since it was a weekday, it was fairly quiet and they were able to relax. They were also happy that other older guests were using the pool too, so they felt comfortable using it without hesitation, and they said the food was beautifully presented and delicious!
