Nationwide × Stays Popular For SunsetsHighly rated Hotel·Ryokan for Onsen and bath - 37Page Number

The ocean was right in front of me, the views were wonderful, the Facility was clean, and I was very satisfied with the wide variety of dishes. On the way home, I stopped by Marine World Aquarium and then drove six hours on the expressway to get back. It was a very good trip. Kyu

The bath used to feel outdated, but it has been renovated and is much better now. The water temperature was just right. The meals were also delicious.

It is conveniently located near Matsue Castle, and we stayed here while sightseeing.

We stayed with seven people and one Shiba Inu. The house was spacious, well stocked with amenities, and the kitchen was very comfortable to use. The area was very quiet, and it felt like we had the wide ocean all to ourselves. Fishing for whiting from the concrete pier was fantastic. The sauna was also excellent, and cooling down while looking out at the sea afterward was pure bliss. Kids, adults, and our dog were all very satisfied.

We stayed with two dogs and our 1-year-old child. We were worried because we had a lot of luggage, but since we had requested a dog stroller in advance, we were delighted to see one at the entrance with our dogs’ names on it. The dog-first hospitality was wonderful, and the Room was well stocked with amenities for our dogs. We could also dine together, and we were able to relax comfortably. Above all, the staff’s kind attentiveness helped soothe the fatigue from our long journey. If we have the chance, we would love to stay again.

The simple service was nice. Even though it was very affordable, it included two solid meals, which was great. Also, since there were few other guests, I could relax in the Onsen, and it was great that the massage chairs were free as well. The gratin and pudding were delicious.

We stayed here to visit Toy Kingdom. We chose this Hotel because it was close—about a 6-minute drive from Toy Kingdom. The exterior looks a bit aged, but the inside was well cleaned and comfortable. We stayed in a Japanese-style Room on the ocean side. However, since it was on the second floor, trees blocked the view and we couldn’t really enjoy the scenery. The amenities were fine overall, but it was disappointing that there were no skincare items like lotion provided in the Room. Also, perhaps because it was summer, the bath water temperature was extremely hot. Our 7-year-old daughter kept going back and forth between the cold bath and the hot bath (lol), and our 5-year-old son didn’t seem able to get in. At the buffet, they grilled meat at a live kitchen station, and it was tender and very delicious. There was also a great variety of ice cream. It felt like most guests were families, so we thought this Hotel would be very comfortable for those traveling with children.

Thank you for taking care of us at the end of this month.\nEven though it was last-minute, three nights with breakfast and dinner at this price was a great deal. The Reviews were good, so we were really looking forward to it.\nI called because I thought we might be late for check-in, and the response was smooth and courteous. The explanation at check-in was also clear and helpful.\nThe boxed dinners changed daily and were delicious every day! The portions were just right, too. The rice was also excellent!\nThe Room was thoroughly cleaned, and we had a comfortable stay. We could relax while looking out at the sea. Maybe because we had good weather, the ocean looked beautiful and clear.\nThe breakfast buffet had just the right variety. The egg over rice was delicious! Personally, I only wished there had been a small dessert option at breakfast.\nWe didn’t use the Onsen, so I rated it as average.\nThere were no amenities in the Room, but everything we needed was available in front of the elevator area, so we could pick them up there. I actually prefer this setup.\nThere aren’t any convenience stores nearby, so it may be best to buy what you need before you go.\nAll staff members were polite and helpful as well.\nOn our way back we toured around Shimane safely and had a great time.\nThank you very much. We’d love to come again!

We visited this Hotel to celebrate a special anniversary. During the day, we enjoyed chatting in our Room, and with the Executive Floor benefits we spent an elegant time in the 1st-floor lounge while enjoying high-quality plated food and drinks. That evening, we had a celebratory dinner course at Ryuhou, the Chinese restaurant on the 2nd floor. The atmosphere was luxurious and refined, and the staff’s hospitality was outstanding. We were able to fully enjoy an elegant and delicious Chinese course meal. They even added a congratulatory message to our dessert plate, and being able to celebrate this once-in-a-lifetime anniversary at this Hotel—and at Ryuhou—made us truly happy! Our Junior Suite offered a panoramic view of Sakai City from a high floor. Separated from the bedroom area, there was a spacious sofa and table arranged comfortably. It was quiet, and since the in-room minibar was complimentary, it was perfect for relaxing and chatting while enjoying canned beer and snacks. The bathroom area is also luxurious, with a separate shower booth and toilet, plus a jet bath function. From our east-facing Room, we could also faintly see the UNESCO World Heritage site of Emperor Nintoku’s Tomb amid the cityscape of Sakai. As a local sightseeing recommendation: Daisen Park is about 10 minutes by car from the Hotel. Within its grounds there is an attraction where you can ride in a hot-air balloon; from about 100 meters up you can take in the majestic view of Emperor Nintoku’s Tomb. I highly recommend taking a short trip for this balloon experience! The views from above—Sakai City, Osaka Bay, the Ikoma mountain range, and keyhole-shaped kofun burial mounds—are breathtaking. This Hotel has been my favorite for many years. I’ve stayed here for anniversaries like this one or simply to spend relaxing holidays. During COVID-19 restrictions when it was difficult to travel outside Osaka Prefecture, I refreshed myself by changing my mood in Rooms with beautiful views. One year when a typhoon was approaching, I also stayed here for safety reasons and spent the night with peace of mind. No matter what is happening around us, all of your staff have always provided consistent hospitality and welcomed me with calm smiles—I am truly grateful every time. With so many wonderful staff members here, I’m convinced once again that this will continue to be a beloved Hotel for years to come! I will definitely visit again!

We stayed for two nights on our trip to Okinawa. The Room was spacious and clean, which left a great impression. Since we got drenched in sweat during the trip, being able to use the coin laundry was a big help. Breakfast was satisfying—we could even have taco rice and (a small amount of) Soki soba. A few minor points that could be improved: - The elevator signage inside the Hotel was a bit hard to understand; I didn’t realize until the second day that there are vending machines besides the ones on the 1st floor. - There were no loungewear in the Room, and it took me a while to notice that you can freely pick them up from the elevator hall. - I only realized at the washing machines that detergent must be purchased at the front desk, so I had to make an extra round trip. None of these were really the Hotel’s fault—just things I would have figured out if I’d thought about it—but having them clearly noted would have been convenient.

Chokotto Villa was amazing. A cozy Room. Delicious, hearty meals. A coastline nearby where you can watch a spectacular sunset. A sky full of stars seen from the open-air bath. (We were lucky—it was especially clear that night.) I’ve stayed at many private rental villas, but having everything on one floor is a huge help for seniors who may need the toilet during the night (lol). (It’s quite common to have the bedroom on the second floor and the toilet on the first.) I think it’s also great for families with children. It made our Awaji Island trip truly satisfying. Thank you very much.

For our first night in Kyoto, we wanted to go bar-hopping, so we chose the RIHGA Royal Hotel near the station. There is a free Shuttle Service at certain times, but it’s only a 7–8 minute walk. From the welcome to being shown to our Room, the service was excellent. A fully separated bath and toilet is a must for us, so the Japanese-Western style Room was perfect. The bathtub is very spacious—big enough even for men to stretch out. It also fills quickly, which was great. Another plus: two bath towels per person, two face towels per person, and bathrobes. The Room was clean and very well maintained. We checked out early in the morning, and they handled it kindly and smoothly. This is a Hotel I’d love to stay at again.

The Taiza crab we were most looking forward to was served in our preferred style and at our own pace, allowing us to fully enjoy it. The other fish dishes besides crab were also incredibly delicious—the meals were outstanding. The shuttle service to the station was very helpful

It was my first time visiting Shodoshima. The two-meal Plan at this price is an excellent value. Sashimi was served with five different ways to enjoy it (local soy sauce, olive oil, etc.), and every dish made with local ingredients was very satisfying. The Facility feels a bit dated, but the Room, the bath, the views from the restaurant, and the wonderful service from all the staff greatly increased our overall satisfaction. Thank you very much for taking care of us. I would like to stay again.

Both dinner and breakfast were buffet-style, with more variety than we could possibly try, and we were very satisfied. The location right in front of the sea offered amazing views, and we would love to stay again. It was a little disappointing that there was no morning bath on weekdays, but the facilities were spacious and clean, and overall we had a wonderful, fulfilling stay!

The Room’s open-air bath was wonderful. The meals were more than enough for women; men might find them a bit light, but for those who drink alcohol, I felt they were sufficient. I think it would be better if breakfast times were staggered. The staff’s sense of distance also felt very comfortable to me. Sorry to mention this at the end. Thank you very much.

We traveled with my son’s family and looked for a Room where we could all stay together. The Room was spacious and had a jacuzzi, which everyone enjoyed. The dinner course was also excellent, with very tender meat. One disappointment was that there was no washing machine in the Room. There was a coin laundry, but we had to keep track of the time and go pick up our laundry, which made it hard to fully relax. Since this is a Resort Hotel with many beachgoers, I hope this will be improved.

The view of the Sea of Japan was breathtaking. From the Room window, I could lie on the futon and watch the sunset—pure happiness. Dinner was an incredible feast of seafood, and it was truly blissful. The most delicious dish was the grilled dancing abalone. The luxurious course left me so full I thought I might burst. The only reason for -1 star was that the indoor bath water was too hot for me. The open-air bath was just right. All of the staff were kind and courteous, which made our stay very pleasant. Thank you very much for taking care of us!

From check-in until our car left the Ryokan, the staff naturally came outside to welcome and see us off. I think there are very few Ryokan or Hotels that do this. The preparation of the futon bedding and in-Room dining was pleasant, and it made for a wonderful stay. Every dish was delicious, and the portions were very satisfying. If I had one request, I would be happy if there were a bit more local vegetables—especially for guests in their 50s like us. This may be a matter of preference, but I felt the miso soup would have been even better if it were served a little hotter. Similarly, I would have preferred the water in the large public bath to be slightly hotter. What impressed me most was how thoroughly everything was cleaned. Even at expensive Hotels or Ryokan, you often notice dust in hidden areas or peeling wallpaper and small flaws here and there, but everything visible was very clean. Precisely because it isn’t brand-new, it felt especially comfortable. It was my first stay here, but I feel like I got great value. My only concern is that many of the staff seemed to be around my age or a bit older, so I hope this Ryokan will continue for many years and be passed on to the next generation so guests can keep enjoying it. Thank you very much.

Even though it was late at night, we were warmly welcomed after contacting in advance, which we truly appreciated. It might have been part of a special campaign, but the next morning when we departed, we received lacquered chopsticks from Obama as a gift. We were genuinely grateful and would love to stay again if given the chance.
