When I made my Reservation and shared my Room preferences, you kindly arranged a high-floor Room with an ocean view, just as requested. Thank you very much. Also, when my schedule changed due to the typhoon, the front desk staff responded flexibly—thank you sincerely. I will definitely stay at Smile Hotel again next time. Thank you very much.

The accommodation facilities are new and very clean, providing a comfortable stay. Each guest receives two bath towels and one large towel for their room use; additionally, fresh large towels are available every time you visit the public bathhouse. In the open-air bath of the pub

This was our third stay. For dinner, we chose the Local Bounty Kaiseki Plan with a large fried shrimp. Now we only have the Chita Peninsula and Ise Bay Bounty Plan left to try, and we would definitely like to choose it next time. We were able to relax again this time. Thank you very much.

It was a wonderful Room where we could soak in a free-flowing hot spring bath while enjoying the spectacular views of Mt. Hakusan, soothing our tired bodies and minds from everyday life. The meals were also excellent, with delicious dishes served in a private dining room. The building feels a bit old, but it was clean, and it was a comfortable Hotel for us seniors. It is an Accommodation we would like to visit again.

Honestly, I didn’t have very high expectations before my stay, but it turned out to be extremely satisfying. First of all, the ocean view from the Room and the Onsen was wonderful, and I was able to watch a beautiful sunset in the evening. At night, instead of a pitch-black sea, I could see the distant lights of Aomori City, which created a very atmospheric scene. I was able to relax and unwind while quietly gazing out at the calm sea. The building was clean throughout, and my Room had been renovated and was very comfortable. The staff were also kind, which left a strong impression and made my stay truly pleasant. The Tsugaru shamisen show in particular exceeded my expectations—powerful performances that felt uniquely Aomori. For dinner, the pork shabu-shabu felt a little tough to me, but the dishes were thoughtfully prepared overall and offered satisfaction beyond the price. For just over 10,000 yen per person, being able to enjoy this view, the Onsen, the service, and the Tsugaru shamisen show is very appealing. It’s not a flashy luxury Ryokan-style place, but it’s a Hotel I would recommend for anyone who wants to spend quiet time while looking out at the sea. I’d love to visit again and be soothed by seasonal views from both the Onsen and my Room.

As the Hotel is located on the upper floors of the relatively new (2-year-old) Chunichi Building, it is connected to the station underground, so you can get around without getting wet. Since it’s a commercial building with several restaurants in the basement, we also recommend relaxing and spending time at the Hotel. There are department stores nearby as well, making it a convenient location for dining in a lively area and for sightseeing anywhere. The Room was spacious, and the bathtub was deep enough to relax. I’d like to stay again if I have the chance.

The front desk and staff welcomed us with warm smiles. The building is old, but it was very clean, with no unpleasant odors, so we had a comfortable stay. Best of all, even though it seemed like guests were staying next door, we didn’t hear any noise at all. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious with light seasoning. The all-you-can-drink option was included as well, making it an excellent value. We grilled turban shells and shrimp on the tabletop stove, and in the morning we grilled horse mackerel. We’d definitely like to come again!

This was my second stay. Breakfast was a buffet of bread and salad, plus a choice of one main dish from three options, and it was delicious. Since the Accommodation is a renovated warehouse, the Room is a little on the dark side, but very clean. I would like to stay here again when I visit Onomichi. Thank you very much.

Last year, my 101-year-old mother-in-law passed away, and I invited my elder sister and niece, who have been feeling a bit lonely since then, to stay here. We celebrated my sister's birthday during dinner with a toast, and the staff surprised us with a Happy Birthday song and cake. Seeing my sister's happy smile made me feel so glad I chose this Hotel. Although we couldn't see the sunset this time due to rain (unlike last time), we will definitely come back again!

The staff were very friendly, and the Onsen was great with pleasantly salty water. The meals were exactly as shown in the photos—fresh and delicious—and the portions were generous. I would like you to prevent cigarette smoke from the smoking area from drifting over.

The private bath in the Room is spacious and includes a washing area, making it truly exceptional. The meals were also delicious, as expected from a Ryokan specializing in cuisine. If I may add one suggestion, it would have been even better if laundry facilities were available ye

I enjoyed a luxurious glamping experience right in front of the ocean. The air felt a bit dry due to the heating, but the breakfast delivered in a basket—made with local ingredients—was truly delicious! It also seemed that the neighboring KAMOME SLOW HOTEL is an affiliated Facility, so I’d love to stay there next time as well.

I made a Reservation for my mother, who loves buffets. Based on the Reviews, I wasn’t expecting much from the Facility, but everything was great: cleanliness was good, service was good—more than that, their consideration was outstanding. After I mentioned that my mother has difficulty walking, the staff at the dining reception spoke to us and looked after us, which made our stay very comfortable. Thank you so much. Top-tier buffet-focused Hotels tend to be attentive like this, but some aren’t, so I really appreciated it. The little extras—like ice cream after the bath and morning lassi—also felt like a big plus. The bath had a slight chlorine smell, but it was clean; there was a shampoo bar and plenty of basic skincare amenities as well. If you’re looking to cut costs, I’d rather have shower caps than disposable hairbrushes—and if you clearly state in advance that brushes aren’t provided, that would be fine too. The food wasn’t particularly novel, but everything was delicious and satisfying. What especially stood out—as many others have said—was the grilled eel kabayaki!! I was amazed by the quality. At this price point it’s unbelievable: large eel with great texture and rich flavor. We’ll definitely come again!

An open location along a park facing the sea. The twin rooms offer an ocean view, while the single rooms have a land-side view overlooking a warehouse district, which is not bad. Considering the price, meals and room amenities are reasonable, and having a large public bath is wonderful. It's within walking distance to EAS (iias), so shopping and dining are convenient, making it very comfortable for a cozy stay.

The attentive service from the staff, fresh seafood from nearby waters, the exquisite flavors of the perfectly prepared dishes, the spacious and clean Room and large public bath offering a breathtaking view of the Sea of Japan, the gracious greetings from the hostess often overlo

Since it is connected to a shopping center, we didn’t have to worry about parking, and even on rainy days we could unload our luggage from the car without getting wet and enter the Hotel. The fish at breakfast was delicious.

The sunset view from the bath was absolutely stunning. Displaying more photos of the sunset within the accommodation might be appreciated by guests. Even during this season, I stayed in a room on the pine side but could still enjoy a great view of the sunset. The open-air bath wa

Since we stayed here for golf, unfortunately there were no meals. It is a traditional old-style building, but it was more than adequate; it also has an Onsen and EV charging facilities, so we did not feel inconvenienced at all. At this price, it was about one-third of what you would pay in Atami or Hakone, and we were very satisfied.

Thank you for taking such great care of us the other day. The Room and meals were excellent in every way. We were especially impressed by the all-crab feast. We were very satisfied with the many delicious dishes, including medium-fatty tuna (chutoro). We look forward to visiting again with our family to enjoy another Premium tour.

I love these cottages and keep coming back. This time we stayed in Yucca, and my elderly mother really liked it because she could feel the warmth of the wood. Relaxing in the jacuzzi while looking out at the sea helped us unwind, and the BBQ on the terrace was excellent—fresh se
