Although the weather felt like the rainy season had returned, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the observation room (Gekko). Because the building is located on a hill, we had a clear view of the Shimanto River and the surrounding mountains. The Onsen water was excellent, with a slightly silky texture. For dinner we chose Sawachi cuisine featuring local dishes, and this time it was served as individual small plates rather than one large platter. Overall, I think it was a truly wonderful Accommodation. However, please drive carefully—the Accommodation is reached only after an extremely winding mountain road (narrow roads). Also, although it looks like it’s only about 5 minutes to town (convenience stores, etc.) on the map, as mentioned above it’s up in the mountains, so at night it’s pitch-dark and very dangerous! If you want to bring alcohol or cigarettes (the smoking area is outside the building), I recommend buying them before check-in. One more thing: they lend you samue loungewear, and it was made from incredibly comfortable fabric—perfect to wear. (If they sold it, I definitely would have bought it! It really was that comfortable.) I’ve stayed at several places near the Shimanto River before, and I can genuinely recommend this one. Lastly, thank you very much to all of the staff.

We truly enjoyed time passing slowly and peacefully. Last time we had breakfast only, but this time we also had dinner; we were surprised by how much there was, but everything was delicious. Thank you very much. I don’t know when it will be next time, but when our family can all

All I can express is my gratitude. Even though it was our first visit, we were touched by your thoughtful attention to every detail, the surprise celebration for our wedding anniversary, and the many people who helped us at the pool. My husband can swim but has difficulty walking, and we truly felt warmly welcomed. In the evening, we dined at Restaurant Sefino. Most guests seemed to be visiting from outside, but if you stay here, it would be a shame to miss dining at this restaurant. It was a truly memorable experience.

This was my first stay. The front desk staff were very courteous. There were complimentary drinks on the first floor, and the ice-cold draft beer was excellent. The Room was spacious and had a massage chair, so I could relax, but I couldn’t adjust the air conditioning—when I tried to operate it, it turned off. I filled the in-room Onsen right away and enjoyed a very pleasant bath, but my parent, who has difficulty walking, said the step was high and felt scary. Since everything is flat around it, I thought a handrail would make it safer. I understand this may be difficult as it is not barrier-free. I was looking forward to dinner. Everything was delicious, including salt-grilled ayu and chicken hot pot, and even the white rice was excellent. The children’s lunch plate was also generous in portion size, and my child happily bit into a big fried shrimp. However, there was one thing that concerned me. My child’s dessert (a mousse-like item topped with fruit) that came with the lunch plate was taken away partway through for some reason. Since I happened to be on the phone at that moment, I wondered why. After that, as if nothing had happened, the removed dessert was served to an adult instead, and jelly was placed for my child. I assumed it had been a mistake, but I believe an explanation should have been given. Taking something once served to one person and then serving it to someone else seems inappropriate etiquette-wise. At the very least, some explanation when bringing out the jelly for my child would have been appreciated. Overall it is a wonderful Accommodation; only the dinner service response bothered me. Thank you very much.

We stayed in the Luxury Suite as a family of four. The Ryokan slippers were a bit hard and uncomfortable to wear. Other than the distance and cold walk from the Room to the large public bath, everything was excellent. The rental yukata and hair accessories were lovely. On snowy days, we recommend avoiding the Yamanami Highway. We are grateful for the front desk's kind advice on the best route home.

I’m satisfied and would be happy to stay again if I have the opportunity.

We were worried about the outdoor pool in the extreme heat, but the sea breeze kept it cool and our grandchildren enjoyed it. Snow crab was served at dinner, which surprised everyone since it was summer. They also grilled steak for us, and it was delicious. The watermelon was sweet, and there were also chocolate fondue and ice cream. The breakfast buffet was wonderful too, especially while enjoying the ocean view. We would love to stay again.

I really enjoyed the Hoshino world. It has a strong, distinctive style (in a good way). Since Taketomi was a more traditional, mellow experience, that may be why it stood out even more this time. The deep-sea-like reception area, Rooms without an entryway, and a dining table with a sink were all surprising in terms of the facilities—and uniquely fun. There are many different activity programs as well. The performers in “Hamauri Ashibi” were bright, entertaining, and wonderful, and Ms. M’s “Garden Tour” guide was warm and enjoyable too. Going forward, the key will be how well you can communicate and share with guests that your interpretation of “Hoshinoya luxury,” including personal service, is not the conventional approach. When you’ve become the undisputed “top tier,” please let me stay again!

Overall, it was excellent for this type of Accommodation. Dinner was a bit more than we could finish, but the seafood was very good. However, it was disappointing that the crab had very little meat.

I took a short one-night trip nearby with my grandchild to enjoy the pool and the Onsen. Both were very pleasant and relaxing. The pool changing room had a musty smell, and I think it would be even better if it were renovated to be cleaner and more resort-like. If the poolside area were also updated with more of a resort atmosphere, it would improve even further, and I would likely visit more often. The dinner buffet was well thought out, and the appetizer-style dishes were delicious. I would also be happy to see tempura and sushi offered. The breakfast buffet had fewer options than expected, so I’d like to see a bit more variety and creativity. Overall, I was satisfied.

From arrival at the parking lot to departure, the hospitality was outstanding. The ocean-view Room with a private semi-open-air bath was also wonderful. We were satisfied with everything, including the complimentary hot stone sauna, wine, and 11:00 check-out. They even prepared a lantern for us when we went out for a walk nearby—truly excellent service. The only slight disappointment was that the open-air bath switched between men and women, so we couldn’t use it the next day.

I stayed here to see the sagaribana just before the typhoon. This was my second visit. The hosts’ warm, unpretentious hospitality is wonderful—it really makes you feel like you’ve come to the island. The stars in the night sky were beautiful, almost unbelievable with a typhoon approaching. I’d love to stay again. Thank you very much.

The Hotel is within walking distance of Oshidomari Terminal. Breakfast and dinner were served individually, so we could enjoy our meals at a relaxed pace. The food was delicious, including sea urchin, salmon roe, sashimi, and hokke. All the front desk staff were kind, and even though we came from Rebun Island, they also arranged Shuttle Service to the airport on our departure day. The service was courteous and attentive.

The ocean stretches out right in front of you, and the sunsets were so beautiful they felt truly cleansing. All of the staff were kind, making this a very comfortable Accommodation. Above all, the meals were delicious, and we enjoyed plenty of fresh seafood—an unforgettable, happy time. We’d love to come back again soon to relax.

I stayed for three nights. (Used a smoking Room.) It was a good Hotel. (It has a retro, Showa-era vibe.) Being close to the station is very convenient—excellent. (Free parking.) Request: I would have liked cotton swabs among the amenities. Comment: The convenience store is far, so it’s better to come prepared. However, there are several restaurants nearby (including izakaya). Overall, I think it’s a very good Hotel. I would like to stay again if I have the opportunity.

We stayed here to reunite with my son’s family from Osaka for the first time in a while. The weather turned out great, and we enjoyed the pleasant sea breeze, a stunning sunset, and plenty of nature—our kids were absolutely delighted. Collecting seashells on the beach, roasting marshmallows over a campfire, and fireworks made it a truly satisfying day. The staff member was very friendly and helpful, and we really appreciated how kindly he treated the children. The BBQ meat and breakfast were both delicious. Thank you for such a wonderful time—we’d love to visit again if we have the chance.

Following last year’s stay, I loved the large public bath, the meals, and the Room here, so I came back again. The Onsen temperature is gentle on sunburned skin and feels incredibly relaxing—I ended up soaking four times this trip! And the dinner portions—everything was delicious, with a very generous serving per person, so I was completely satisfied. The Room has been renovated and is beautifully clean. I also personally love the view from the Room. The seaside in front of the Hotel is a great place for a morning walk.

I stayed for one night. The Room had an ocean view. Despite being November, it was warm thanks to the sunlight. The building might be old, but everything was thoroughly cleaned and felt very comfortable. The drink bar's used glasses were frequently collected, keeping it always clean. During the bath inspection time, the staff worked quickly without being intrusive and even asked about the water temperature, which was very soothing. The water temperature was perfect!

Both the price and the service were exactly what I was looking for, and I was very satisfied. The complimentary photo session also resulted in wonderful photos, making it a great keepsake. Thank you very much. I would definitely like to use your service again if I have the opportunity.

Although it was a No Meals Included stay, we had a very comfortable time. Thank you for your courteous and kind service.
