I visited again. Even in the summer heat, many people were sightseeing in Onomichi. This time, I rode the ropeway for the first time—it climbs quickly and feels very thrilling. At a museum along the way to the Hotel, there was an exhibition about cats, which was truly soothing. At the café, I enjoyed sweets with their recommended pairing. Dinner featured a variety of ingredients that paired perfectly with wine. Breakfast was so delicious that I had a second helping of rice. And for the first time, I enjoyed the letter room. Since I used to study calligraphy, time flew by as I wrote various things with a brush pen. It was also fun to see other guests’ creations. Spending summer in Onomichi while sharing different people’s memories was wonderful too.

We arrived by rental car. At first, even with Google Maps we couldn’t find the Accommodation’s parking area and were a bit confused, but when we called the Accommodation, a staff member came to pick us up right away. Everyone on the staff was kind and pleasant. The meals were also delicious. No matter the time of day, the view from our Room of Onomichi’s townscape and Senkoji Temple was truly beautiful. We did notice some noise from footsteps in the hallway and doors opening and closing, but we were still able to rest well. We would love to stay here again next time we visit Onomichi. Thank you very much.

It was a very clean Hotel, conveniently located just over a 10-minute walk from the station, with a variety of restaurants nearby. The bath was a large public bath; the men’s side had an open-air bath, but it seems the women’s side did not, which was a bit disappointing. The happy hour from late afternoon into the evening was also great—unlimited alcoholic drinks and four snack options were included.
