Business Hotel Akayane

I stayed for two nights and tried both the Matsuyama rice porridge and the sea bream broth ochazuke—both were outstanding! I can’t wait to have them again.Next time I’m staying for three nights, and I’m torn about which one to order twice.

It is very close to JR Matsuyama Station. I stayed in a uniquely laid-out Japanese-style room. It’s about 3 tatami mats in size, but it’s fine if you just need a place to sleep. The unit bath was very clean, as if it had been renovated. Because it is on the corner of a main road where streetcars run, the noise from the trams as well as motorcycle and car exhaust can be quite noticeable. If you are sensitive to this kind of noise, you may want to take precautions. The Wi-Fi was fairly unstable, and depending on where my pillow was positioned, there were many times when I couldn’t get a signal.
