전국 × 비사문천 관련 사찰 참배에 편리한 숙소식사의 평가가 높은 호텔·료칸

This was my first return in about a year. I stayed for two nights and three days, and it was still a great Hotel. The staff’s service was excellent as well. In particular, I was impressed by the attentiveness of the restaurant staff at breakfast. They worked efficiently, replenishing dishes and clearing used plates promptly. Because they were constantly checking the food, there was no concern—common at other Hotels—that fewer items would be available if you went later. This is a Hotel I would like to stay at again.

This was our second stay at Umekiya. We stayed once before and it was so great that we chose it again. The owner talked with us about why we picked this place again, as well as products made on Awaji Island and shops run by local creators, and we were able to actually stop by. They also share recommended spots around Awaji Island. On our second visit, we used a nearby super sento. It was extremely crowded with locals, so while Umekiya doesn’t have a bathtub, if you want to take your time in the bath, it’s better to use Umekiya. The Wi‑Fi in the Room (which didn’t work well last time) had been improved, but the best part is spending time enjoying the atmosphere in the shared space on the first floor while having free drinks. There are two shared toilets, but my family wished they were separated for men and women. It’s also hard to tell whether someone is inside; even though one of them was vacant, I was knocked on and asked to hurry up. It would be helpful if it were easier to see whether each toilet is occupied or not. If we come back to Awaji Island again, this is a place we’d like to stay at.

Dinner offered a wide variety of dishes, including local ingredients and Hatto-jiru soup. Breakfast was a Japanese and Western buffet with soba noodles and yogurt as well, and everything was delicious. The staff were kind and courteous. The Hotel is old but well maintained. It’s quite a walk to the Onsen, but there are rest areas along the way, showing thoughtful consideration. In the Room, having two kettles (hot and cold) along with tea snacks was a welcome service.

Because it is close to To-ji Temple, we chose to stay here. The front desk staff kindly provided detailed guidance on the parking area, advised us that we might need an umbrella based on the evening weather forecast, explained how to get to sightseeing spots, and gave a thorough overview of the Facility. We stayed here for sightseeing in Kyoto with my father and had a very comfortable stay. The breakfast was also delicious. The large public bath was wonderful as well—it felt great after a long day of walking. In the morning, my father and I were able to take a walk to To-ji Temple, and we enjoyed a great trip in Kyoto together as parent and child. Thank you very much. For these reasons, I give 5 stars across the board.

I had a zazen meditation experience and tried shakyo (Buddhist sutra copying). It was very relaxing. The zazen session was mainly for international guests, but I still enjoyed it and found it a great experience. They kindly mailed me the shakyo materials they had forgotten to give me, along with a letter—thank you very much. I was able to relax at such a thoughtful Accommodation. I also received a leaflet map of the temple district, but I didn’t have enough time to visit many temples, so next time I’d like to set aside more time for that as well.

The staff were courteous, and it was reassuring that the cups for coffee and toothbrushing were disposable paper cups. Overall, I was satisfied. However, one thing bothered me: the bathroom door is frosted glass and slightly see-through. It’s fine for family, but with friends it can feel awkward if you can faintly see someone sitting on the toilet. Since it isn’t visible from the room due to the layout, I could live with it. Other than that, it was truly comfortable, and I’d like to stay again with my family or on my own.

The property was wonderful, with the hostess and all the staff being attentive and considerate. We are truly grateful for accommodating our unreasonable requests. The room and hallway were well-maintained, and the garden exuded a dignified beauty. Thank you for taking care of us.

I found this Accommodation while looking for a place with a Japanese-style room where my college friends and I could sleep together, as we were getting together for the first time in over 20 years. It was clean, and the staff were perfectly fine. The large public bath may not be an Onsen, but it was spacious and had an open-air bath and a sauna, which was great. Dinner was a sukiyaki course; the beef was high quality and delicious. It was a great Accommodation that suited our purpose perfectly.

Communication was quick, and when I asked about things I was curious about—such as whether certain requests were possible—they responded politely and thoroughly. Because it is a two-story property, it didn’t feel cramped like a Business Hotel, and we could relax comfortably. The toilet (with a changing area) and the bathroom are separate, both clean, and we were very satisfied. It’s also within walking distance from Kamakura Station, and you can walk to nearby temples and shrines as well, so we were happy with the location. I would definitely like to stay here again when I visit Kamakura!
