시모노세키 × 온천・목욕 평가가 높은호텔·료칸

My spouse and I stayed for one night. It would have been even better if our Room had a sofa, but the bath was indoors and an Onsen, already filled for us. The staff member who guided us also provided a thorough and helpful explanation. The meals were wonderful both dinner and breakfast, and we truly felt pampered. Since we dined in a private room, we couldn’t eat while looking out at the sea, which was the only disappointment. We have stayed at many Hotels, but this had the best food of all. We happened to visit Shimonoseki this time and found this Hotel by chance, but next time we will travel specifically to stay here.

This was my first time staying at a Hotel in Shimonoseki. The Room was clean and I had a comfortable stay. I will definitely stay here again.

The Facility is old, but the rates are affordable, and since the meals are kaiseki cuisine, we enjoyed them at a relaxed pace. Above all, the Kanmon Bridge and the Kanmon Strait can be seen from the Room, bath, and dining hall—absolutely wonderful. We were able to take our time enjoying the view of various ships coming and going. We will stay again.

I stayed overnight in Shimonoseki and was looking for an Accommodation where I could truly look forward to the meals. Since there was a Plan that included both fugu and beef, I made a Reservation right away. The building is a long-established culinary Ryokan with a sense of history, and I heard that locals use it for weddings and funerals as well as to enjoy seasonal fish dishes. The fugu was served as tessa (a Kansai term), with thick slices and an exceptional sweetness. The Miyazaki beef was also tender, and the combination was easy to enjoy. The dishes may look simple at first glance, but each one is carefully crafted—far beyond anything an amateur can judge. The staff were polite yet relaxed, offering thoughtful, unobtrusive service that made my stay very comfortable. That said, I wouldn’t recommend it to travelers whose main priority is the Facility. As a long-established Ryokan, the building clearly shows its age in a good way, and you can tell it has been carefully maintained. This was my first stay here, but I would definitely like to return the next time I visit Shimonoseki. Thank you very much.

I stayed here again this year following last year. The lack of an auto-lock was not an issue for me. It was sufficient and satisfactory. There was plenty of parking space, and I could also park my motorcycle.

The Reviews were good, so I wasn’t particularly worried, but above all, what helped me the most was the late checkout! I’m not the type to spend every minute of my sightseeing time rushing around, so I was truly grateful to be able to relax until 11:00. By the way, check-in was also early at 14:00, so I left my luggage right away and went sightseeing. Very convenient! I was able to use both the washing machine and dryer for free (detergent: 50 yen). I get cold easily and couldn’t fall asleep at first, but there were blankets in the hallway with a “Please feel free to take one” sign, so I was able to sleep. Breakfast was a reasonable portion size, which really helped since I don’t eat much. Other good points have been mentioned by others, so that’s all from me. Thank you very much for your hospitality!

For our Kyushu girls’ trip, we chose Mojiko—introduced to us through “Convenience Store Brothers”—as our final-day destination and stayed in the Premium Suite at Premium Hotel. From the moment we stepped into the Room, we were thrilled by the panoramic view of Mojiko right in front of us and the spacious, comfortable Room! After enjoying carefully selected drinks, cheese, and finger foods at the exclusive lounge Tempo, we finally fulfilled our wish to walk across the Kanmon Straits, then took a ferry back to right in front of the Hotel. It’s worth staying here for this Hotel alone! Next time, we’d love to enjoy a meal at one of the Hotel’s restaurants as well.

Facing the Kanmon Straits, it was soothing to watch the ships passing through all the time. The meals were carefully selected and delicious. It was also great to be able to see the straits from the bath; however, the bath was quite crowded with many local residents, which surprised me a little. As a request, I think it would be relaxing if you could use some aroma fragrance or incense in the corridor where the Room is located.

The Room was spacious, and the bath and toilet were separate. The amenities were well stocked. There were also bath salts, so I was happy to be able to relax in the bath. The Hotel is conveniently located near Karato Market and shopping facilities, so we enjoyed exploring on foot. Thank you very much.

This Hotel is conveniently located near the station, making it easy to get anywhere without worrying about exact schedules. The property was clean, and I felt comfortable and at ease during my stay.

This was my first stay. It was a few minutes from the bus stop (Buzen-da), which made getting around by bus very convenient. I stayed while helping with a move, and soaking in the bath helped me recover from the fatigue. I really appreciated being able to relax in a spacious bath instead of just the Room’s unit bathroom, even though it was dimly lit. Since I only needed the Room for sleeping, the small size didn’t bother me much. I also looked forward to the delicious breakfast each morning. They let me know when my meal was ready, which felt very welcoming. The staff were very kind—thank you so much. I would like to stay again.

I had to go to Shimonoseki on short notice to support my kendo club at a national tournament, and this was the only Hotel I could finally find. The service was solid, and the washing machine was especially helpful. The only issue was that there was a single cigarette butt on the Room floor when I arrived. The nearby izakaya Okamoto was also wonderful. I’d like to stay here again when I visit Shimonoseki.

This time, I stayed two nights on the Mojiko side, then took the ferry across to the Shimonoseki side for one night. It was a very sunny and hot day, but Karato Market, the Karato Ferry Terminal, Kaikyokan (Shimonoseki Aquarium), Hai! Karatto Yokocho (a small amusement park), and RISONARE are all lined up in the same area, so it’s great that you can enjoy everything within walking distance. On top of that, the Hotel offers plenty of kid-friendly activities such as the pufferfish pool and pufferfish beach, and the little ones looked like they were having a wonderful time. I also saw families staying with three generations together—this seems like an excellent choice for family trips. As for me, it was a solo trip for one night, so I treated myself to a full pufferfish Italian course at Otto Sette in the dining room (the aperitif was served on the terrace at sunset before moving into the dining room!). I also enjoyed a relaxing resort stay in a new and comfortable Room while taking in views of the Kanmon Straits. In the morning, I started my walk before dawn along Arukaport Promenade by the sea in front of the Hotel. With cool sea breezes and gradually brightening skies over the Kanmon Straits, I walked past Karato Market to Sister City Plaza at the end of the promenade to watch sunrise. Then I returned along the same path back to the Hotel and joined “Sea Breeze Stretch” on Namunami Terrace with its beautifully kept lawn. After that came an incredible breakfast buffet with so many options it was hard to choose—I enjoyed it right up to my limit. At PUKU PUKU’s breakfast buffet, kawara soba, seafood marinated rice bowls, and French toast are must-haves—go hungry. Even though it was only one night, it felt incredibly fulfilling. I’d love to come back—and now I want to visit other RISONARE properties too. Also, even if you make a Reservation here, it’s convenient that you can log in on their official website using your Reservation Number and arrange meals and activities online in advance.

There was a payment issue, but the front desk staff handled it very well! I got a little lost on the way from the station, but I managed to get there. If you consider it a typical Business Hotel, I think the Facilities are reasonable. The breakfast rice porridge was delicious! If I go to Shimonoseki again, I’d like to stay here again.

I have used this Hotel before, and it is a good one. The breakfast is delicious, especially the wide variety of tasty bread options.

It’s a standard Room, but it felt spacious! Most amenities are provided, which was very helpful. The parking garage goes up to the 7th floor. There’s no elevator, but it’s roomy (the ocean view from the 7th floor is beautiful, so if you don’t have much luggage, I recommend parking on the 7th floor). It’s within walking distance from Shimonoseki Station and Sea Mall Shimonoseki—perfect for a casual stroll. If you follow Google Maps, the route to the Hotel might be a bit hard to understand. It’s behind a main road and on a one-way street. Right outside the back exit of the Hotel there are some adult-oriented shops lined up, but there were no touts, so I think it’s fine to walk (the parking area is closer from the back exit). The breakfast toast was really delicious!

Although it shows a bit of age, the Room is clean and easy to use. Above all, the breakfast buffet has a great selection, and everything is delicious. Shimonoseki is famous for fugu. They even offer fugu skin in vinegar—just what you’d expect from a Hotel in Shimonoseki. Highly recommended.

The Room was excellent, and the drink service was satisfying. However, possibly due to the rain, the bathroom sink drained slowly, and check-in was difficult and took a considerable amount of time.

I booked through Yahoo Travel, expecting a regular Hotel, but it was unmanned with remote identity verification via video call for check-in. Additionally, this was my oversight, but there are two similarly named Hotels: Grand Base "Mojiko" and "Mojiko Ekimae," which almost caused me to follow the wrong directions on Google Maps. The biggest issue for me was the lack of pajamas. While this might be common in accommodations like private lodgings, I had booked with the image of a regular Hotel in mind and found it inconvenient upon arrival. It would be helpful if such details were more prominently noted. On the other hand, toothbrushes, towels, shampoo, a microwave oven, and a water dispenser were provided. The location is excellent—within walking distance of Mojiko Station and the retro district—with supermarkets and drugstores nearby. Incidentally, I bought pajamas at one of these drugstores. The Facility is new and clean. Although I noticed that there was no door for the toilet area, it was quiet and comfortable overall. The price is reasonable; once accustomed to this style of accommodation, such Hotels can be quite appealing!

We stayed in a family-type Room. The Room was spacious and clean, making it very comfortable. Having a washer and dryer was especially convenient. When our child forgot something, we contacted the property and they responded immediately, which we really appreciated. If we visit Mojiko again, we would like to stay here again.
