시코쿠의 온천 지역 × 시설・설비의 평가가 높은 호텔·료칸

I visited during the rainy season, a time I don’t usually choose. Both dinner and breakfast featured exquisite dishes that felt refreshingly cool to the eye and captured the early-summer atmosphere, lifting the gloom of the rainy skies. What makes this Accommodation truly exceptional is being able to enjoy outstanding cuisine at any time, thoughtfully crafted to reflect the season through sight, aroma, and taste. I also deeply appreciate the warm, friendly hospitality shown by all of the staff.

Unfortunately it rained, but thanks to that we were able to relax at the inn on the day we arrived. As other reviews mentioned, the staff were wonderful—every single person greeted us with a smile and provided excellent service, so we had a very comfortable stay. The next day, when the rain let up, we were able to take a walk and enjoy Dogo Onsen. Above all, the meals were outstanding! Not only was the food delicious, but the tableware was beautiful as well—both my elderly father and I finished everything. It’s a bit far from Osaka so we can’t visit often, but this is an inn we would love to return to. Please continue being such a lovely place. The staff’s hospitality is truly top-notch!

As our daughter reached the age for her Coming-of-Age celebration, we stayed here as a family of four to mark the occasion. From the very beginning, we were impressed by the warm welcome and being served matcha tea and sweets. Although it’s close to Dogo Onsen, the property offers a beautiful, spacious, and tranquil atmosphere—truly a luxurious annex just as described. There are famous paintings and exquisite Lladró ornaments throughout, making every moment feel blissful! The Onsen was wonderful as well! We would love to visit again on another special occasion.

Conveniently located near Dogo Onsen Station, the view from the Room was great, with Dogo Onsen Honkan and Matsuyama Castle visible. The window glass had a pattern, so it would have been even better if it were completely clear. The Room was clean and comfortable, with a nice sense of cleanliness. The large public bath on the top floor was also very relaxing, and I especially recommend the open-air bath! We used the buffet for both breakfast and dinner, and there were many local dishes and unique items—everything was delicious. Dinner was a half-buffet, but we were very full, so I thought it would be nice to have a Plan with buffet only (it may already exist...). Also, I’d be happy if there were mandarin orange juice at breakfast! It was also great to have live piano music in the evening.

We stayed for one night and two days with my elderly parents, who have concerns about cognitive function and eating, as three generations. Thank you for preparing a space where all of us could dine together; we were able to enjoy our meal at a relaxed pace, which we truly appreciated. My father, who usually has trouble eating due to dental issues, finished both dinner and breakfast completely, and our whole family was thrilled. We apologize for cutting the food into small pieces during the meal and for any lack of proper table manners; thank you for your understanding. Since the futon area is slightly raised, we were worried about nighttime trips to the restroom, but it was fine. Even after returning home, we can’t stop talking about how wonderful the meals were—the room, the bath, and the staff were all excellent. Thank you very much.

In Uchiko, Ehime Prefecture. After driving from Kochi, we arrived at the hotel; as soon as we pulled up, a staff member came right out and guided us. After an exceptionally smooth check-in, we didn’t add any sightseeing at all—we spent our time simply enjoying the hot springs, the special guest room, and reading. As it was a weekday right after Silver Week, there were hardly any overnight guests or day-use bath visitors, and we were able to savor the luxury of feeling as if the entire property belonged to just the two of us. Above all, dinner far exceeded our expectations. My wife was deeply moved by how delicious everything was—so much so that after the meal she even asked both the chef and sommelier to sign our menu. Not only was each dish outstanding in itself; its elegance on refined tableware conveyed a sense of care and intention in every plate. By candlelight at our table, we were able to take our time and fully enjoy both the food and drinks at our own pace. The in-room hot spring bath was also memorable—especially the haiku placed alongside it, which added a quiet resonance to our time in the water. Personally, I felt this inn’s appeal lies not in extravagance but in being able to truly enjoy “the luxury of doing nothing.” Visiting on a weekday allowed us to appreciate that value even more deeply.

The views, the people, the space, and the food—everything was exceptional. I felt instantly healed rather than gradually. The sunset was beautiful, and every staff member’s hospitality was heartfelt. The cooking that brought out the best in each ingredient was outstanding, as were the delicious broths. Not only dinner but also breakfast was truly elaborate and carefully prepared. I could go on forever, but in short, it was wonderful. Thank you very much.

I was satisfied with everything. The dishes made with olive oil were delicious, and the room with a view of the calm sea was wonderful. Shodoshima is famous for its stone, and it is used generously throughout the island. It doesn’t feel cold; instead, it feels warm and comforting. The staff greeted us with smiles, and it was an inn that made us think, even before checkout, “We want to come back.”

The entire hotel felt refined and stylish, and the room was spacious enough to be very comfortable. The bath wasn’t crowded, and I was happy with the amenities and the ReFa hair dryer! The records—one of this hotel’s signature features—seem to divide opinions, but we borrowed a variety of nostalgic records and really enjoyed them. Please don’t get rid of them! At night, we enjoyed craft beer and a mikan sour at the complimentary lounge, along with various snacks we picked up from nearby shops. Wearing yukata and borrowing a cute basket for a stroll was also an experience you don’t often get. In the morning, we went to Dogo Onsen Annex Asuka-no-Yu. Online it said there would be a 15-minute wait, but we got in right away and it was quiet. It was crowded at night, so morning might be the best time to go!

The parking lot is spacious, so there's no need to worry about parking even if you check in late. The Room and Facility were excellent, allowing for a comfortable stay. I would love to use this place again if I have the chance.

This was my first stay, and I was very satisfied. There is a supermarket and a drugstore right next door, so shopping is easy. I saw several guests buy dinner and enjoy it at the free bar. I went to a nearby udon restaurant and enjoyed seiro soba and battera, then picked up 20% off deli items at the supermarket and enjoyed drinks in my Room. Both the Room and the large public bath were very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was easy to enjoy, and the staff service was excellent. It was a functional and truly wonderful Hotel.

Check-in at 9:00 PM Check-out at 6:00 AM I didn’t have much time to relax, but I was very satisfied. A young male staff member at the front desk assisted me politely and professionally. Thank you very much. The parking lot was spacious, which was very helpful.

This trip was our first time staying with my son and his wife and our nearly 2-year-old grandchild, a group of five, and we stayed at Hotel Tsubakikan. They prepared two adjacent rooms for us, which made it easy to go back and forth. With beds and tatami mats, our grandchild could walk around freely, which was great. The buffet meals were delicious. The restaurant staff were very kind and quickly provided a chair for our grandchild. We went to get food many times, and each time they promptly cleared the used dishes from our table, so we could enjoy our meal comfortably. The hot springs were wonderful—both my daughter-in-law and I went three times. We weren’t sure how it would go since it was our grandchild’s first hot spring experience, but they behaved well in the bath. We all made happy memories and are grateful to the staff. Everyone said they’d like to come again. Thank you very much.

The Room was clean, the breakfast was delicious, and the large public bath was great. However, since there was only one elevator, it got very crowded during peak check-in and check-out times, and we sometimes had to wait quite a while, which was a bit inconvenient. Also, the hallway was hot—I wish there had been air conditioning in the corridors as well. Still, considering the value for money, it’s an excellent Hotel! I’d love to stay here again when I visit Imabari.

We decided to stay based on the Reviews, and it was an even more wonderful Accommodation than we expected. The bath in our Room was so great that we never ended up going to the large public bath. The meals were excellent in both presentation and taste, and we were able to fully enjoy autumn. Personally, it was my first time trying chestnut chips, and they were delicious. Since we dined in a private room, it was also helpful that we could set the room temperature to our liking. All of the staff were kind, and we had a very pleasant stay. We’re looking forward to staying again someday.

Iya Bijin is an Accommodation famous for soba. I had carelessly forgotten this, and since my son has a severe buckwheat allergy, we made a last-minute request to remove all foods related to soba. During our stay, they took great care with the meals, and both dinner and breakfast were wonderful—such as ayu sashimi and dekomawashi—and my son ate so much it surprised even us. Of course, he had no allergic symptoms at all. Thank you very much.

I’ve had more chances to stay at other Route Inn hotels recently, so this time in Matsuyama I chose Route Inn instead of my usual Accommodation. It’s a little far from Okaido, but there are plenty of izakayas nearby, and it was great that there is an on-site parking lot. The breakfast was delicious, and the staff were very pleasant. I didn’t really need breakfast, so it would be appreciated if No Meals Included could be selected.

Staying here was absolutely the right choice. The staff were wonderful, the food was excellent, and the views were beautiful—we were very satisfied. These days, there are fewer chances to chat with hotel staff wherever you stay, but Kazuraya felt warm and welcoming, which we really appreciated. We’d love to visit again. Thank you very much.

Everything—the cuisine, the Room, the Onsen, the garden, and the music—was wonderful, but above all, the hospitality of the president, the proprietress, and all staff was exceptional. We truly felt their attentive care in every detail. This time we stayed for two nights, spending one night each in the Western and Paragon Rooms. The open-air bath while enjoying the view from our Room and the sound of the vintage audio system were both superb, making it a stay that truly let us forget everyday life. We’re not sure when it will be, but we would love to try staying in the remaining two Rooms as well.

After watching the Awa Odori, our family of four stayed here. We couldn’t find anywhere in Tokushima City with two Rooms available, so we chose this place by elimination—but we were very satisfied. The Rooms were connected Rooms, with two Rooms linked by an internal door when opened. The beds were bunk beds, which our kids found really fun and enjoyed a lot. The bath was available until 9:30 a.m., so even though we checked in at 11:30 p.m., we could relax and enjoy it. The water had a slightly salty quality and the temperature was just right—excellent overall. Breakfast focused on organic ingredients and was served buffet-style; everything was delicious. We hadn’t heard of this Hotel before, but it was clean and very nice. We’d definitely like to stay again if we have the chance.
