야마카케이 주변 × 해산물 요리 자랑 숙소 순위만족도 평가가 높은 호텔·료칸

The hotel was perfect in terms of the view—ocean-view rooms on the upper floors only. However, I was bothered by the noise from planes heading to/from Kansai International Airport and the high-speed elevators, which is common in tall hotels. It seems flights do not operate between 11:00 PM and 6:00 AM, and the elevator noise wasn’t too loud, so I was able to sleep during that time. If you can sleep on public transport, it probably won’t be an issue at all. Requesting a room farther from the elevators might help a little, but when I stayed at Prince Hotel Ikebukuro before, it didn’t make much difference, so I didn’t request it this time. Breakfast had a wide variety of options—I even had an ikura rice bowl in the morning. The in-room bath was clean, but I’m deducting one point because there is no hot spring facility.

The Onsen water quality was excellent. The seasonal kaiseki cuisine also lived up to its reputation and was wonderful. Nearby, many guests were enjoying river activities and BBQs, which was fun to watch as well. During the wait before check-in, we took a short walk in the mountains and found it cool and comfortable even in summer. It has become one of the places we would like to visit again if we have the chance.

I used this place for a reunion, and the sunset view from the Room was truly beautiful. The next morning, the weather was great, and the ocean view was stunning. The staff who assisted us responded to numerous requests and questions with kindness and without hesitation. The food was not only delicious but also included thoughtful touches like ice cream service, which made it very satisfying. The bathwater was quite hot (personal preference), and I thought having curtains in the changing area would be even better, but everything felt clean overall. The beautiful scenery and delicious food became truly memorable experiences. Thank you very much!

This was my fifth stay. Despite the high price, it was the worst so far. What was good: The Onsen hopping was as good as always. What was bad: At dinner, I ordered a draft beer, but it took a long time to arrive. When I rang the bell to call staff, the female attendant said, “Was it not served yet?” in an extremely unfriendly manner. Also, although I requested the same Room as last time, I was given one where the sink and toilet were in the same space. There were also steep steps inside, which was difficult for elderly guests. There were no power outlets near the bed, which was inconvenient. The TV couldn’t play YouTube (even though I have an account), which was very disappointing. It felt like an ordinary Room with only a massage chair. I will think twice about staying again next time.
