We stayed for one night and two days. The interior was beautiful and spotless. The food was delicious, and the staff’s smiles and hospitality were truly wonderful.

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.

I had an important engagement and stopped by your city for the first time in four years on my way back from a business trip, and stayed one night. Because I felt more wear and tear than expected at the flagship Hotel where I stayed on my previous visit, I was looking for another option in the convenient city center when I found this Hotel. It is close to the station, with easy access to limousine buses, local buses, and taxis, so I hardly felt any of the transportation inconvenience that can be common in regional cities. As it is newly opened, the Room was clean, and the view from my Room—overlooking the islands of the Seto Inland Sea and all of Imabari—was wonderful. (It would have been even better if the windows were a bit larger.) Breakfast offered a relatively wide selection and tasted good as well, and I also really appreciated the complimentary welcome drink upon arrival on a hot day. The large public bath was spacious and clean, and being able to gaze at the night view through a large, beautiful window helped me unwind from the day’s fatigue and feel refreshed. It’s great that Imabari now has such a good Hotel. One point to note—not as something good or bad—is that there seem to be many international guests. I work in an international field so it didn’t bother me at all, but some people may feel unsettled seeing many overseas visitors in places like the lobby or large public bath in a regional city like Imabari. That said, during my stay there were no guests with poor manners.

Not only is it close to JR Imabari Station, it is also the final stop of the Shimanami Kaido bus from Fukuyama, making it very convenient for getting around. There is also a large, popular spa nearby for cyclists, and discount coupons are available. I would love to stay here again as a base for exploring the Shimanami Kaido.

My spouse and I stayed in a Deluxe Double. The bed was spacious enough for an average Japanese build, and we slept very well. There are vending machines inside the Hotel where you can buy alcohol and simple snacks. As for parking, the space next to the Hotel is narrow and fills up quickly, but there is a slightly larger area about one block away. I was worried after checking Street View whether there really was free parking, so it would be nice if the website provided clearer guidance. However, when we parked on the street that day and asked at the front desk, they kindly explained it to us, so it wasn’t a problem. It’s a very typical Business Hotel, and it was comfortable. If I had to mention one downside, it would be that the TV is fixed to the wall and its HDMI port is only accessible from behind, so I couldn’t plug in my laptop or smartphone to display anything (even though there’s an input button on the remote...).

I stayed here on May 28 while cycling the Shikoku 88 Temple Pilgrimage. The building has a covered bicycle parking area immediately to the left of the entrance, which was very helpful. Taking the elevator to the second floor, I found a spacious front desk area with a cohesive gray-toned interior that was spotless and well maintained—my impression was of a very well-managed Hotel. Since I arrived early, I left some luggage with them and visited Temple No. 57 (Eifuku-ji) and Temple No. 58 (Senyu-ji) before check-in time. Senyu-ji in particular is beyond a steep climb of over 2 km, so being able to store my luggage was a huge help. After check-in, I also enjoyed the sauna with auto löyly, the large public bath, and the third-floor lounge offering complimentary snacks, coffee, tea, ice cream, and local sake (evenings only). I stayed without meals, but there were supermarkets and roadside restaurants nearby (Yoshinoya, MOS Burger, etc.), so it wasn’t an issue at all. If my departure hadn’t been so early in the morning, I would have liked to try the Hotel breakfast... My only complaint was that the laundry machine fee of 300 yen and dryer fee of 300 yen felt slightly higher than at other hotels; otherwise everything was high quality. Given how affordable it was as well, I was extremely satisfied.
