Hotel Mancho: A Traditional and Elegant Inn

Thank you for taking care of us for three days.Just as the Reviews said, the hospitality was excellent with guests of all ages, and it felt warm and welcoming.Both dinner and breakfast offered a wide variety of dishes, and we were satisfied with the ingredients as well.The optional Sado rock oysters were truly “milk of the sea”!If I had to mention one thing, I would have preferred slightly smaller portions with higher quality.It was our first time in Sado, and it turned into a very satisfying family trip.

The older male staff work very efficiently. When we arrived by car, several of them came right away to help with various things, and during busy times they stood by the elevators to guide guests to the dining area and baths, which left a very courteous impression. The building is old, but it is well cleaned throughout, and the retro Showa-era atmosphere was also nice. The sunset sinking into the sea, seen from the semi-open-air bath in the large public bathhouse, is breathtaking. It was a shame that the water temperature was so hot that I couldn’t soak for long.Amenities are minimal. Personally, I think more people would prefer hair ties than shower caps...It seems there are evening options such as a Sado Okesa show and a free bus tour to see the Gold Mine illuminations. I couldn’t join this time due to scheduling, but I’d love to next time.I was happy that all the tissues placed in places like the Room and changing area were soft tissues from a well-known brand.It felt like service one level above what you’d expect for this price range.
