Kurashiki Station Universal Hotel

This was my second stay, following my visit in March.It’s close to the station and easy to find.If you cross the intersection just a few dozen meters away, you’re already in the Bikan Historical Quarter—an excellent location.I checked in after 8:00 pm, but everything went smoothly and I was able to have dinner right away.The large public bath with an attached sauna is in a slightly unusual location, but it’s clean and very comfortable. There are also coin-return lockers (100 yen), which made me feel secure.

Getting both breakfast and dinner at this price is a huge help.It’s a bit far from the station, but it’s also nice that it’s close to the Bikan Historical Quarter.However, the bed and pillow were too firm, and I woke up several times during the night.My body was really stiff the next day.If you can tolerate that, I think it’s a very good place overall.
