"A beautiful room in a beautiful hotel. So very close to the JR line station (200 meters door to door), easy access to the rest of Japan via the Shinkansen Trains, a great hub for exploring Western/Southern Japan. Only 30 minuets to Hiroshima, 2 hours to Osaka, and under 5 hours to Tokyo."
"It’s a stone throw away from the station. Initially went to store my luggage since I arrived earlier before check-in and both my luggage were sent straight to my room when I came back in the evening. Hotel may look dated but everything works well and it’s a comfortable stay."
"No parking! Make sure to be prepared. About a half mile walk back after finding a parking lot, otherwise no issues
Staff was very friendly and helpful"
"This was a really lucky find. The hotel was located in a really peaceful and tranquil location by a lake with the added bonus of having an onsen. Traditional Japanese breakfast was included which was a lovely experience.
Would definitely recommend it "
