Classic Japanese Luxury Hotel
Catering to the well-heeled in the Ehime area, this hotel was built by the local ship building company. No details were missed in the design of this hotel. Spectacular view sunrise view over the Imabari port from my 17th floor room. Windows don't open, so air a little stale, however spacious rooms make up for it. Swimming pool and hot springs.

It's a nice hotel and stuff was very friendly. It was a bit unfortunate that there were some miscommunications with them and got a smoking room, instead of non-smoking room.

The best hotel in town, and the tallest building, too. Very swanky, unexpected in this dull industrial town. Top flight onsen, fancy restaurant, marble everywhere. Boy t no one there. A bit sad, but we had a fine stay after our bike ride from Onomichi.

Loved the large room and the onsen was very good. It was only 10 minutes walk from the train station and easy to find as it’s the tallest building in the area.

Pretty good service. Besides the typhoon and every business closed because of that, we had a wonderful time. The breakfast was really good. Fantastic view!! Relatives stay at the 8th floor and we stay at the 17th floor, both had amazing views. The hotel has here and there places (details) that needs to be fix, like wallpaper or some stains but overall is in good condition.

Fabulous!
The hotel was great in ALL respects, but the Hotels.com's communication was bad. First, the confirmation mail from Hotels.com said there's no check-in counter at this hotel and that I'd have to call in advance. There was actually a fancy check-in counter, but good thing I called ahead. I was first told there was no reservation under my name. They eventually found it under a different last name. Second, I had reserved a twin with breakfast, but they didn't have a record about our breakfast reservation, despite that fact that I had paid Hotels.com the full accommodation including two breakfasts. In any case, this is a fabulous hotel at which even the current Emperor had stayed. The whole place is beautiful, the room large and clean, the people very nice, close to the station, and very inexpensive. The miscommunication may have occurred because hotel people's English is not very good (I am a native speaker of Japanese, and spoke to them in Japanese.) It'll probably be a good idea for Hotels.com to have someone proficient in Japanese to handle reservations at hotels in small cities in Japan.

Amazing hotel. Bike friendly. Terrific amenitie
This was a superb hotel. Surprised to have such a huge room. I’ve stayed in many hotels in Japan though the years and this was just as large as North American rooms The bathroom was superior to Most North American hotel rooms. The separated shower / bath had a shower bar to spray water laterally and/or from above. Staff was friendly and spoke English quite well. (Not all staff but the front reception I had, at least). I rode the Shimanami Kaido. (Wonderful 50mi/80km bike route from Onomichi to Imabari, but not so great during the summer...too hot and humid). I was able to bring my bike into my hotel room. That was greatly appreciated. Gave me piece of mind with a rental bike. Although the area was safe, still it was nice to have my bike within my room.

Probably the best place in town.
The room at this hotel was quite spacious and clean. We ate at the Japanese restaurant where the food was amazing not cheap but really good. General surrounding area of the hitel very bqsic. Close to the JR station if you are using a JR rail pass.

Best in the area!
I've pretty much given this hotel a perfect score. I know that its not going to be the best in an international setting, however you won't find anything better in Imabari. Firstly, very nice, very helpful staff that spoke English at the desk. Secondly the hotel, while not brand new, is in great shape and looks really nice. Stay included a Onsen/Sento which after 110km+ on the bicycle it was a real welcome relief. The room was large, spacious (good even by western standards) with a single (maybe kingish size) bed. Breakfast the next morning was good too. The staff even booked a nearby izakaya (restaurant) for us for our dinner on the arrival night. Loved my stay in this place. OH! One other huge plus - BICYCLE FRIENDLY if you are doing the Shimanami Kaido - you can take your bike straight to the room without packing it up.

Spacious upmarket hotel
Hotel was in a quiet part of town. The room was spacious and the staff was friendly. Imabari was different to the other large urban centres we visited in Japan, such as Tokyo and Nagoya, it reminded me more of cities and regional towns in Australia; more space, less hi-rises, more car-centric. It was interesting to see a different side of urban Japan.

A good staying experience
The hotel may be a bit old but it is very clean and tidy. The high block provides a good view of the bridge. The food at the restaurant for dinner and breakfast is excellent with good service. Overall a good experience.

A very nice stay
Had a pleasant overnight while doing the shimanami kaido. The price was a bit expensive for the quality of the room, but the hotel was nice enough, with a very adequate ofuro. Breakfast was great- lots of selection. Ate dinner at the teppanyaki restaurant and it was delicious.
