Shimanami Kaido Cycling Road Pet-friendly Vacations

An excellent hotel in a convenient and great location. Views to the castle available.

The staff were so lovely and the hotel had lots of little nice touches that made it a pleasure to stay at. Dogo onsen was next door and the hotel provided towels and yukata to take. The room was quiet and peaceful. I didn’t dine at the hotel but enjoyed the free sake bar and there were lots of options for food nearby.

Great room, meals, location; comparatively cheap

It’s a love hotel!!! It must have been grand and glorious in its days! Rooms are spacious, with seating area, large tv, closet, fridge, microwave , kettle, MASSAGE CHAIR, separate paid bar with liquor and snacks. Big powder room, separate bathroom that feels like private Onsen, with jetted tub and smaller tv, shower. Toilet is separated with bide. Big selection of toiletries and cosmetics, towels are great quality, pjs are provided. Breakfast is included. One can preorder from a menu. It’s delivered on reserved time in a private compartment by the room’s door. Soundproofing is EXCELLENT- can’t hear the street noise or neighboring rooms! Air conditioner is older, but works and it’s quiet. There’s a dehumidifier as well. Staff is discreet, almost invisible (has to be called on phone at reception to show up?). There’s elevator. Halls are spacious and bright, with grand decor. THE BAD: run down from its past glory, DIRTY, hair everywhere, suspicious stains on the bed skirt and furniture. SMOKING ROOMS! We have to open windows and run the air conditioner to compensate, as well as dehumidifier.There’s free supply of vast porn selection (censored:() on the big and small tvs. Vibrator and condoms are beside the bed. Mattress is very firm. One can decide to enjoy the huge room and all amenities and choose to ignore the bad, so can have fun and feel young and naughty…again:) Or turn around and find another hotel, with tiny and dirty rooms, but reputable, for the same price- up to you!

A museum by Tado Ando changed for the right reasons into a hotel far away from no where... the air conditioning is so loud that makes you very uncomfortable sleeping with it’s grilling sound. If you’re a golfer, heavy sleeper and wished to stay a night in a museum that’s the place to be

A beautiful traditional ryokan inn experience. Loved the in-house hot springs bath.
