Don‘t fall for this trapThe whole hotel is an overpriced joke.Pro‘s:free shuttle to around the museumBeach view from the roomsArt installations on the hotel probertyCons:- Food in Japanese restaurant is a health risk. Fish is served at a terrible quality (sashimi etc.) and most likely thawed in the afternoon as everything on the plate tasted the same. Out of 8 courses, 2 were good.- very small portions in western restaurant, if you’re still hungry which you most likely will be you can order an extra meal at an outrageous price.- Rooms and infrastructure in general in poor state (bad smell, signs of usage overall). Ants in the bedroom

Tao Ando designed minimalist oddball and brutalist concrete hotel. Memorable, nice views, good service. Suggest you pack a dinner and take it with you because you are trapped there and it's expensive to eat, with limited choice.
