You can see Awaji Island, Akashi Kaikyo Bridge, and a spectacular view from the guest rooms, so it's well worth the trip.

Respect for the Aged Day three-day weekendBBQ with 7 family members from 3 generationsI stayed there for one night.Setre Maiko isA location where you can see the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge up close. It felt like a resort and I was able to relax.Take a break with drinks and snacks in the lounge.at check-inThe canelé each person received wasWarm it up in the toaster in the lounge.BBQ at an outside tableBreakfast is basically room service.The ingredients used were from Awaji, and the portion sizes were just right.The bathroom was spacious and convenient.SDG's were being implemented and amenities were minimal, but I didn't feel any particular inconvenience.Hopefully, if there had been bath salts, I might have been even more excited.Overall, the hospitality of the staff, the size of the room, the food, and the lounge were of a high standard.No wonder the repeat rate is high.Memories of summer vacationI've done one more thing.

A hotel where university students stay. It looks luxurious in the photos on social media, but it actually looks like a business hotel. Front staff doesn't greet you. I went there by car with a small child, but they wouldn't take my luggage with me at check-in. I thought the staff at business hotels would be more attentive these days. There is no motivation or affection. I think it's fine for college students to go and take pictures, but to be honest, I don't think I'd want to stay there in the future.

I'm already 38 years old, but I stayed here about 18 years ago at this time. 🤣It was a wonderful hotel back then, and I'm glad it's still going strong! 🥳At that time, I was growing taller, but I have now become an older man. 🤣Although I don't have much vacation, it is a memorable hotel that I would like to stay at again someday.

The view from the room is great. The food is also delicious! !It can be a pain to walk from the station during the summer, so I think a bus would be more comfortable.
