The location was great, right next to the sea. The food was also very delicious. Since he is not a fisherman, men may be dissatisfied with the volume. The tangerine juice was also the same price as outside and the service price.

Accommodation days: 2024.04.23-2024.04.24Plan: One stay, two mealsSummary: A friendly restaurant and hotel, experience the Japanese-style accommodation seen on TV, with great views. I want to bring my family here next time!On the first day of riding the Shimanami Kaido, we stopped at the restaurant Seto. The hotel is not located next to the road. You have to walk down and around to the seaside before you can enter. I searched for it for a while.It was a weekday so it seemed that the venue was reserved for us. The room is large, with a space for making a bed and a sofa area. Outside the window is the famous Funazuri Seto on Hokkaido Island. The room is not new but clean and comfortable. The landlady can speak a little English, and I can communicate smoothly in broken Japanese (probablyThe place for dinner was another tatami room. We chose the most luxurious set menu, which had more than a dozen dishes. The fish and shrimp were all very fresh. This was the most luxurious and sumptuous meal we had ever had in Japan.When we returned to the room, the landlady had already made the bed for us. If we are not used to hard pillows, there are soft pillows in the cupboard for us. The whistles and vibrations of the boats on the beach were a bit loud, but I slept well because I was very tired.The scenery is very beautiful. This is my most satisfying accommodation experience. Thank you Seto Restaurant

Dinner was very luxurious and the quantity was huge. The molting crab was truly exquisite.The location was good and I could see the ship from my room.However, when I drive close, the navigation system shuts down even though I haven't arrived yet.This is an issue with the navigation system, not the inn.

Used for dinner with business partners. The seafood course is both generous in quantity and content. Course 6,000 yen. I was satisfied.

Wow, what a fabulous place! Right on the Seto Inland Sea where you can watch ships go by and observe the intense tidal action. Dinner was the best we’ve had so far in Japan. Sashimi, soft shell crab, 2 cooked fish dishes, a delicate seafood custard soup, baby clams, finished with fresh gold kiwis. This chef knows seafood.Don’t be surprised by very basic bathroom facilities. A small sacrifice for such a genuine Japanese experience. Thank you!

Spacious room on the waterfront with wonderful views. The light on the water current is special. Dinner was the highlight - a feast of local seafood including fried crab.
