I was impressed by the kindness and was satisfied with everything, including the hot springs and breakfast.This is an excellent hotel in all aspects, including price, facilities, and service.This hotel is only worth stopping by for those visiting the whale museum or riding a bicycle, but it is definitely recommended if you are visiting the area.

One of the best hotels I’ve stayed in Japan!Excellent service, excellent room with amazing view, very clean and spacious, very good dinner and breakfast with piano playing. The environment surrounding the hotel is quiet, best to get away from the city. So, no convenient store around. If needed, you may need to drive.

The rooms are somewhat old but cozy. The star of this hotel is the delicious food, great service and the amazing view.Combined with the pool for the kids, a simple yet nice onsen (two types), this hotel definitely deserves thumbs up!!My wife said she was very happy with everything and wants to go back! I can’t agree more.And by the way, it is next to a dolphins and whale museum with shows and everything!

We stayed here because it was near the dolphin swim venue. It's next to the whale museum.I stayed in a Japanese-style room without meals.The old-fashioned room had a nostalgic feel.The view was beautiful and the room was clean.The bath and toilet are separate.The floor of the toilet is slightly sloping and my partner's sense of balance is a little off...Other than that there is no problem.There are no convenience stores or supermarkets nearby, so buy what you need before you wake up.It's a nice and quiet place.

The building feels old, but the breakfast was luxurious and good, so I think it would be better to have breakfast included.This time I didn't have dinner, but next time I would like to try dinner as well.I think the cost performance is good.There is an open-air bath, but it was mediocre.There is a hot spring nearby, so if you are driving, I think it would be a good idea to go to the hot spring.

I really like the separate open-air bath.This alone gave me 80 points.I don't think this hotel is very friendly to families with babies. (I stayed with my 9 month old child.)■RiceI chose the A course for dinner.To be honest, there aren't many. I can choose bread or rice.They quickly brought bread to me without asking me anything. Since I was just eating a fish dish, I didn't have any doubts about whether it was an accompaniment, but when I asked later, I was told that I could choose.Caution is required.■BathroomThere is a separate open-air bath and a large indoor bath.The bath is nice, butIt will be difficult because there is no crib or diaper table.The indoor bath has a large bench-like chair. The surface looks like tatami.Also, all the shower heads were ReFa.■RoomI was allowed to use the Japanese-style room.Maybe the cleaning wasn't done very well.There were cup noodles falling, and there were handprints and lip prints from the child who had stayed in the room before on the window glass...The bathroom attached to the room was too smelly (lol)However, it felt like I was staying at a relative's house, and it had a relaxing atmosphere.■OthersFireworks can be set off on the premises.To clean up after yourself, just ask the staff and they will prepare a bucket for you. They also lent me a chukka man.■LocationThe best.Right next to the whale museum.You can even hear the squeaky sounds of dolphins in the hallway. You can also see the dolphin swimming 🐬
