The hotel needs a little superficial work, like painting, to freshen it up.

The rooms were spacious and the location is lovely.

Location is far. There is no restaurants nor stores nearby.

There is pick-up service. Hot spring is good.

The local buses come infrequently and you really need a rental car for the location of the hotel to get the most out of a trip. The hotel staff were friendly and polite, but we found it strange that they gave us coupons at check-out to spend on their souvenir shop when they knew we would be in a rush to get on their shuttle bus. It would have been nice if they gave it to us sooner before check-out and we would have been happy to buy some things from their souvenir store while we actually had lots of time. It is a very minor thing though and not a complaint.

The onsen had nice views and some of the food was excellent, especially the asari tsukudani. The staff were mostly polite and friendly. It was also nice that the hotel provided a shuttle bus.

This is located very far from the main ferry port. There is a shuttle bus service, but it only runs a few times a day. So I found myself waiting for about an hour to catch the shuttle bus, and similar waiting on the way off the island. Still, it's a nice service they offer so you don't have to drive/have a car on the island. This is an older building and has some wear and tear that comes with that, so manage expectations accordingly. There was a mildly odor in my shower, but I didn't mind it terribly. There are not a lot of restaurants in this part of the island, and during the off season the few that are there were closed. So I would recommend using/booking the hotel restaurant out of convenience.

When I booked this I did not realize there was an onsen on the roof with views of the water. I just saw the affordable off-season price and was in the area. So it vastly exceeded my expectations. Staff were generally very nice and tolerant of my poor Japanese skills, though some were less tolerant than others. (Not holding that against them as a visitor here). I think every room has a view of the sea, it was beyond charming. They also rent out e-bikes, which I did for one day. Essential for getting around the island as the buses do not run frequently.

Nothing - I would 100 stay there again!

There were beautiful views everywhere, in the lobby, from all the rooms and from the elevator. The Onsen was lovely and the hotel was super thoughtful about providing all of the things someone might need to have a great first Onsen experience. The staff were also very kind and accommodating.

The private spa was really nice - outdoors but private and wooden. Breakfast had so many choices and very tasty! Japanese room was large and great ocean views - such a relief after Tokyo crowdedness.

Room was very spacious. Onsen on the last floor with the view over the bay is the biggest highlight of this hotel.

The information about private onsen on English leaflet is wrong, we missed the opening hours

Good breakfast, helpful and nice staff (speak simple English), nice onsen

The facilities are a bit dated but on the other hand the kindness and professionalism compensates it largely.

Excellente breakfast and amazing staff! The access to the Onsen was a great surprise - it as great!

Breakfast was so so.

A comfortable hotel on Shodoshima with sea view. Room is clean and tidy.

The pool was closed, even though it was almost 30 degrees. It is only open in July and August, they should make that more clear. The building is a bit old. They should make the beach more accessible, now you can barely reach it and it is a bit dirty beach. Futon bed is really thin, so quite hard. Overall a bit expensive for what you get.

Beautiful onsen with amazing view! Also great views on the sea in the room. Breakfast is good and nice extras like a sweet in the room and icecream after the onsen (in afternoon). Large room.

The variety for dinner buffet can be more. We spent 2 nights there and both dinners and breakfasts are pretty much the same for the two days.

The staff at the reception are super helpful. They always try their best to provide useful information on transportation and very patient in answering our questions.

nothing.

Good View, free hot spring, free shuttle bus between the tonosho port and hotel, very friendly staff who gave us a big help to the convenience shop, and delicious breakfast and dinner. We enjoyed the stay and will come back to the hotel next time.

If you don’t eat raw seafood or deep fried foods, skip the 6600¥ dinner buffet (lesson learned!). Also, outdoor pool doesn’t open until late July.

Old-school resort hotel with retro bubble era elegance and classic hospitality. Shuttle bus toAngel Road and various ports available with advance reservation. Loved the yukata corner and gift shop. Great onsen and spacious room with outstanding views.

The dinner buffet is very delicious, but it may need more variety of ingredients

What impressed me most was the assistance of the service staff I happened to meet a young girl from Taiwan who helped us with the language barrier and was very patient in helping us translate and solve the problem! There was also a young Japanese boy who helped us with the hot spring temperature and finally helped us carry our luggage to the shuttle bus. I was very impressed by his perfect service.

Exaggerately overpriced: the hotel was probably nearly fully booked, but to charge 300 usd for a room usually sold for 100 is abusive.

Nice onsen, nice facilities

The staff was super friendly and the hotel facilities was top notch. Really easy to rent a car at the hotel to experience Shodoshima.

That we couldn’t stay more!

Amazing view onsen, world-class “omotenashi” service, spectacular food (morning & dinner buffet is amazing-strongly recommend half-boarding options since there’s really no good restaurants around and cheaper to book it online than adding it at the hotel), free drink (coffee & tea)and free shuttle bus service from every port (reservation needed by a day before)
