Staff were so friendly and accommodating. The location is a short walk from the train station and to the arcade, a few steps from the waterfront. The room was so much bigger than I was expecting, clean and quiet with a beautiful view of the water.

Didn't eat at hotel. Good location easy to get to ferries. Lots of food places to choose from. 5 to 10 minute walk

Compared to the prices for normal size rooms, we found this one a bit too expensive.

We had the “Suite with ocean view “ which was very large and comfortable. The location is perfect to start the Shimanami Kaido bicycle tour from the harbor. The hotel is part of the “same-day-luggage-delivery” of Sagawa.

Cannot find a fault with this place.

The location was central to all my needs before starting the Shimanami Kaido. The hotel is basically next to the train station, a 7-11, the bike rental place and the ferry to use at the start of the course. Room was spacious, with a water view, powerful AC and high water pressure. You can also walk, or take a cable car up to the main temple park with a short walk. Solid breakfast buffet and easy luggage shipping to my next hotel at the end of the ride.

I have stayed in many many hotels in Japan over the years and I'm taking the time to review this one because it was excellent. First and foremost all the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. It really was great service with a very genuine smile. Second, for the size of the hotel and the room cost, the buffet breakfast was great - lots to choose from and all of good quality. And finally, an excellent location close to transport and the sea. Do pay the extra and get a sea view room, the working port is a marvel to watch over a cup of tea.

The staff was super nice and welcoming, they helped us with our luggage shipment and food recommendations. The Ramen across the street is amazing! The room had a great view, big in size and very very clean. Great facilities. Very close to the ferry. Decent breakfast too!

Not applicable, everything was satisfactory

Love the location - proximity to JR Station and intended attractions within walking distance. Ground floor restaurant serving breakfast is small but absolutely functional - breakfast spread is good. Also used the laundry room which was well maintained and very clean.

Breakfast was just okay, didn't get a comfortable sleep (might be because I started to get sick, though), only one elevator.

Great location convenient to the bus, trains, and shimanami kaido ferry and bike rental as well as sightseeing spots. Nice staff, good views, clean, and relatively spacious room. They will also help you forward your luggage to your next hotel if riding the shimanami kaido.

The view was nice, but the windows had that safety net and allowed just a narrow opening. Suboptimal. Why are you so afraid of visitors opening windows? We come to Japan to enjoy our stay, not to jump from heights or something.

The room was fresh and clean, not super-small. The breakfast was exceptional for an inexpensive business hotel. There was that nice lady in the restaurant who really made my stay brighter - she was welcoming, helpful, and did something useful all the time, like a busy bee caring for people around. Like, it's the first time I see someone of a business hotel staff put so much passion into their routing job, applause!

Nothing I can think of

Very friendly staff, close to the station, fantastic location close to the bike rental and ferry. We got room with a view over the water so we were really happy with just sitting and enjoying it.

Honestly nothing. I was very satisfied with the stay.

I stayed at this hotel a night prior to my Shimanami Kaido cycling trip. The room was extremely clean and comfortable and I had a lovely view of the river. The breakfast buffet spread was excellent with both international and Japanese cuisine, salads, and desserts. On day of my cycling trip, I woke up early to rent the bike I wanted and was able to park it at the hotel before finishing my breakfast and setting off.

Spacious, comfortable, all the usual amenities/facilities, friendly staff and very close to station/town activities. Great view of the seaside/bridge too.

The hotel is well located and the staff are excellent. We had a mix up with our room on arrival but they sorted it out very efficiently. The breakfast caters mostly for Japanese visitors. Parking is very close but you have to pay for it. For UK visitors, the hotel is similar to a Premier Inn in style but much nicer in how it feels to be there. Onomichi is a brilliant place to visit and the Sakura Hotel is a great place to stay.
