Takamishima Island Hotels

"Small but cozy. The container is equipped with bath tub/shower, toilet, microwave, refrigerator and kettle. Friendly staff but front desk only opens from 8am to 10pm. Coin laundry room also closes at 10pm. Traffic noise outside can be heard but ear plugs are provided at the front desk as well as ready to eat meals, coffee and tea. "

"Very nice traditional Japanese hotel within 5 minutes walking distance from the Tourist Information Center if you took the public bus. I stayed in a Japanese style room with ocean view and slept on futon laid on tatami. Dinner and breakfast were included in the room rate, and the food was pretty good (kind of in fine-dining style). They have shuttle bus service from and to Fukuyama Station so be sure to take advantage of it. The welcome drink that they serve when you check in was nice."

"This is an old merchant house that has been nicely remodeled as a hotel. It's smack in the middle of Tomonoura's historic renewal district. The room I had was spacious, comfortable, and nicely designed. This hotel requires some pre-planning: getting the shuttle bus from Fukuyama, making sure basic needs are met (no onsite staff, except at breakfast time).

"It is surprisingly beautiful and reasonable place to stay. Food was absolutely fantastic."

"娘の受験のため宿泊しましたが、とてもきれいでスタッフの方の感じも良かったです。 リーズナブルな料金でしたが、フロントで軽食やドリンクのサービスがあってとてもありがたかったです。また機会があれば宿泊したいです。"

"A very nice hotel at a very fair price. We did make an error in not checking the location. It is about 30 minutes out of central Kurashiki. This required a local train which runs every 30 mins or so. There were some restaurants close by and we both enjoyed the Onsen baths. So swings and roundabouts but enjoyed our stay."
