Book a Gunge Resort

"Great staff. Nice property. Delicious food. It reminded me of visiting Japan as a child and going on onsen getaways with my cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents. "

"The room is too hot. With the window open, train and motorcycle are very noisy. "

"出張族にはちょうど良い部屋でした。残念なのは朝食があまりにも簡素でした。"

"A great value hotel, with small but well appointed rooms"

"Wonderful location. Amazing views of the night sky, the ocean, and Osaka. The staff were incredible, and the onsite restaurant was top notch."

"Parking is easy and secure. Very clean. Safty box in the room. Nice lounge for everybody. Great staff. "

"Lovely room with a balcony. Nice staff. Amazing buffet at the hotel with all local produce. "

"I booked a room with a view of the sea and it was definitely worth paying slightly more for it. The rooms are modern and comfortable with a sliding screen that can be used to separate the bed area from the rest of the room. Free coffee and tea available downstairs, plus water and instant coffee provided in the room daily. A breakfast plan does not seem to be available, so I bought breakfast in the local supermarket (a Lawsons is even closer). Higashiura bus terminal is on the other side of the road which makes for good travel connections (there is a taxi rank at the bus terminal and I also used Uber). Staff at the hotel were helpful and many spoke basic English. Higashiura is less busy than other areas of Japan with the sea, rice fields and the countryside nearby. Some streets have no or limited street lights - not really an issue as Japan is very safe, but be aware of traffic. Two things I’d like the hotel to improve 1) to use the wifi you seem to have to register with Marriot and the login process initially confused the VPN I use 2) to use the washer and dryers you have to download an app, let it connect to bluetooth, then pay by apple pay, credit card or some other payment methods - you can’t use coins as the slots have been taped up. Feels unnecessarily complex. For luggage forwarding, I asked and if I understood correctly, they only support cash on delivery to the next destination. In summary, a very nice hotel and I’d be more than happy to stay there again."

"It’s far from the noise of the big city. "
