Hashirano Vacations from ￥52,430

We had 2 rooms. The amenities were excellent. However one of the room had a wet dog smell.

The entry is extremely hard to find- look for a narrow doorway in the middle of the block, not where the map places you. Signage is poor. Take the elevator to the 5th floor. Reception is unmanned but there is a phone if you have problems with their automatic sign-in (we did). Once we were in the room it was fine for the night.

Walking distance from ferry. Spacious traditional Japanese cedar and wood paneled rooms with panoramic views of the inland sea, tatami mat floors, futons rolled out by staff at bedtime. Big screen tv, tea service, snacks, luxury spa amenities in room. Rooftop lounge with complimentary refreshments offers spectacular views of the bay snd shoreline. Spacious baths and walk in shower in room. Fabulous hot springs communal mineral baths (separate for men & women) in basement, with all amenities. Popular local restaurant offering fried oysters and grilled eels at rear of hotel building. Gracious, helpful staff. We loved it.

I very much enjoyed the breakfast. It's great for the price. The hotel room is around average.

It was a great stay.
