Hinasecho Hinase Vacations from ￥19,118

Big beds and enough space to get rest

The staff is so friendly and welcoming! They speak excellent English and are very helpful and engaged! I loved walking through the lobby because the staff made you feel just that welcomed. The room was very clean, had an excellent view (high floor) and such cozy and comfy bedding that invited you to stay and sleep. Especially when you come from very thin towels in other hotels, the super plush ones Crowne Plaza offers are a dream. I didn’t want to get out of them. There even was a separate hand towel, something I had encountered in no other hotel. The window in the indoor bathroom is a nice way to combat its usually stuffy feeling. The room is also very quiet! No need to fear the closeness to the train station. That is only a boon since you don’t have to go far to reach your hotel after you arrive. Everything is also in walking distance, or immediately connected to the streetcar. The breakfast had a diverse and delicious selection, with an egg station where live cooks prepare your eggs to your liking. I especially appreciated the healthy options of which there weren’t few. Absolutely would and will book again and can recommend!

Only stayed 1 night and wouldn’t care to stay longer. Room is small and had an odour. Very basic hotel stay not worth the price; stayed in much nicer hotels in Japan for far less money. Upside is it’s located a few minutes walk to train station and 10 minute walk to Kurashiki Old Quarter.

It would be good to highlight that this is a love hotel. Staff were not at the desk and signage was not clear about where the front desk was. The room was large and clean, but because this grandmother didn’t know the kind of hotel, she was surprised by adult vending machines in the room, a massage chair, and intimate objects. The bathroom was large and clean and Cinderella themed. A good surprise was the curling irons in the bathroom area. Location was an industrial area next to a train track.

Staff is very cordial and professional. Breakfast is adequate.
