"Stayed here for one night to experience Miyajima without the tourists. Was a wonderful stay and really enhanced our trip. Used the on site onsen which was a real treat after many days of walking long distances. Staff were friendly and polite and allowed us to store our bags the following day so we could go up Mt Misen. Loved the traditional Japanese rooms. Wasnt a fancy hotel but that's not what we wanted. A great low cost, high quality stay. Highly recommended."

"We had a truly wonderful stay at Miyajima Machiya Hotel Shiomachi-An. The location is excellent, making it a lovely base for exploring Miyajima. The highlight of our stay was undoubtedly the omakase dinner. It was an exceptional culinary experience, thoughtfully prepared and absolutely delicious. We were especially happy to have the opportunity to try fugu (pufferfish) for the first time, which made the evening even more memorable. Breakfast was also delicious and a wonderful way to start the day. We are very grateful for the care and hospitality that went into making our stay so special. Staying here was a memorable part of our time on Miyajima, and we would wholeheartedly recommend this place to other travellers. Thank you very much for such a lovely experience. We hope to have the opportunity to return someday!"

"A charming, quiet ryokan with friendly staff, clean rooms and nice (shared) baths. Breakfast was exceptional and almost too big to fit on the table. And even better, it was exceptionally reasonably priced. I'd recommend an overnight stay on Itsukushima so that you can get away from the crowds and see the island at its best, and I would happily stay here again."

A farm surrounded by the primeval forest on the goddess island of Miyajima

10/10 Excellent
"Kenji was an incredible host and has a really beautiful property. He was very responsive and kind enough to drive us to and from the ferry terminal/ property (about 30-45mins by car). He leaves you totally alone at the property (other than potentially popping in to water his veggies) as he lives elsewhere. I would recommend this stay to anyone looking for a remote retreat. That being said, the property is VERY remote -- this is not for anyone looking to see the sights of Miyajima, or otherwise leave the property at all. You can walk around the farm, take an indoor/ outdoor bath at the bathhouse, or make the short walk down to the beach at the bottom of the hill (rocky but gorgeous, clear, swimmable and near private), but that is all you should plan for unless you want to make the 2hr trek to town or do some serious hiking ! Bring your own food for the stay (fridge and full kitchen provided). Our only real criticism was that not all of the windows in the bedroom had a lock, and the lock on the bedroom door was very flimsy and could be easily opened with a swipe of a credit card or butter knife - the island is very safe but as suspicious New Yorkers that made us very nervous! Would be an easy fix for some peace of mind."

"The property is very nice, clean and modern. The living room is a comfortable place to relax. Please be aware that this is a 3 bedroom property and the other rooms will be occupied by other guests. The kitchen, living room, toilets, and bathroom are all shared with the other guests. The house is lovely but has very thin walls and doors and you can hear all the other guests, even when they are trying to be very quiet. If the other guests leave early in the morning you will very likely be woken up. It is a nice place to stay but please consider this when booking. "
