Sukagawa Vacations from ￥44,121

Although the hotel building and its facilities are a little bit old, the room is very clean and hotel staff are very friendly. It takes about 15 minutes’ walk from New Shirakawa (Shin Shirakawa) Train Station, or you can catch a taxi at about 1000 Yen. There are several restaurants located within five minutes’ walking distance, however, it is relatively far from downtown Shirakawa and Komine Castle.

The hotel is a short walk from the train/bus station. The hotel inside is okay. I think the elevator compartment needs to be painted a lighter color than black though because it is hard to discern the size and how many people with luggage can fit. The room was adequate for one night. It’s too compact for more than one night though for 2 persons. The bathroom is similar to all Japanese accommodations so far — compact with a high step tub. Not any space to put your stuff so be mindful of keeping the water inside the tub. If need a place for the night, would go for it.

Staff was great… room wise could do some improvement as it feels rundown. Toilet was small. When check in and gone to the said level the lights on the floor were off… had to turn on our mobile phone lights to get to the our room.

Great place to stay. Handy to train station, nice quiet and comfortable room. Staff were friendly and efficient. Great value.

Easy to park. Clean room. Looks small from outside but it’s actually spacious in the inside. The best part is the affordable price. Hotel R9 is the best!
