Excellent service

Reviewed By kwan3452

From the moment we arrived till we departed, excellent service from all the staff was experienced. A relaxed check in comfort accompanied by drinks. The rooms had so many facilities not seen in most hotels, e.g. the face wash, shaving foam and aftershave in addition to moisturiser and lotions for ladies. Complimentary Snacks & teabags were refreshed daily. The best experience was the keseki dinners we enjoyed on both nights. Besides the fresh ingredients, the two serving staff went out of their way to translate the ingredients so that we could understand. I hope that hotel management will convey the appreciation from all of us staying in 301-304. I attached a photo.

Seafood, Onsen and caring staff

Reviewed By cranapple5

The hotel is across from Sakaiminato JR station, about a 50min (cute) train ride from Yonago. The area has one of the largest ports known for snow crabs and all sorts of fresh seafood from the Sea of Japan. Visitors enjoy the crab markets in the area and seafood restaurants on a street with the theme of comic creatures by Muzuki Shigeru, a famous cartoonist from the area. This hotel itself was amazing. It was spotless, and every details from Ikebana flower arrangement to comfortable room with all sorts of amenities made us feel welcome. For foreign travelers they had a handout in English explaining their system. This enabled the foreign guests take full advantage of what the hotel offered. The top floor had natural Onsen hot spring baths with water so soothing to the skin. All necessary amenities were prepared by the hotel. The breakfast was known for create-yourself-Chirashi sushi and all the spread at the buffet with Japanese and western foods. Again the seafood here was so fresh. What made this hotel so special was the staff. Their hospitality was genuine, and showed they care. They made us feel like we came back to a home away from home. Definitely worth the experience.

Inishie no Yado Keiun

A new & modern hotel with classic Japanese attention to details.

Reviewed By spr_smmlx

Stayed a night during our trip to Izumo, not knowing what to expect but booked it because it had good reviews. Stunned by the spacious lobby and very well appointed interior decor - beautiful tatami hallways and lots of wooden beams and sand plaster walls creates a traditional Japanese feel - yet with all the modern amenity like central heating, wifi, and a great coffee free of charge at the lounge area. Some rooms has roten-buro (bath) in balcony, made from Hinoki. The hotel also has many public baths and saunas, it is a true luxury to stretch at one of them and then enjoy a free candy bar and ramen after the bath. The food was excellent too. Due to the fact it is a big hotel (Usagi and Keiun - two hotels connected, Keiun being quieter and high grade), you need to pre-book the breakfast and dinner time upon reservation, and the food service feels like served by airline cabin crew (efficient and fast) - but the quality of each dish is well above average. Will definitely stay again.

Great Beef and good view

Reviewed By LuLu_HK

Visited here for 2 nights. It is up to most Onsen Hotel standard in Japan but no surprise except one of the dinner where the main dishes is beef which is so great. Room is huge, staff is nice, ocean view is great. The only thing that I can complain here is 1. Outdoor Onsen is very small. May fit 3 pax only with comfortable zone 2. No rest area for free milk or tea or small gold drink (except water) after onsen as most of other Onsen hotel Rest of the service is great.

Modern onsen hotel

Reviewed By ibjpn13

Beautiful modern ryokan hotel with awesome buffet dinner and breakfast. Most of the food were Japanese with a few western styled food "Japanified". The hotel supplies one style of yukata for the gents and many choices for the ladies. The room was spacious and very clean with a modern bathroom. The beds were very comfortable (very important because we have been traveling for two weeks at this point). The area around the hotel was very pleasant to walk around with a river running in front of the hotel.

Kurashiki Yuga Onsen Hotel Santoka

Great Onsen and Service

Reviewed By Pengapa

This is more like a hotel with hot spring rather than a ryokan. We stayed here on a weekday during an off season period so the place was pretty much deserted and we almost had the hotel to ourselves. The baths, both indoor and outdoor, were great and it was fantastic to take a bath on my own in a big bathtub. The food was very good. They serve Japanese breakfast but you can also have bread and coffee. What is great about this place is they provide a lift to stations, Kojima and Kurashiki. We had quite a bit of time at the Kojima station and so we decided to catch a train to the other side of Seto Ohashi and come back, using our Kansai Wide Pass. You get a great view from the train. Next day, we got a lift to the Kurashiki station. This made it possible for us to visit 'Bikan' area in Kurashiki before moving onto Himeji to look at the castle. Overall, we enjoyed staying here although I cannot tell what it is like when it is busy.

This Ryokan was a great place! We stayed in room 402. We opted for dinner our room. The room had a great view, extremely clean, and comfortable. Additionally, the ryokan was accommodating with food allergies- we called ahead to ask if they can make accommodations and they did. The food was DELICIOUS!! Also, the the onsen was great! They have the public and private bath options. The location of the ryokan was convenient. We will be staying here again when we return Tottori. Thank you fo such a wonderful stay!
