Hot Springs Hotels in Ehime Prefecture, Japan

I booked a two-bed room, which was quite spacious, but it didn't include breakfast and still cost 1418 RMB, even on a weekday. I really felt it was too expensive. Similar rooms at the Crowne Plaza and Daiwa Roynet Hotel nearby were only around 800 RMB and 600 RMB, respectively, for the same day. Aside from the high price, the hotel's hot spring and complimentary udon noodles were indeed excellent. During the hot spring's operating hours, there were free ice cream and Yakult available for self-service. This hotel is located on Ookaido street, a 10-minute walk from Matsuyama Castle, 2 minutes from Mitsukoshi department store, and 3 minutes from the tram station to Matsuyama JR Station. Once you get your bearings, it feels very convenient. I just wish the price wasn't so high; I think maybe I overpaid this time!

The hotel is not close to Dogo Onsen street and you will need to drive or get a taxi if you want to go there. There are no restaurants or shops nearby the hotel. There is a walk nearby the hotel you can take which offers nice scenery in the woods. The hotel looks a bit dated particularly the bedrooms and the corridors. I asked for a quiet room facing the mountain instead of one facing a busy road and had to pay an additional 2200 yen. The hotel has a number of onsens and I like the outdoor ones best. The buffet dinner and breakfast offer good selection and I particularly like the dinner which offered nice teppanyaki beef and sushi. The hotel reception staff spoke very little English and the hotel did not reply to an email I sent them asking for transportation information to get to the hotel. There are buses near the hotel which go to Matsuyama and Imabari but they run infrequently.

Amazing value for such a high class hotel. Spacious rooms, beautiful spa with indoor and outdoor baths. Staff were polite, helpful and friendly. About 10 mins walk from JR station. I always stay here when visiting Imabari.

I visited this capsule hotel on a solo trip and it's close to the station and has a hot spring! Even though it was reasonably priced, there were multiple types of hot springs and saunas, so it was great to be able to soothe the fatigue of my travels! After the hot spring, I relaxed in the open space and read my favorite manga, or had a massage in a massage chair.It was a very fulfilling experience and I would like to stay here again when I visit Imabari again!

We wanted to experience Dogo Onsen and this was a great choice (albeit expensive because it was a holiday weekend). The hotel is lovely and the service is beyond excellent. The staff was super kind as we are English speakers. Plus, we really enjoyed the hotels onsens better than the ones in town (the Dogo Onsen is being renovated and only one room was open for each gender; the same was the case with the Annex). The hotels onsens were lovely and the private outdoor onsen was a really lovely experience. We also took advantage of their convenient bus service into town although it’s only a 10 minute walk and we walked multiple times. Highly recommend!

Excellent hotel with great location, everything was perfect. Staff was nice. The room with balcony overlooking the town is beautiful and well-functioned. The rooftop onsen is comfortable. Breakfast is plentiful. We love our stay very much.

This is a true classic onsen resort hotel with a fantastic ambiance. The half-board plan (dinner and breakfast) was very satisfying. The service truly stood out; we informed the front desk in advance that our child wouldn't eat raw fish or cold tofu from the Kaiseki menu, and they quickly changed it to tempura. The veteran chef's hospitality and profound skill were undeniable. The natural onsen water at Dogo Onsen was also incredibly relaxing. The actual size of the room must have been over 40 tatami mats; it's the most satisfying Japanese-style room I've ever stayed in.

I booked a Japanese-style room. The room was spacious and very clean, and came with complimentary snacks, sake, and orange juice. Both breakfast and dinner were fantastic. Dinner was a 10-course Kaiseki meal, and every dish was delicious. Breakfast also offered a wide variety of choices, with the seafood donburi being particularly outstanding. There were four different baths to choose from. Overall, I felt it offered excellent value for money.

The room was comfortable and the heating was really good. Especially the hot springs operated with the hotel are better than Dogo Onsen. And the cleanliness was really good because towels and clothes were provided every day. Breakfast was delicious and there were many things that I didn't think was a hotel breakfast. And the yakitori house in front of the hotel is delicious.

It's clean, there's space to work, and the desks are separated, which is convenient. It's also convenient that there are smoking areas on the even-numbered floors. The breakfast is also just as good.
