Hot Springs Hotels in Kagawa Prefecture, Japan

I was very satisfied with my stay this time! The hotel's overall environment was clean and tidy, and the room was spacious and bright, with complete and well-maintained facilities. The bedding was comfortable, allowing me to sleep soundly through the night. The front desk staff were very enthusiastic and efficient with both check-in and check-out, and patiently answered all my questions. The location is also very convenient, with easy access to transportation and a wide variety of dining options nearby. Overall, it offers excellent value for money. I highly recommend it whether you're traveling for business or leisure, and I'll definitely choose to stay here again if I have the chance!

The room is spacious and comfortable, with wet and dry separation. It is rare that the hot spring hotel room is also equipped with a separate shower room. The hotel is relatively elegant overall, the hot springs are comfortable, and the banquet cuisine and buffet breakfast are also good.

The staff of Olivean Shodoshima Yuhigaoka Hotel are professional and considerable. Their service are excellent, especially 1) The shuttle bus driver (morning shift strong man, forgot asking his name). When we arrived at Shodoshima Ferry Pier at 11:00am on April 7, we found a hotel shuttle bus, but not sure if it's the one of our staying hotel. We asked the driver if it's the one that waiting to pick us up. He said yes, but the hotel check-in time should be 3:00pm in the afternoon. He suggested us to have the sightseeing first and helped register the afternoon time for picking us instead. Also, he suggested taking our hand carry bags to the hotel front desk to avoid we carrying too heavy bags while travelling. 2) The lady staff (sorry for forgetting her name) at the lobby hall, who was very proactive. She came over immediately to help taking photos for us when she found we're taking a selfie. She also served us with free drinks for enjoying the sunset at the hall. 3) The staff at the reception desk are very professional. They helped us for check-in, explained the details of the time for meals, and provided all the information required. 4) The foods for dinner & breakfast buffet are very nice and yummy. The restaurant is clean and tidy. Overall, Olivean Shodoshima Yuhigaoka Hotel is a very professional and comfortable accommodation for stay. We're pleased and feel glad choosing this hotel.

The location is not too bad, with 10 min walking distance, you can get to the shopping Main Street.  Yet too my surprises, not many stores opened after 7pm. The hotel is nice and clean, but relatively small, compare to other Dormy Inn I have stayed in before.   The front desk is a bit cold in term of attitude, not disrespectful or any, just quite passive at helping. 

Location is 10mins walk from busy street on a small slope, if not requesting pick up from train station, walking there seems a bit far away. The atmosphere was quite dark in general, some of the places seems dated but overall a classic onsen hotel and staffs were attentive. Not much amenities provided, just water in room and rest in fridge need to be charged as well as it's private onsen, which compared to the previous onsen hotel I stayed seems not too appealing.

I love the location near the jetties, makes it so convenient to book tickets for my island hopping plans. There’s plenty of good eateries and 7-11 downstairs. Big bonus is the onsen bath and laundry facility on the 9th floor. Hotel even gives you a bottle of water incentive and they still give you fresh towels, which they hang on your room door when you don’t wish to have room make-up service. Another plus point is the airport limousine pick is within sister property - JR Clement Hotel Highly recommend this hotel!

Helpful staff, beautiful and clean room, nice onsen with high-quality water and stunning view from the top in the morning. The dinning room was nice in terms of atmosphere and the food was above average. But the restaurant staff refused to borrow a knife for us to cut fruits at our room, making us slightly frustrated despite their explanation about safety issues.

I was surprised by how small the room was for a hot spring ryokan. With two suitcases, there was barely any room to walk. There was no Wi-Fi signal in the room, and the explanation given was that too many guests were using it simultaneously that night. Wi-Fi was only available in the hallway and lobby. Although the staff tried hard to resolve the issue, there was no solution, so we had to use our own mobile data (as an apology, they gave us a small souvenir when we checked out). Additionally, the 'one night, two meals' package... At over ¥2200, it was ¥1200 more expensive than just the room, but both dinner and breakfast were very mediocre. Compared to a hot spring ryokan I stayed at previously on Shodoshima (which wasn't great either, but at least the food was refined), the meals here were far inferior. There were only three small slices of sashimi, and there were even fish scales on the fish. For ¥1200, two people could have had many better dining options outside. The hot spring was decent, but nothing particularly impressive.

Since I was traveling to Takamatsu in January and April, I did a lot of comparisons and finally chose the Sanuki Shionoe Onsen Hotel. The ryokan is a bit out of the way, but it's easy to find if you're driving and have a GPS. The hotel is a relatively large, standalone building in the area, and while its exterior isn't particularly special, it has the Japanese-style onsen ryokan aesthetic that many travelers prefer. Many local Japanese tourists visit here. The guest rooms are very spacious and clean, and fully equipped. We booked two rooms, including breakfast and dinner. The price was a bit high, but dinner turned out to be a Japanese-style buffet. Although the variety wasn't as extensive as in larger, formal hotels, all the traditional Japanese dishes were available, and to our surprise, they even had teppanyaki wagyu beef! The food tasted great, and we were very satisfied. There aren't many hot springs, just one indoor and one outdoor, but the onsen water is incredibly smooth – it's the best I've soaked in recently. So I specifically recommend this hotel to friends planning to visit the area. The overall service at the hotel was also excellent!

Friends, go for it with confidence! The cost-effectiveness is really high, and the transportation is very convenient, everyone can come and experience it! The service attitude of the staff is very good, polite and courteous, there is nothing wrong with it, just come and give it five stars, the experience is first-class, in short, I highly recommend everyone to check in, the cost performance is very high, the transportation is also convenient, it completely stimulates my desire to go out ( ´͈ ᵕ `͈ )◞♡
