Hot Springs Hotels in Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan

It is a bit surprising and disappointing that there is no coin laundry (laundry) facility in the hotel. It is the newest building in the area, so the facilities are clean and good. As shown in the attached photo, the hotel is on the 6th floor. As expected from a hot spring village, the large bath is said to be 100% heated, non-salted water. The water is good. Even just taking a bath costs 1,500 yen, but I used it for 70,000 won per night for 2 nights and 3 days from Monday to Tuesday, so I am satisfied. I do not recommend breakfast, but they also provide the famous dish Kawarasoba for dinner, so I recommend it if you want to eat it once. The cost is 4,950 yen. Check-in is at 4 p.m., but unlike other hotels, they are not very flexible, and if there is a vacancy, they will help you check in from 3 p.m. This is the best advantage. There is a Lawson convenience store right in front, and next to it is a tourist information center, foot bath, and potable hot water, so it is the best location. If you walk about 15 minutes towards Yamaguchi, you will find NHK and the central park is pleasant and nice.

We couldn’t have been happier with our stay at Hagi no Yado Tomoe. Outstanding from start to finish. Delicious meals (breakfast and dinner) on both days, comfortable futons in spacious and well-appointed rooms, the most friendly and efficient service (sincere thanks to Takashi-san, our ‘butler’, but also to the entire team) and ideally located in walking distance to all Hagi’s most interesting sights. I can’t recommend Hagi no Yado Tomeo highly enough.

Overall, it was good, but the lighting in the large bathhouse was quite dim, so I was suddenly scared when I was bathing alone. It would have been better if the lighting was a little brighter. The air conditioning in the locker room was weak, so after bathing, I started sweating again. In the summer, it would have been nice to have a medium-sized fan.

Clean and relaxing hotel. Have osen and breakfast included. Multi storey car park is located next to the hotel and the parking fee for one night is 400 yen after you got coupon from hotel front desk. The hotel also provides different type of pillows and facial masks which can choose them from self service cabinets.

After enjoying the hot springs that evening, we enjoyed a kaiseki meal—Yamaguchi Prefecture's famous fugu cuisine. 😋 It was our first time eating fugu. They had fugu sashimi, a small hot pot, fugu chawanmushi, and small fugu tempura. 😅 The waiters were very attentive, explaining the ingredients and cooking methods for each dish so we could savor the flavors. It was much better than our previous experiences at other hot spring inns. A big plus! 👍

The hotel parking space, is outsourced to park in another place, we arrived at 3:30 pm, saw a parking space but the staff said there was someone parked, just out! But the outsourced parking space has a time limit, not self-in, in addition to the time clock, if there is an option, the hotel's own parking lot is much more convenient! Every time there is no parking space, but the hotel hot spring is on the 10th floor, you can see the sea view, is my most reminiscent! Guests are not crowded, very comfortable, everyone can enjoy quietly!

The room is unified into brown ✖️ beige and is a color that is healed from the time you enter. After all, it is noticeable at the moment you enter, so I was reminded that the color is important. The image of a business hotel is pure white and cool, and it is good to be clean, but I was able to sleep comfortably in a room with a warm atmosphere. In addition, there were white rice, shisawakame rice, bread and staple food for breakfast, and raw vegetables, simmered hijiki and oimono, and Japanese and Western dishes were selected, and it was very delicious to choose Japanese and Western on one plate. I especially liked the daily tea croissants and toaster that I refilled, and it was blissful to bake and eat. It was a pity that I couldn't eat the daily tile soba this time, but it is a repeat hotel that I want to go again. The large communal bath was also satisfactory. The locker and the wash basin are close, so I care when I change clothes, but I can check the congestion status on my mobile phone in advance, so I can search and go. I was impressed by the hotel now.

This hotel is great for business travelers because it offers spacious rooms and a large public bath, which is perfect for unwinding after work. I would definitely come back again.

I was traveling alone and stayed overnight without meals. For dinner, I was able to go to an Italian restaurant on the first floor without a reservation. The food was so delicious that I wondered if I was in Italy. The hotel staff were very cheerful and polite, and wonderful people. It was a wonderful trip.

Although the hotel is in a remote location, it seems that all the rooms are facing the seaside. In addition, the rooms have large glass windows, so you can easily see the sea view. The hotel staff are friendly and provide free ramen in the evening, which tastes pretty good. There are also hot spring facilities. Recommended to go.
