Hotels near Ikikinogomon, Imabari

How many years ago, after seeing it in a travel magazine (Yukoyuko, Jalan, etc.), I was attracted to the open-air bath with a magnificent view. , The fact that you can only go by ferry from Takehara Port will make your trip more exciting. Arrived in just 20 minutes by shuttle bus. There was an overjoyed change that the restaurant meal of the reservation plan will be prepared as a private room meal in a separate room at check-in! It seems that the number of customers is small due to the corona, so it is probably because I can use the vacant room. The room is simple, the amenities are minimal but clean and spacious, and above all, the view from the window that opens the bran and jumps into your eyes. The open-air bath I was looking for was that it had a wonderful view and I could spend time forgetting my daily life, and no one was there while I was taking a bath. What surprised me was the food! Although it is a standard plan, the quality and quantity are excellent, and the steamed abalone is exquisite and the deliciousness of the sashimi is exceptional! As expected, it is the Seto Inland Sea. The staff is working hard for young people, but I liked the appearance of the man in the room who was polite and hard to serve customers from abroad. Breakfast used to be a buffet style, but now it is compatible with corona infection. Probably, it was very good for us because it is a Japanese set meal and I am not good at buffet. It's nice to have coffee after a meal. I was worried that the price was higher than when I first saw this hotel, but when I came, I was convinced that it was a good hotel. However, there is only one ... On the way back from the Shinkansen, when I noticed that I had forgotten the clothes I was wearing when I arrived at the inn, I called and said that I had nothing left behind ...? ?? I changed into a different top in the morning I forgot the clothes I wore the day before and left them on the hanger, so I have no place to forget other than the hotel ... Of course I forget this is worse, so be careful! I thought, but I was a little shocked to be told that I wouldn't even leave my forgotten hair clip or tea bottle at another inn (tears). There are four.

Service: Correspondence and service are very good

The owner's wife and a female staff member gave us a very detailed explanation. The facilities were very clean. There was a designated bicycle parking shed, so we felt safe. The hostel was nice, so we were able to relax and enjoy our stay.

The hotel's reception area and bar are quite modern with some cute Japanese décor and homewares on shelves. There is also a complimentary 'amenity buffet' so you can pick up some extra soaps, shampoos, bath salts, etc. any time you need them. We had a wa****su (traditional Japanese tatami room) on the 3rd floor that was moderate in size but very clean and looks to have had a recent renovation as the bathroom was very new and modern. Imabari's main shopping street is just a 2 minute walk away with some nice coffee shops and homeware stores. There are also two Poeme stores very closeby where you can buy Imabari's local sweet treat which are perfect with coffee and also as a boxed gift idea too! The nearest convenience store (a Family Mart) is about a 5 minute walk away and Imabari Castle is about a 10 minute walk from the hotel's front entrance and makes for an interesting afternoon and has an excellent 360 degree view from the top. The hotel has bicycles that you can rent for free, however the seats were very uncomfortable and even a little painful (though it might just be me, as I haven't ridden a bicycle in quite a few years and am a big heavy Australian bloke!) Our futons were very comfortable and we had a great nights' sleep and felt very refreshed in the morning. Unfortunately we made the decision to go to the Imabari Kokusai Hotel for breakfast instead of having breakfast at Hotel Kikusui Imabari and we had quite possibly the worst buffet breakfast there. Really regret we didn't just stay and have breakfast in-house, as the food at Kikusui looked to have been far better and at a fraction of the price too! Couldn't fault this hotel and will absolutely stay again on my next visit to my old hometown of Imabari!

As a facility, I felt nostalgic because it was a bath with a rare Yufune and a washroom at this time. How do you say it is Showa? It is located at the end of the north of imabari Ginza, and the location from the station is not good, but imabari Jo castle is right there. The shopping street has been a complete shutter since the entire Shimanami Kaido road, but there are also shops that have a new sense of vacant stores. It may be a good inn for travelers who can apologize for the old good imabari and enjoy the feeling of being sorry. Breakfast is free, hot coffee is free to drink. Well, efforts are being made.

I stayed at the Kisuke Yu ticket cherry blossom breakfast plan. It is right next to JR Imabari Station and there is Lawson nearby. I can walk a little to the Yakitori shop of Imabari specialty, and the drinking street of Imabari. We arrived about 9 o'clock on Friday night, but the free parking lot was able to stop safely at the last 1. Welcome alcohol is good until 21 o'clock and free drinks can be brought into the room by ０ o'clock. Amenities can be taken freely. I don't know if the lower layer is, but when I stayed upstairs, I didn't hear the sound of the train at all. Kisuke no Yu is very comfortable with a sophisticated hot spring facility, so I recommend a plan with a hot spring ticket.

This hotel is very new, and it's only around 3 minutes walking distant away from the JR station. The lobby is very big with big windows and has many chairs for guest to sit and rest, there are also bike rack for you to lock the bike at the lobby. We were surprised to find out that there's welcome drinks and beer is also included. Our room was on one of the higher floor, so the view was beautiful. Breakfast was buffet style and was amazing, selection was great and delicious. Would definitely stay there again if we visit the area. The only downside is the staff doesn't understand English too well, but not too big of an issue when there's google translate.

Very disappointed to be writing this review... Firstly, their website is dreadfully dated and their booking system puzzling, even comically so. It almost feels like using the Wayback Machine... I tried booking five or six months in advance and so I wrote to the hotel to express my excitement for both coming back to Imabari where I once lived and worked teaching English in 1999, and also that I had always wanted to stay at the hotel, as I actually lived directly across the road from the hotel and always thought it so exclusive and luxurious-looking, and it was the talk-of-the-town back in '99 when they were still very new. I was willing to pay a substantial room rate for a Tatami Suite (approx. ¥30,000 per night for three nights) however was advised that they were sold-out for my desired dates-of-stay in March 2023. What irked me is that no alternative accommodation options were offered, despite there still being availability on third-party websites such as *********** and ******* for other room types, and there was no acknowledgment of my excitement and enthusiasm for wanting to be a guest of theirs' after so many years, or for any disappointment caused. This is terrible service, and not exactly what one would call 'growing the business' to reject a potential guest despite having other rooms and suites available to sell. We instead booked ourselves a washitsu (traditional Japanese tatami room) at Hotel Kikusui Imabari down by the port, which was cute, comfortable, clean, and looks to have had recently had a refurbishment of their guestrooms as the bathrooms while small were nice and new. The cost of this room was also about a third of what the Kokusai Imabari Hotel asks for their Tatami Suites as well. I still wanted to go to the Kokusai Imabri Hotel however and at least see their gardens and lobby, pick up some Imbari towels from the official store at the front entrance, and have breakfast in their restaurant. The lobby is very nice and it does have the grandeur of a Japanese hotel trying to be a European hotel without being tacky or dated, and it does appear that they have recently cleaned all the chandeliers (I'd read other reviews and this seems to have been a first impression for a lot of guests, so this was a nice surprise to see them dust-free). We had a look at the gardens outside and they were very nice and maintained as to be expected with Japanese gardens. So why the 1 star review? Well, we wanted to treat ourselves to what we thought would be a five-star breakfast. We were told to go upstairs to the mezzanine level and we met a nice lady staff member who advised that breakfast would be roughly ¥2,400 per person. No problem, that's fair for a good buffet breakfast. We were then however lead into a huge banquet hall with only a couple of dozen guests dining, which made it feel even emptier and more like a school cafeteria rather than a classy restaurant. We then went to the buffet and it seems that none of the bain mar

It is a very clean hotel. In the heart of the city There are many drinking establishments around at night. And close to Matsumoto Castle, you can walk to the castle. There is a washing machine. I 10 of the hotel is a dining room with a beautiful view. You can sit and eat and see the view of the snowy mountains below. Family Mart convenience store as well

I couldn't make a reservation for a hot spring inn at GW and I was planning to sightsee Matsuyama the next day, so I booked this hotel with 2 meals. Dinner is a Japanese food with a lot of mouth as well as other word of mouth. Breakfast is a choice from Japanese or Japanese tempura. There is also a buffet such as drinks and a feeling of fulfillment from the morning. There is no restaurant around the hotel and it is saved with 2 meals. The room uses an ordinary semi double for 2 people. The unit bus was a little tired, but it was divided into a business hotel. The cost is cheap and the service correspondence is no problem.
