Hotels near Tanaka Shrine in Kawabe

The isolation facilities at the train station are new and clean, the breakfast is average, and there is a large paid parking lot nearby for $900 yen a day. However, Qianqi is not easy to take photos in front of the hotel because those people are police officers! 

This is the second and last time I have stayed at a hotel, as I have not been able to travel this year. Inuyama is about an hour by car or train from my home, and I have been there several times before. There are several hotels with similar grades and rates around Inuyama Station, but I chose this one because the website clearly states that ”parking before check-in and after check-out, and luggage storage is available” (other hotels maybe a hotel). I went by car, but it is about a 5-minute walk from the station and a 15-minute walk to Inuyama Castle. The room is not that big or new, but it was clean and there was no shortage of facilities and equipment. We had a plan with breakfast, but the content was satisfactory. There are many restaurants on Honmachi Street, which extends south from Inuyama Castle, but most of them are for tourists and are not open at night, so we decided to have dinner at an izakaya-like restaurant near the station.

It was a great treat to stay overnight in a lovely, comfortable room with a fabulous view of Inuyama Castle. Although I was out sightseeing for most of the afternoon, the castle was lit up until late at night, and I had a relaxed morning in the room before checkout. It was very cool to glance across and see the iconic tenshu there (the roof of another building was also visible). The broader view was delightfully scenic, including the hotel’s landscaped grounds and swimming pool, the river, buildings on the opposite bank and mountains in the background. I had a balcony with an attractive small couch. The room had a large graphic of the castle on the wall behind the bed and lounge (with another graphic under the huge tv), and featured beautiful fabrics and fittings (super light shades!). I particularly liked the wood, and the woven and “rope” designs. The crockery and teapot were very nice. There was quality tea and coffee (Nespresso coffee machine), snacks and non-alcoholic drinks. I enjoyed delicious and artistically-presented room service meals for dinner and breakfast. WiFi was good, and I was happy to find there was an amplifier. The bathroom was well-designed. The hotel had some fun, innovative Christmas trees and illuminations. It’s nicely landscaped with heaps of space and ideally located riverside and adjacent to pretty Urakuen Garden, home to the National Treasure 16th century teahouse “Jo-an”. The castle, Sankoinari Shrine and the historic Jokomachi precinct are within walking distance. You can still see the castle if you don’t book the more expensive castle rooms, as it’s visible from the ground floor restaurant, pool, grounds and lobby, as well as from windows near the lift on each level. I didn’t try the onset or fitness centre. I’d booked directly and joined the IHG loyalty program. This meant I received a special welcome, invited to sit at a desk across from a kind staff member, in the lobby area showcasing local artisan work. All the staff were pleasant and helpful, and there were no issues in getting a cab after checkout. Hope to stay again one day!

Close to the station, there is a hot spring bath, the reception is super fast, breakfast is rich

The hotel is very new and spacious. Our check-in was quick and staff greeted us warmly. There was free parking, which is an advantage. Rooms are very spacious and well designed, there were room to laid out 2 big luggages. The view to the river nearby was also great. The hotel kindly offers a map of the city and restaurant info. They also offer to help book the restuarants. However, some info was not updated because a restaurant the hotel said is open turns out to be closed. Any how, our stay was pleasant.

The price is reasonable, the service is thoughtful and welcoming, especially the rich free breakfast every morning. The station is also within walking distance from the hotel without using transportation. It is the first choice for travel, work and life.

You get a voucher for a frozen meal which you can store in your room freezer and microwave inside your room. The room was nice and cool even though it was summer. It is spacious with a large bed. I had an issue with the Wi-Fi where it said no connection even though I typed in the password, but I was only there to sleep so I didn’t try to ask the staff for help.

I used it for business on weekdays. I also used it in February 2022, but it was a success regardless of the corona disaster. (It is crowded with business customers even on weekdays) The reason I chose it was that there was a large communal bath. It is easy to use it immediately when it is troublesome to fill the bathtub with hot water at the end of work. At around 22:00 pm, it is available almost in a chartered state. It is a bit far from MEITETSU Shin Kani / JR Kani station, 10 minutes walk, but the hotel itself is located in the center near the city hall. However, within walking distance, there are few restaurants other than taverns (about Starbucks on the other side of the road), and there are few choices for dinner. There is a Don Quixote UNY Kani store about 5 minutes walk (crossing the bridge). AM2 Since it is open until 00 o'clock, it is convenient because it can be used for a little shopping. The facility itself is clean and uncomplained. Located in the center of the city, the night zone is quiet with few cars. Even when you call a taxi, a taxi waiting at the station will come, so you won't have to wait.

The hotel has a new clean management. The service attitude of the staff is friendly. There are not many breakfast options, but it is delicious. The hotel parking lot is too small and requires a reservation. I did not make a reservation, so I had to park the car outside the street.
