Hotels near Chigusa Folk Art in Kurashiki

We stayed here for three nights and the location is great as you can walk to the Bihan historical area, as well as the JR station and Mitsue Outlet Mall which are around 750 m away. There are a myriad of eateries in the area, from izakaya to ramen, and a tonkatsu restaurant with a Michelin star. The hotel provides amenities such as yukata, dental and shaving kits. There is also a high tea with some sweets and some savouries. Breakfast is included in the price and you collect the boxes from the lobby. It was similar on all three days and included cold sandwiches and salads. If you want coffee you need to buy a hotel tumbler for 1000 yen, after which hot drinks are free flow. Staff were friendly, particularly the younger ones wearing the blue shirts, such as Ms Pek from Korea and the young Indian man. The exception was the female floor manager in black suit, who was effusive to locals but did not seem to know how to deal with foreigners. Overall, it was a good hotel stay.

First of all, access to convenience stores, supermarkets, beauty districts and restaurants is very good from the station. The hotel is still new and the view at breakfast is also seasonal and weather-dependent, but it is very good. I'm glad that coffee and tea can be freely drunk in the lounge on the 11th floor from check-in to 24:00. There are 6 washing places in the public bath. So it might be a little crowded during the sightseeing season. I felt that there were few elevators for the number of rooms. The room is a little larger than a business hotel, but you can open a large suitcase and put it under the bed. I didn't feel narrow because I was.

Blow. The size of the room is definitely spacious by Japanese standards. Neat and tidy and quiet are the standard, plus points, peach juice and coffee on the first floor, hot spring on the top floor, free popsicles after bathing (I ate three, it was sour and sweet and so refreshing) and massage chairs, free night snacks (I really didn't have time to eat) A hearty breakfast and welcome desserts in the refrigerator. Shampoo and body soap are pola. Less than ten minutes walk from the station, opposite the Dayuan Art Museum, the location is superb. The pillows and beds are hard I like, so I can sleep well all night. Where to find such an excellent price-performance ratio in China on National Day.

Close to JR train station, just 5-8 mins walk. Shopping malls n restaurants can be reached within mins. The room for 3 adults is a bit small, there is limited space for me to put my luggage case.

The hotel overall was just a bit too average. There was no parking at the hotel and nearby parking was pretty expensive as they charge you every 12 hours rather than 24 hours. So, for one day of parking, the cost was over 1200 yen. The hotel itself has only one elevator and no inside stairs. So, it is often a long wait for the elevator. Although there is a sign in the hotel warning people not to take the elevator at busy times, that of course is silly. Those times are busy because people are choosing the best times to go somewhere or come back. The hotel has a lot of noise from neighbors as well and it does not make for a good sleep, generally. I strongly suggest bringing earplugs for this hotel. The bath was again quite average. It smelled a bit too chlorinated for an onsen, and there were only 3 wash stations. They even recommend that you might have to wait to wash during busy times. There are a lot of these kinds of ”warnings” in the hotel asking you not to do x during the busy times. I think it would simply make more sense to remodel or improve the situation so that there is not as much congestion. The two more positive things about the hotel are the location and the fact that they did not violate the law by asking foreigners for more information than they are entitled to. The location is very near the station, so if you take the train, that can be very positive. In addition, they seemed to be used to foreign residents going to the hotel and did not demand to see a passport that I am not required to carry or any other form of ID that they are not entitled to see based on the law. So, the staff seem to be well-trained in that respect.

I stayed for one night in a hurry for sightseeing after business trip. Located about ５ minutes walk from Kurashiki Station, the appearance is very beautiful. Behind the hotel, there are many taverns that can be drunk, and I thought it was suitable for businessmen traveling alone. The front desk of the hotel is at ３ F, and at １８ on Thursday, a businessman waiting for check-in was lined up at the front desk. The front desk window was only ２, but the staff was crisp with ３ name, so there was not much waiting time. Since it was settled in advance, I filled out the essential items such as addresses on the tablet and completed it, and check-in was completed in about ５ minutes. The room was still new, bright enough and very clean. I could hear some noise in the aisle, but the rest was generally good. We didn't use the public bath and breakfast buffet, but both were very attractive, so I would like to use it next time I go sightseeing.

This hotel is set in a great location of Okayama, close to the shoutengai, Okayama castle and the JR station with lots of choice for food close by. Staff friendly and helpful. Would not recommend to use their car park or listen to the hotels advice on parking, we were quoted 2700¥ for a nights parking, when we took a look in the area we found parking for 900¥ for 24 hours. Room very nice if a little dated, lack of public ofuro was a little sad but what else to expect at this price. Bathroom a little small, but definitely ok again for the price. No breakfast offered or provided, so can’t really give any advice on this. However there is an amazing cafe around the corner that sells freshly made croissants 🥐 

This hotel has a Chinese name ”Hotel Crane” Ctrip translation of the detour ”Ri Ori Konte Sky Tower Hotel” locals do not understand, causing us Chinese people to ask for directions! This is a hotel with more than 300 years of old buildings. It is next to the small river. There is a toilet in the room that cannot take a bath. Therefore, there is a public men and women bath. Breakfast is a general Japanese breakfast. Because the place is small, it is necessary to eat in time. You can stay after 5 pm. Check out at 10 am, quite strange time period, but the service is first-class, we arrived early for luggage storage, the time to enter the room luggage has been put, tatami pure Japanese-style room although it is a historical building, but everything is still methodical! Kurashiki is a small place, the most lively sightseeing area near the hotel, many interesting shops!

Kurashiki Royal Art Hotel, which was worried about having eaten several times in hachikenzo. This time I was able to stay alone ２ nights, slowly enter a large marble bathtub that was enough to stretch my legs. Not going abroad traveling recently, I was immersed in a elegant feeling. The air conditioning was just right and I was impressed with the standard room with 40 square meters. The bed was comfortable.

Nice hotel with a nice view, Kurashiki is lost in choosing a hotel, but it is one of the candidates. ● Access 1000 yen by taxi from Kurashiki station. The best hotel in the back of the Mikan district. It is located at the site of Kurashiki daikansho. ● Room is beautiful because it has just been renovated. Air conditioning is comfortable. Especially Simmons' bed is the best. ● large bath The dressing room is narrow and the bathtub becomes dense during the busy period, so the best bath at 6:00 a.m. or 17:00 in the evening is recommended. ● Coin laundry only 2 units, so the busy period is very crowded. I can't use it even if I go around, so let's think first. ● Breakfast rich and satisfying. Especially Japanese food was good. Western food should be selected with a little more attention. It's boring. Cospa is not good, but a hotel full of retro feeling. Especially the passage through the back entrance to the Mikan district is fun. I hope you can put it as a candidate for accommodation. By the way, the closing of the Mikan district starts around 16 o'clock, so we walk early.
