Shimanto Town Hotels & Accommodations

Because of the new facility, the corner of the building is beautiful 々. It is conveniently located where you can go, so you can enjoy various things on the premises as well as sweets. Local rice such as bonito and cherry blossoms at ”Ichimonya”. You can buy local souvenirs at the next ”Bussankan Sun River Shimanto”. Moreover, if you show the room key, you will be discounted. There is no explanation, so I think it is better to look at the paper given before shopping. There is no discount on New Year's Day, so there is only an explanation. I am happy with the welcome drink.

Located on the high ground of the Shimanto River Estuary, a little far from the center of Shimanto City, it is an inn surrounded by nature, adjacent to a large park. Because of that, the night is very dark. At night, I went to Nakamura town to eat and came back by car, but I was surprised by the darkness around the inn. There are front desks, shops, restaurants, baths, etc. in the main building, and the rooms are different buildings. There is a small building in the lounge and bar on the way from the main building, and there is a two-story cottage that surrounds the courtyard. There is a small table and chair in the courtyard, a pleasant place. Some people sat and opened their personal computers. The room seems to have an open-air bath or a room with a loft, but we used a Japanese room. Not very large, but calm in a tatami room. Outside the veranda is also surrounded by trees 々 and quiet. There is a unit bus in the room, but there is a large bath in the main building. There were hot springs, seawater open-air baths and medicine baths, which we enjoyed. Especially, the medicine bath seemed to be very good and it was good. The cheek to take the bath was nice. I was able to spend very relaxing.

Clean hotel with amazing with of the Pacific Ocean from inside the room. The staffs are very helpful and offered to carry my luggage up the stairs. However due to language barrier, did not tell me that I can see the ocean and sunrise from my room. I missed the beautiful view as the curtains are close and did not discover the view until I was about to checkout. It is a regret as I believe the sunrise would be stunning. Would highly recommend booking at the restaurant in advance, as there is no much to eat and shop nearby. The restaurant is small scaled, so might not be able to cater last minute orders. Overall a very nice stay, given the budget. Suitable for those who are on driving.

It stands on the mountain. The view from the top floor was the best. The bath was also colored 々, and it was a hot spring with a salt smell, and the open air was also wide and good. If you are going by JR, you can also climb the back road of Naoto for 4 minutes from Hakawa Station and about 5 minutes from there. The signboard is secretly coming out, but the road is hard to understand and when the sun is over, it doesn't feel dark to walk & it is quite slippery after raining, so it turns around the corner of the Koyaki shop that has been around from the public road for about 12 minutes The road to go (about 900 meters away from the road that comes out in Google maps) is recommended for ordinary shoes. Or you can go from ino station by taxi for 1000 yen (as of 2022) in 7-8 minutes. The hotel transfer is only ino station at 16 o'clock (reservation is necessary), so I think it would be better to ride it if the timing is right. The hotel is said to be the facilities of the inn of Kanpo at the height of the year, but I think it is still cleanly maintained. One thing I was worried about was that there was a dried insect in the lighting of the fluorescent lamp in the room, so it might be better to clean it occasionally. It may be no choice because it gathers in the light. I stayed for a long time at the pilgrimage and the activity of the ninyodo gawa River, but I am generally very satisfied.

We stayed ２ nights on our trip to Kochi in October 2020. The hotel was undergoing a large-scale repair work on the outer wall and there was a scaffolding around. Parking is free, but the first parking lot just beside the hotel can only park about 10 cars, so you will park in a parking lot a little far away when you are full. Arrived around 14 o'clock, but I was able to check in. The front desk staff is not stationed during the day, so the room key is good. When you need it, you can call the staff at the front desk bell, and there is nothing wrong with it. Breakfast is provided free of charge from 7:30 in the lobby, but this time the staff at the dining room also served as the front desk business. We are trying to reduce costs by thoroughly saving labor. The content of the breakfast was mainly Japanese food, and Western food was about bread, salad and drink, but it is glad to eat this for free. １ There is a ”Yakuyu bath” behind the front desk on the floor, but there are only １, so it is a men and women change system on the day of the week and time. The washroom was about ４ and the bathtub was about tatami mats, but the smell of medicinal herbs was healed. We stayed on weekdays, but the morning bath is only for men, and it is switched from women to men at 20 o'clock at night, so women are quite difficult to use. On weekends, men and women seemed to be changing their time. Not a new hotel, so you feel less 々 old in the room and hotel facilities. Compact twin room, storage space is insufficient. The hanger rack is also narrow and ４ hanging is full, but there was a stick in the free rental goods placed in the elevator side space. １ In front of the front floor, you can put daily necessities such as cotton swabs and body sponges, and you can feel the devise in detail. It was a perfect hotel for the sightseeing starting point of Tosa Shimizu, Shimanto gawa River, Shimanto gawa River, with a warm service with cheap accommodation fee.
