Hotel Dengan Gym di Ehime Prefecture, Japan

A nice hotel with full hotel services minus Onsen. It is a little dated but services and staffs are great. There are four restaurants and Akiyoshi is the reputable one offering sea bream to be eaten in four ways. The hotel is next to Mitsukoshi and Okaido. The walking street is also linked to Takashimaya.

I had booked this hotel last-minute after completing the Shimanami-Kaido and I couldn't have been happier! It simply is the tallest building in the WHOLE IMABARI! The view from my room facing the town and the mighty Kurushima Kaikyo Bridge was incredible, I could nllt stop staring! There is a drugstore and a Lawson a 2min walk from the hotel as well as a Uniqlo and plenty of restaurants. The breakfast cost 2500yen so it's expensive but IMO worth it. The hotel has several businesses in it as it's a massive building including a branch of Imabari towels and I'm glad I was able to purchase some. The hotel has its own onsen but it's not free. However, it's only for paying guests so it is never too busy. There is a sauna, ice-cold pool, an outdoor stone bath and a huge indoor one. My room was big with plenty of sunlight. Overall, my stay here was amazing.
