Hotel Hot Springs di Kochi Prefecture, Japan

I stayed here last year as well. It was such a great experience that I wanted to stay here again this year, so I chose this hotel. The quality of the food seemed to have improved compared to last year. The bonito tataki was delicious. Also, the breakfast area was conveniently located, and they made efforts to avoid overcrowding, which was great. I'll definitely choose this hotel when I visit Kochi Prefecture again.

Amazing view of the Niyodo River with a delicious kaiseki dinner! We had a comfortable stay and enjoyed the onsen!

Cannot ask for more from this hotel. Everything is perfect. We have the best accomodation in here while in Shikoku, where we have stayed in 9 hotels. It was simply the best. The environment is recluse, though it is highly accessible with cars. The star-gazing experience in onsen is once in a lifetime. It was magical to bath under the starry night. The dining experience is exceptional, though it is a little pricey, compare to the dinner we have throught Shikoku. Still, I highly recommend to try the Japanese-style course The Manna provided.

The room is rather small. The bed is OK but the pillow is too small and not comfortable. The onsen is of course the attraction. The room itself less. Kochi is an excellent place for local delicacies.

We had the most amazing time at Sodayama Onzen. It is a very special place to relax and unwind. Our room had a private onsen overloooking a stream in the forest. The rooms were very spacious and clean. We also enjoyed the amazing food! It was a very special experience but way too much, especially in the mornings. But it was a great experience of fine Japanese cuisine. The staff was so friendly, communication with google translate helped.

The all-inclusive plan included delicious breakfast, a dinner buffet, and the lounge, leaving us full the whole time and very satisfied! Guests included families, young groups, and people of all ages and genders. Our room had an ocean view, and the sunset was beautiful. The hot springs also had a sauna and open-air bath. There was also a hot spring lounge, creating a luxurious space where you could relax!

Excellent service experience, very convenient transportation, easy to get to without any problems. Beautiful mountain views, spacious rooms, free laundry, and a large hot spring and bathhouse.

I just happened to see a hotel in Taipei in order to eat at an izakaya. The room was large, but the facilities were old and the hot spring was small. I didn’t know why there were floating objects in the hot spring that day... Someone must have done something unhygienic. I hope the hotel can be repaired at any time. Confirm the hygiene level of the hot spring. The breakfast is very good, simple and delicious, and the scenery is great. It is a good place to relax. The only inconvenience is that there is an access control. You need to return to the hotel before 10 o'clock, or call in advance to inform you that you will be late!

Shiojikan, well done! Kochi Prefecture's GDP is the second lowest in Japan, so I didn't have high expectations for Shiojikan, but it turned out to be surprisingly good! The facilities were comfortable, and the food was delicious. The onsen is a typical Japanese hot spring, but unlike others, it has a cold plunge pool. And the toiletries are absolutely, incredibly, amazingly good! I would definitely recommend this hotel to any friends who are visiting.

A perfectly situated city hotel ideal for enjoying the food and drink scene in Shimanto, boasting meticulous cleaning. While the building's age is undeniable, the rooms and breakfast area are impeccably clean, reflecting the staff's attentive management. There's also a large public bath with separate times for men and women, perfect for unwinding after a long day of travel. Its excellent location provides easy access to the restaurant district, making it ideal for those who want to savor local cuisine. However, it's about 2km from the station, requiring a taxi ride (approximately 880 yen), and the lack of air purifiers and humidifiers in the rooms is a drawback. A Montbell store on the first floor makes it convenient for purchasing outdoor gear. The staff's dedication compensates for the older facilities, making it a safe and comfortable place to stay.
