I stayed here in Late August. The Location was fantastic, right across from the Dogo Onsen and an easy walk from the Dogo Onsen tram stop. I also highly recommend going to Matsuyama Castle. It's the best castle i've visited in Japan. Unlike Osaka Castle, the interior is still in it's original state with interesting displays. The view from the... More

This hotel is reasonably priced and decently nice. The location makes it excellent. It is right next to the Dogo Onsen, and therefore it is right on the Roman Train line. That's the little train that goes around Matsuyama, so it's easy to hop on to visit Matsuyama Castle, the temples, etc. The staff was helpful and accommodating. I would... More

Right next door to a huge old onsen (spa), to which the Hotel gave us passes. Good experience! We liked the hotel front desk people, who even managed to find some oil for the wheels on my husband's luggage.My husband was really charmed by Matsuyama and these bright young fellows in the employ of the Hotel.

We chose this hotel partly because of the previous favourable reviews, partly for its location and also because it seemed good value. We booked directly with the hotel, using the links from their website. You may need to click a few 'buttons' if the Japanese version appears to find the English language version which, strangely, is different from the Japanese... More

It is hard to imagine a better location for a hotel in Matsuyama. Right at the end of the streetcar line and across the road from the Dogo Onsen. Rooms are small (think European) but pleasantly laid out. An unfortunate bit of smell from the restaurant vents which are on the lower (front) portion of the hotel; but this is... More

Fantastic location -- in nicer area of Matsuyama right next to the Dogo Onsen and small walking mall; around the corner from Bocchan Clock and Foot Soaking Fountain/ Dogo Onsen Tram Stop; short walk to Dogo Onsen Park . Hotel is about 25 min. ride on the tram from Matsuyama JR Station. Stayed in a Double-C type room (non-smoking) for... More

Very friendly place to stay - great location right next door to the famous Onsen. Staff very friendly and they spoke good English. Answered emails quickly as well

I agree with the other reviewers that this is a great hotel with very friendly staff. We were thrilled with the location right across from the Dogo Onsen (the oldest onsen in Japan!) and our room was on a corner overlooking the onsen. We booked online with our laptop just a few days ahead while we were in Kyoto but... More

What a pleasant surprise to be dropped off at such a beautiful hotel and surrounding area!! This is such a pretty area of Matsuyama and nothing about it disappoints! Dogo Onsen and surrounds is historically wonderful! And the hotel truly is right across from it. The manager is an extremely helpful young man who communicates well in English and who... More
