Hotel Crown Hills Iwaki

Check-in was smooth. It's a 10-minute walk from Iwaki Station. There's a large public bath, but the water quality is so-so. Welcome drinks and unlimited coffee are available. Check-out time is early, only until 10 PM. The room is small and feels rather cramped. Especially since the curtains were hanging over the blankets, it didn't feel very comfortable. Also, the air conditioner, exhaust fan, and air purifier were very noisy, and the air conditioner was pointing directly at the bed, so I had to turn it off overnight. It was too dry. However, the advantage is that the price is not high on Saturdays. There's a good Chinese restaurant nearby called Fu Xing.

The hotel is in a good location and has parking available for a fee of 700 yen per night. The breakfast was good. The dining room has a minimalist style; the space is a bit limited but cozy. Overall, it was okay.

I've also used the Onahama location. This time, I stayed at the Iwaki hotel for the first time, and the woman at the front desk and the Nepalese trainee were very nice.

By typical Japanese business hotel standards, the rooms are new and clean, and the breakfast is good.

The front desk staff were very helpful. I was glad they offered alcohol as a welcome drink. I was able to relax and warm up in the large public bath.

great experience

Stayed in a single room for one night in May 2024 [Pros] - The room was clean. [Cons] - No explanation of amenities or bath facilities was given at check-in. - The bathroom dressing room was small. - I couldn't find the size of the loungewear next to the elevator. - The convenience store was a little far away. - The walls were thin, so I could hear noises from the next room. [Overall Review] This business hotel is located about a 5-minute walk from Iwaki Station.

It was good. The customer service was excellent and the check-in process was smooth.
