Hotels With Parking in Kochi Prefecture, Japan

Parking is competitive - we have to park at the carpark opposite JR Kochi for our first night but managed to snag a spot the second night. Staff is helpful and friendly. Location is good especially if you are travelling by JR but is quite a walking distance to the attractions eg, Hirome Market, Kochi Castle etc. There are convenience stores nearby where we bought snacks and enjoy the free coffee at the hotel lounge. We are glad breakfast is provided too as it can be a little difficult to find eateries nearby, and it is delicious. Room is clean and size is acceptable by Japan standard.

The hotel is dated but has lots of charm! Yes, the fittings and furniture is old and outdated but everything is working as it should. The room (twin room) was generous in space by Japan standards. Here are some plus points about the hotel: 1) The windows can be opened fully to allow generous amounts of wind in (not the usual small openings). 2) The hotel staff are so generous and kind, they allowed us to check-in early and check-out late without charge! This is also the reason why we will definitely stay here again if we are in Kochi. 3) Hotel is located in the heart of all the bars (there were hoards of salarymen hanging around the area in the night and it gets very lively) 4) It’s a cosy hotel with no frills (so bring your own shampoo and conditioner if you are fussy about it). To manage your expectations, note the following: 1) It’s an old establishment, so don’t expect everything to be sparkling new or matching. No usb outlet charging as well. 2) Due to the location, you might hear lots of street noise if you open the windows at night. All in all, a wonderful little charming hotel, run by people who have the interests of their guests. Highly recommended!

The room is very clean and space is very good in Japan standard. The front desk staff are super helpful. I wanted to open a bottle of wine and didn't have a wine opener. When I asked the front desk staff. He tried his best to help and unfortunately there was not a wine opener and I borrowed a beer opener instead. Just a few minutes later, I managed to open the wine using the beer opener and I went down to the front desk to return the opener. When lift door opened, I saw the front staff wanted to get into the lift with a screwdriver and 2 screws in his hand. I was really so touched when I saw him not giving up and still wanted to help me. I am totally zero to Japanese, and I can't remember the gentleman's name unfortunately. I really want to say a big thank you to the gentleman who tried his best to help me. The location of the hotel is good with a supermarket and a convenient shop next door. There a massage chair in the room for guests to use at FOC. I you drive, there is car park on-site and it's free.

When we first arrived the front desk told us that we reserved a smoking room. In the trip.com booking it does not say so though. The front desk said all similar rooms for non-smoking were booked out. We went up to the room but it smelled so bad that we asked agin for a different room showing them the booking. According to the hotel the booking was not directly forward to them by trip.com but by a different service therefore it varied from our actual booking. They were nice enough to give us a different room which was non-smoking. Unfortunately the room still smelled strange - at least no smoke smell. Additionally there was almost no hot water coming out from the tap. In the photo the hot water was fully turned on. Another issue was the parking. The one night stay fee was 1000 Yen (not for 24h). We checked out at 11 a.m. but decided to eat lunch in town and leave the car at the hotel parking. We took out the car at 2 pm and had to pay an additional fee of 1200 yen.

The hotel is about a ten to fifteen-minute walk from Nakamura Station. However, its proximity to souvenir shops, restaurants, and convenience stores makes it quite convenient. Just be aware that the nearby restaurant closes at 9 PM. Breakfast is a complimentary buffet for guests. I can only say the Oden was delicious, but everything else was rather subpar. It was fully booked due to Golden Week, so I couldn't switch to a non-smoking room. However, the window could be opened for fresh air and ventilation, and there was also a humidifier in the room, so I was still reasonably satisfied.

Great hotel. Super friendly staff. Love the way they use the translator mic and very efficient. The room design is to the “point”. I will defintely recommend it for solo traveller or “medium-built” couple. Bath is ok, resting area is good, unfortunately did not go for breakfast/ dinner. If i m back to Kochin, will stay again.

the hotel room is nice , best shower even in Japan. but the sink is too low, good size for the child , too low for an adult the hotel has swimming pool, the pool is belong to the gym , normally require the membership ,but you just need to show the counter that you are staying in the hotel they will let you in. if you dont have the swimming suit, they have the swimming suit to borrow which was nice . they don't really speak English, that was a little tough to communicate. they have laundry machine at 3rd floor to use. the breakfast was acceptable , if you are foreigner, like western food , they have croissant, chocolate bread, salad, bacon. it was a good stay.

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

Within 5 minutes walk from Kochi Train Station to the hotel. Not much eateries in the immediate 5 minutes radius but if you take a 10 minutes walk down or 5 minutes tram ride, you can find an entire street of local shopping and eateries. Do visit the Hirome Market and Kochi Castle which is nearby too! Hotel receptionist do not speak much English but they are super hospitable and easy to communicate via English with them using an amazing translation device they have! Had to do luggage delivery service and they were super helpful! Would definitely stay in this hotel the next time we visit Kochi!

It took a two-hour bus ride from JR Nakamura Station! The moment I entered the hotel, I was completely captivated. It was so beautiful! I stayed in a standard room, which was perfect. The hot springs were amazing, but honestly, the walk from the indoor to the outdoor baths was quite long. Don't worry, it's definitely far. The Italian restaurant at the hotel was amazing! The food was so good! The meal cost more than the hotel itself! 🥸 The stargazing experience at night is a must! It was breathtaking! There were so many stars!
