3-Star Hotels in Ehime Prefecture, Japan

Hotel is in a great spot for doing Shimanami Kado cycling route. Breakfast has a good selection. Room size is reasonably ok for Japan hotels. Room is able to store bike if needed

I was very impressed with this hotel as I had read some reviews that mentioned it is a little older than the average property but it was sparkling clean with lovely facilities and guest rooms. The location is perfect for visiting the three famous onsen hot springs facilities and the hotel actually provide special clothing to make visiting the onsens easier and more authentic. Parking is available for a fee and there is a small restaurant/bar onsite. This is a ripper of a hotel.

This really is the legendary couples' hotel, definitely not suitable for those with small children (you know what I mean!). But seriously, this is the biggest room I've ever stayed in in Japan!!! The room was so big we could open both our suitcases without them getting in the way. The bed was definitely a king-size. They also offer breakfast and free parking. All in all, for me, there are no downsides!!! I loved everything about it. I would definitely stay again.

這個民宿的空間很大！廚房洗衣機設施樣樣齊全！我們買了愛媛黑毛A5和牛回來煮！那個油花簡直美出太空！人生第一次吃牛肉的感覺！可能是我淺薄了吧…但真的非常好吃好吃好吃！民宿位置比較偏，來回路程比較遠，但還是能步行的距離，離主要的景區也不太算遠吧，比較我們有運動的習慣！松山城真的非常壯觀！風景超美！松山的鯛魚飯真的太驚艷我了，連續2天都在吃！道後温泉區是遊客區，商業街繁多，商業太濃厚了我不喜歡，反而那個免費泡腳的非常舒服，泡了兩回，第一回發現泡完的腳居然非常光滑！接着回來又泡一頓！哇哇哇！連腳死皮角質層都給泡軟化掉，平時在國內老塗護膚品都不行還需要掛掉死皮，在那裡神奇的被泡消失掉…這是什麼神仙水啊？？？我由於生理期所以沒有在道後温泉泡温泉，泡了腳！非常完美的旅程！

Location 1 Directly across from Imabari Port, 3 minutes? It was so wonderful. The view of Imabari Castle from the room was great. 2. Service: Absolutely fantastic. This was my first time seeing a place that offered unlimited candy and chocolates. So, of course, they had bath products like toothpaste, toothbrushes, and razors, and they also had about 10 different bath bombs (if you bought them at a store, you'd have to pay at least 3,000 won each, but they provided 10 different types for free). It was amazing and fascinating. 3. Breakfast: The best. Even if you pay out of pocket or pay extra, you absolutely must try this hotel's breakfast. They cook it right in front of you early in the morning—you can watch it being prepared. Not only the Japanese set menu, but even the toast is truly top-notch. Grilled sea bream is always served as a side dish, and it's even better than at a regular restaurant. They also serve fantastic fried eggs, a uniquely Japanese half-moon shape—when you cut it open with a spoon, it's slightly soft-boiled and bursts with a burst of flavor. If you're visiting Imabari, be sure to stay here. Are there any guests? I wanted to eat breakfast and dinner - if you pay extra at the hotel, you don't have to go to an outside restaurant. You can have it served until 3 p.m. There are no seats available during meal times, lol. While there are a lot of people at the hotel, it's quiet. I really, really recommend this hotel. Oh, you can take the bus to Imabari Futo Station. I took the bus from Matsuyama to Imabari and back. The bus fare was 1,200 yen. ^^ The bus was really convenient and on time. It never arrived even a minute late.

Good location. The hotel locates near Matsuyama City Tram Station where is also the terminal station of airport bus. Matsuyama port is just 20 minutes train ride away. One may walk up to the Matsuyama Castle from the hotel within 40 minutes. The castle tram station and the Okaido shopping area are also within walking distance. Staff were friendly with satisfactory services and amenities. However it was always crowded at breakfast time. Be reminded it's Matsuyama City Station but not the JR Matsuyama Station (JR).

Being right next to Okaido, it was incredibly convenient to get around Matsuyama. Especially with the rail pass, I could ride the tram for free. I was very satisfied with the hotel, and the room was spacious and comfortable for a solo traveler. Please note that the bathroom and toilet are separate, and the TV is wall-mounted, so no HDMI connection is available.

This hotel is very conveniently located. It's within walking distance of the ropeway to Matsuyama Castle and very close to trams going in both directions around the city center. My wife and I would definitely stay here again; it's less congested than the Dogo Onsen area. The staff are all very kind. The bed was very comfortable.

Although the accommodation wasn't a new building, it was clean and nice, perhaps because it was well-maintained. It was close to the Okaido Shopping Street, making it easy to enjoy the many things there. Matsuyama Castle was also within walking distance. I think it took about 10 minutes (it felt too short, considering I took morning and evening walks). Breakfast didn't offer a huge selection, but it was filled with delicious dishes, including mackerel, jakoten, and a daily changing selection of meats. I was surprised by how sweet the paprika in the salad was (I still laugh thinking about it). I don't like salad, but I kept eating the paprika (it was by far the best paprika I've ever had). The location was also less than a five-minute walk from the tram stop. If I had to point out a downside, it would be that, like most accommodations in Japan, it felt cramped and there were quite a few bars and restaurants nearby that were open late at night. Other than that, it was very pleasant.

The location is excellent, very close to the JR station, making it super convenient. While the room was a bit on the small side, it was impeccably clean. A really nice touch was the self-service amenity bar on the second floor, offering a wide variety of toiletries. Very thoughtful!
