3-Star Hotels in Ehime Prefecture, Japan

The owner's wife and a female staff member gave us a very detailed explanation. The facilities were very clean. There was a designated bicycle parking shed, so we felt safe. The hostel was nice, so we were able to relax and enjoy our stay.

The JR Clement Inn is next door to the train station which is very nice if you're in town due to the Shimanami Kaido trail. Given the price point of the hotel, it delivers. They offered free drinks in the evening, including sake, and while we did not have their breakfast buffet, it appeared to be very good. Rooms were clean and spacious and location is very tough to beat.

Nice hotel in a good location. Close to the train/bus station making it easy to get in and out of the city. Walking distance to the castle and then onward to Dogo onsen. 45 minutes walk from Dogo onsen back to the hotel.  Friendly staff and service Breakfast is below average.  Only provided one pillow which was soso.  Overall a good stay - would stay again.

Pros: Breakfast was great and getting it included was not too expensive. Location is pretty good, just 4 min was from nearest tram station and walkable to many restaurants and Matsuyama Castle. Cons: room was a bit dusty and the bathroom had a bad smell.

They treat Western guests with far more enthusiasm. When checking in alongside Western guests, the front desk staff only escorted them to their floor, completely ignoring Asian guests like me. It's 2026, and this kind of preferential treatment for Westerners is so out of touch and frankly, a bit embarrassing. On top of that, the duvet cover was torn. Is the hotel really struggling that much? 😓 I'm staying here for three nights purely because I can't be bothered to switch hotels. Matsuyama Castle is quite nice, though. As an established hotel in Matsuyama, I'd hope for a bit more class and professionalism. Also, the room is a bit cramped; it's difficult to open a 30-inch suitcase.

Gintengai and Okaido. Everything you need is there, and you can live comfortably as if it were a little flat. It even includes a rice cooker. The lovely cleaning team cleans the flat upon request via message. If you leave the rubbish bags out by the door, they take them for you. A hoover is included in the room, so there is no need for everyday cleaning by the team. We hoovered and cleaned the floor with the wipes they provided. I cannot recommend this place enough. It is an absolutely fantastic place to stay. The only downside could be the thin walls; however, it is a quiet neighbourhood, and we had quiet people staying next door and upstairs, so it was no problem at all.

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.

The hotel is very new and clean inside. It’s conveniently located near AEON, and the parking area is spacious. There are many restaurants around and two large supermarkets nearby. I stayed here for three nights during my business trip in the area. The front desk staff were friendly, but I wish they had given clearer instructions about the elevator, laundry, breakfast, and public bath. If you come to Imabari for business or sightseeing, this hotel is definitely worth staying at.

We had a super warm welcome by the owner couples.They are the nicest and inspiring people I ever met!The house is clean and you can find skillful crafts everywhere in it.We had everything we needed.There are manga books in English and Japanese gimmick toys for leisure.Three types of bedrooms all is spacious and cozy.Location is perfect,beautiful sea view from the kitchen window. Beach is steps away.Neighborhood is quiet and nice.

Another JR Clement hotel along the way of our cycling Shikoku which is met with the same quality level as expected. Great location, clean room and excellent staff services. We arrived the hotel at around 12:30pm. Although check in time should be 3pm but we are given the room after a hard day riding in the rain. Good value for money too. Breakfast is very good, just what we need to finish off our last leg back to Matsuyama.
