Very easy stay. The front staff were excellent, one of whom was particularly elegant (you know who you are). Lots of cultural history around there, and a lovely Cento on the coast, and the Yellow train... Not big time Japan, more ordinary but still special. I recommend.

Close to Castle ruins, park, nice walk in the morning before going to work. 15 min walk to the train station.

An idyllic, tranquil, traditional residence, with all the modern conveniences that one could ask for . The host couldn’t do enough for us. Thank you Victoria!

The Hotel is spectacular the decor is a little dated but that is part of the opulent charm. The shuttle bus from Okayama station was a welcomed relief as the hotel is set upon a hill but is fine without luggage in tow. As we arrived a pianist playing wonderful relaxing renditions of well known songs was in the reception (perfect after an early start and a pre check in arrival but not sure how often he plays there). The service at the hotel was faultless everyone we encountered gave us a luxurious experience. English isn't widely spoken but with the aid of a translation app everything was dealt with professionally and smoothly. THAT VIEW!!! When we got to our room we were blown away by the beautiful view of Okayama which only got better as the sun started setting, the absolute main reason to choose this hotel. There is a floor with heated communal baths (male and female) again with stunning views! I did not go as i wanted to respect the instruction of no tattoos My husband however loved this facility and used it every evening of our stay. On that floor there are also various vending machines (beer, soft drinks and ice cream), a cool down room and a room with a treadmill and bike machine and massage chairs. We ate at the basement restaurant which was lovely traditional Japanese food (was a shame the top floor restaurant wasn't open we would have booked there too) Great selection of breakfast items available. Thank you for a wonderful stay The walk to the tram service and local shop was only around 15-20 minutes down hill. Mild level of fitness required if walking back.
