"We loved all of the amenities of this hotel. There is a room with two massage chairs for guests to use, of course the onsen which was lovely. They offer free ice cream or popsicles in the afternoon. The rooms are small but very clean and comfortable. Good location. An easy walk to the castles and restaurants."

"Delicious breakfasts and dinner. Kind, friendly staff. Amazing spa bath and spacious living quarters just a short walk to Dogo Onsen. It was a lovely and relaxing experience. I would most definitely stay here again."

"Wonderful place to stay! Very kind staff, convenient location and cozy, quiet place. The only downside was no cooking equipment for the room and the walls were very thin, so you hear noise pretty easily from inside the building. "

Loved the room and private bath. Beds were super comfortable as well. I would say it was like a memory foam bed. It was like the bed I have at home. Loved it. Staff was very nice as well. Breakfast was delicious as well.

Perfect location close to transportation lines, historic sites, gardens and affordable food options. The free breakfast offers an abundant variety for all palettes and a stunning view of Matsuyama castle and a historic French home. The two on-site restaurants are pricey, but the food is delicious and cheaper eateries are nearby.

This is a newer hotel right next to the iconic Dogo Onsen building. Super easy to don a yukata (included use with room) and go to the Dogo original which has been recently restored to it’s prior glory, and the Dogo annex which features a cool projection system to bring the bath tile murals to life. Breakfast is a wonderful Japanese menu served at the sushi restaurant on the first floor. With the street car station, both Dogo and the rest of what Matsuyama has to offer is within reach.

The jet tub and massage chair were especially nice after a long walk. Room service was fast and the food was quite good. The drinks could have been a little more flavorful but the experience was very nice.
