9.4/10 Exceptional! (781 reviews)

This hotel is within easy walking distance of the train station, castle, gardens and just across the road from the Omicho market. The room was a good size with a futon bed. But not much space for anyone with lots of luggage. The onsen was lovely with just one large pool set at ~42C. Breakfast was the highlight and really set this hotel apart - a box of fresh seafood, rice, pickles and miso soup as well as green tea was beautifully presented and delicious. Staff were always present to help with check in. And there was a self service luggage storage in the foyer.
