Stayed two nights at Onomichi Kokusai to do the Shiminami Kaido cycling route and really enjoyed my stay. The shuttle bus is a good perk (shoutout to Toshi the afternoon driver who was the best and so genuinely fun to chat with and helpful. Give him a raise!) but otherwise it’s a 20 min walk to the center of town where the station is. If you come in earlier in the day before check in time, keep in mind that there will not be shuttle buses running available. And when you do want to take a shuttle bus, you have to book via a site 15 mins prior to departure time which is exactly on time.
There’s also shuttle service to the public baths which I made use of and it’s cheaper than buying the voucher from the hotel than from the onsen directly.
No complaints about cleanliness and the room suites my needs. I’d definitely stay again if I do the cycling route again!
Hotel was clean and conveniently located near a family mart. Service was great! We managed to check in and send our luggages with the assistance of the staff smoothly. The hotel gym is 24hrs as well - it is an Anytime fitness gym - fully equipped gym. Very pleased with the equipment inside. You can gain access by going to the front desk for some key card, or you can just use your own AF keyfob.
Room however, was very small for 2 packs even with small-mid sized luggages.
In despite of other reviews we where not satified.
The standard double room was claustrofobic narrow.
The airco breezes so hard that we almost freeze or the opposite sweating out. And we slept in many hotels over the world but never in a four star rated hotel where there was no tea available. Not in the room or in the restaurant. neither at the breakfast.
So far overpriced!!
👍 Our room was not so clean so we spoke to the receptionist who was kind and gave us the opportunity to change to another room which was a little better. The biggest issue was that both rooms were very humid and warm since the AC did not work.

ผผู้เข้าพักThe hotel offers aesthetically impressive rooms that match the pictures, with the breathtaking view surpassing all expectations in person. The staff also provided excellent service in accommodating food intolerances. Unfortunately, the culinary experience was disappointing; the food was too mild and underwhelming for the price paid. Furthermore, the Onsen facility was inadequate: it lacked variety with only 2 warm pools and a steam sauna, offered no varying water temperatures (and the cold plunge pool was not cold enough). Additionally, the desired peaceful atmosphere was disrupted by having more of a socializing gathering in the onsen, which lowered the overall impression and value of the wellness area. In summary: excellent rooms but we would have expected more value for money regarding the food and spa.
