Hot Springs Hotels in Kochi Prefecture, Japan

We stopped at the southern town of Kochi during our Shikoku cycling challenging around the island. It was a long day after 130km from Shishiku but finally arrived at the Dormy Inn at around 3:30pm. Location wise it’s excellent as it is at the heart of the shopping district with many shops and restaurants nearby. The hotel is bike friendly allowing us to take the bike into our room. Amenities is excellent and room is clean although a tad smaller than expected. In general I am happy with our decision staying at the Dormy Inn of Kochi.

今回平日なのに周りのホテルが高くて同じくらい出すなら、ということでここに決定。 部屋は洋室か和室か未定だったので分からず、初めて一人で和室に。 綺麗な部屋で広い、いや一人では広すぎるかも。 トイレと風呂は別の部屋。にもかかわらず広い。 他のホテルと違うのは、ポットにお湯が入ってる状態でもう一つ冷水も用意してある。 エレベーターの隣に階段がある。火事の時など分かりやすい。 駐車場からいったん出してもらい帰ってきたら覚えていた。ナンバーが同じでしたのでと。脱帽です。 悪い所はないのかというと、トイレの手を洗うところの下の水道管が汚れかさびがあり残念。使用すると目立つ所なので要改善。 おすすめのホテルです。

This trip has chosen a hotel closer to the 36th! A restaurant with beautiful sea views, the outdoor pool is also well designed. The counter staff was very patient. On the eve of the typhoon, many buses changed their shifts. The hotel staff also drove us to the bus stop sign with the departure bus! Really sincerely thank you 🙏 Highly recommended!

The hotel is in a very remote place. If you don't drive by yourself, it takes 15 minutes by bus. There are only a few buses a day, so transportation is inconvenient. The room is on the underground floor, facing the trees at the back. The interior of the house is decorated in wood color, but the bathroom is in the style of an old-style hot spring hotel. The hotel has indoor and outdoor hot springs, but the outdoor hot springs are not hot enough. Due to its remote location and few street lights around, you can see many stars when you look up.

The room we stayed in was very spacious. The onsen was really amazing, quite huge that could accommodate the many other guests who booked at the same time with us at the peak of the golden week. We availed the buffet dinner, where we luckily got discounts from our All Accor membership. The dinner buffet has a wide selection of food and drinks. They also had a buffet breakfast which was quite good.

Cannot ask for more from this hotel. Everything is perfect. We have the best accomodation in here while in Shikoku, where we have stayed in 9 hotels. It was simply the best. The environment is recluse, though it is highly accessible with cars. The star-gazing experience in onsen is once in a lifetime. It was magical to bath under the starry night. The dining experience is exceptional, though it is a little pricey, compare to the dinner we have throught Shikoku. Still, I highly recommend to try the Japanese-style course The Manna provided.

This is an old hotel in the suburbs of Kochi. It is the tallest building in the area at a glance. It is located on the banks of the Niyodo River and has a very good environment. The equipment looked old, there were small bugs on the tatami, and there were many small flying insect bodies in the open-air hot spring, but I didn't find it too disgusting, haha. The dinner set is delicious, and there is also Dandan noodles for midnight snacks.

Excellent location with shopping stores and restaurants nearby.A heated room with windows that can be opened is a big plus.The man at the front desk speaks really good English!Very close to the famous wild eel restaurant.

温泉も気持ち良く、ゆっくり過ごせました。 夕食の時のステーキ、脂が多いお肉なので、ミディアム以上の焼き方が良かったかも？お腹いっぱいになりました。 ゆっくり、のんびり過ごすにはお勧めです。
