Sunhills Mikawawan

We stayed in a room with an observation bath. The views from the lobby and the room were beautiful. We were blessed with good weather, and the sunset and sunrise were beautiful. The room was well cleaned, but the ceiling in the bathroom was terribly stained with what looked like mold, which was a shame considering it was a great bath. If it's difficult to clean, I think the atmosphere would change if they repainted it with something like anti-mold paint. We had the "Kaiko" plan for our meal. The live abalone was good, but a little on the small side. The sashimi also didn't seem fresh, which was disappointing.

We stayed at a room with a hot spring. Thanks to this, we were able to escape reality, and with the beautiful views from our room, both during the day and at night, it felt as if time had stopped. We understand that maintaining a hot spring in the room must be a lot of work, so being able to choose your meal times is great! We are grateful. However, we feel that if they could separate the dining tables with partitions or something, it would create a much more relaxing dining space. It was with great reluctance that we checked out, and we will definitely stay here again.

This is an average rating, but in a good sense. The grilled abalone was quite large, which was impressive. Breakfast was also delicious. This time, there were many guests with small children, so couples who want to eat quietly in the dining area may find it annoying. The open-air bath was available to us in the late evening, as it was all to ourselves, so we were able to relax very comfortably. The front desk staff and waiters were very polite. Overall, we were able to relax without having to worry too much.

I visited with my parents, aged 90 and 83. This is the third time we have stayed here. They provide a shuttle service to the station, the front desk staff are very friendly, and there are comfortable sofas in the lobby overlooking Mikawa Bay. The water is slimy and feels like a hot spring. However, the floor is slippery, so please be careful. (^_-) The food is full of local ingredients and the portions are just right, so we were very satisfied. There are not many types of souvenirs, but there are some recommended ones, such as high-quality sweets made with Gamagori mandarin oranges, soft Mikawa cotton cloth products, and flavorful green laver miso soup. Laguna Gamagori is nearby, so you can buy and eat seafood, and play at the theme park.

Every year in early summer and late autumn, I take my elderly parents on a trip, and this time I visited here. The location is at the top of a steep hill that leads up the mountain from the Mitani Onsen intersection. There is a Family Mart convenience store 1-2 minutes away in the direction of Nagoya. Because it is located on a hill, you can see Mikawa Bay and Takeshima from the lounge and the ocean-facing rooms. Our room was room 316, a Japanese-style bedroom on the mountain side. Because it is on the corner of the building, we could barely see the ocean. The hot spring water supply facility was damaged in heavy rain about 10 days ago, so the large public bath on the day was boiled water, but the indoor bath is large compared to the number of rooms, so we were able to take a leisurely bath even though it seemed to be almost full. We had dinner and breakfast at a table in the hall on the same floor as the large public bath. Both breakfast and dinner were served as set menus, and both were very satisfying. The beer was my favorite, Premium Malts, both draft and bottled. Two room keys were provided, and there were slipper clips in the bath. The atmosphere is similar to that of the public lodging facility Kyuka Mura, but when you consider the quality and quantity of food and the cost of accommodation, this may be the winner. Prices vary depending on the dinner course and the room you choose, but we had the standard dinner (which came with small grilled abalone, and was very filling), and with the nationwide discount, it came to just over 10,000 yen per person. This time, I gave it a 4 star rating because there was a problem with the bath and the furnishings in the room were a little damaged, but it is a good lodging with excellent value for money. Thank you very much for your hospitality.

The special kaiseki dinner was very luxurious, and the sashimi platter with spiny lobster on top was especially delicious. The miso soup also used the head of a lobster in the broth, so we enjoyed spiny lobster twice. This wonderful inn had it all: delicious food, a great view of Mikawa Bay from the hilltop, and a natural hot spring called "Bihakusen." The prices were also reasonable, and it was a great place to stay. They had a ping pong table available for rental, so the kids had a lot of fun. I would definitely come back with my family.
