Miyoshi Hotels with Bars

Excellenf facilities, from the big western japanese room to the onsen near the river. The room was very comfortable and quiet, its windows opened to a beautiful view of the rivers and the orange bridge. Check-in was a little slow and the breakfast consisted of many small dishes none of which we liked very much (it looked good though). Overall a very comfortable base to ecplore Iya if you have your own car/ motorcycle.

I was worried about getting around the Iya Valley in December without a car, but everything was so easy when I stayed here. I took a bus in from Ōboke Station directly to the ryokan. It was a five minute walk to the main vine bridge. And I was able to take buses to the scarecrow village and to the Iya Onsen (for a bit of pampering). The location was fabulous, but the stay was nice too. The room was big, with traditional tatami mats, a futon, and even a yukata. The communal bath was big and nice. And the host was very friendly. I'd definitely stay again! ありがとうございます😊

This is a hotel with history and old-style style. The advantage is that the mother-in-law at the counter is very hospitable and smart. She uses an English translator to introduce the hotel and communicate with us. This is a traditional old-style Japanese hot spring hotel. There is a parking space for self-driving tours. , and it is convenient to go to nearby attractions in Dabu Jie. The breakfast is exquisite and delicious. The disadvantage is that the hotel is old, of course, older and does not have independent toilets and baths. It depends on what experience the guests want.

We stayed for 1 night with 2 adults. We will describe 4 points on the stay and 2 points on the point that we were worried about. ■ Good point (1) The dinner was delicious We stayed in a quiet period. I tried to make a plan of less than 20,000 yen per person via OTA. There were a menu like cherry blossoms, amego, cherry blossoms, awao chicken, pig and Tokushima. I think the volume was quite good. The people at the next table were not eaten out. The only subtle thing was about tempura. The tempura was the impression that it was over time after fried. (2) There was a smoking room For smokers, smoking rooms were essential. It is a hotel that loves smokers also value. You can stay with peace of mind. There is also a smoking room on the floor where the front desk is located.(3) There was a loan of cables The charging cable for the smartphone was broken during the trip. When I consulted at the front desk, I asked for a charging cable. I was asking for an extension code rental in advance, but I was prepared in the room properly without forgetting. I was impressed that the work was a neat hotel. (4) The GoTo in Miyoshi City The GoTo campaign was only in Miyoshi city. I couldn't pay for the accommodation fee, but I was able to get a coupon ticket of 4000 yen (4 1000 yen tickets) for two people at check-in. The sightseeing such as the big walk was finished, so the next morning, I was charged for gasoline at the gas station in the city. The gasoline was about 3500 yen. I think the time when the GoTo campaign in Miyoshi city is being carried out is a chance to stay. It is the same calculation as the 2000 yen draw per person. There is no change. ■ I was worried (1) There was a distance to the bath and dinner venue The room has a self-cruel guide display, but there is a distance from the room to the bath and dinner venue. Our rooms were on the 5th floor of the building with the front desk. Once you get off the elevator to the floor where the front desk is, you need to move the floor and move it by the elevator of the next building. If you are inconvenient in your foot and waist, I think it would be better to choose a room in the building with a bath and dinner venue in advance. The breakfast venue is in front of the front desk. It is a Viking form. (2) The foot wipe mat in the bath was painful The entrance to the bath has a green foot wipe mat. It was a hard lawn material, so it was painful in barefoot. The dryer, cotton swab, tissues were properly equipped with the washbasin. The bath was open-air bath and sauna. The sauna is hot enough to burn the butt if you don't put a mat. Overall, it was a very satisfying hotel. Especially dinner is a good impression. The rooms were also cleaned properly and there was a feeling of cleanliness. The toilet is also with a washlet. It is one of the hotels that I want to repeat.

We stayed for 2 nights at Hotel Iyaonsen, and were impressed by the level of service, the food offerings, the condition of the room and especially the Onsen (natural hot springs) quality down in the valley (more on that in a moment.) We were already expecting it to be remotely situated with incredible valley/mountain views, and on that (and all other) fronts, our hopes and expectations were more than met. As other reviewers have already noted, the drive to Hotel Iyaonsen - while not exactly a harrowing experience - is one that requires alertness... the road is barely wide enough for one vehicle, and if you spot a car approaching from the opposite direction, one of the drivers will have to back up to an area where there's sufficient width in the road for both cars to slide past one another. It's also very twisty - so much so, that it's really not practical to be barreling down the mountain pass in any case. Thankfully, there are mirrors placed at the corners of each sharp turn so that drivers are able to see oncoming traffic ahead of time. In my mind, this added to the charm of being somewhere so remote, even if it's a bit of a hassle to get there. We stayed in a room called ”Tamayura” (Room #505, to be exact), which is the top room at the property. It's a corner room located on the top floor, and has an open-air outdoor Onsen bath to boot. Measuring 47m², it pales in comparison to highest category rooms at other ryokans we've stayed at, but the layout made it feel more spacious than its measurements would suggest. Tamayura had a living room, a smaller area where you can enjoy the Valley view, and a separate sleeping area.... none of them were segregated by walls, which added to the airy feel but might bother some guests accustomed to having distinctly separate living/sleeping areas. While it's Japanese in design and decor, it was more modern than traditional. The room had an earthly tone and allowed an abundance of natural light to enter, making it seem fresh and new. The Onsen and shower were located on the deck, and exposed to the elements. Now, I am used to having an open-air Onsen bath (in fact, in most cases I prefer it), but also having to shower outside (before getting into the Onsen) could be painful if it was in the dead of winter. The other drawback has to do with the in-room Onsen itself - it's not of the free-flowing variety; you have to fill it up from scratch each time you bathe. While it probably takes no more than 20 minutes for the bath to fill up, you might spend a bit more time regulating the temperature (by turning either the cold or hot water tap) until it's just right for you. Thankfully, this is made up by the awesome Onsen down in the valley. There is a cable car that shuttles (paying) guests to and from the bottom of the Valley, where there are separate men/women communal Onsen baths. There are also baths that you can rent privately (at extra cost.) All of them were amazing - the hot springs were soft, supple, slippery

Stopped here prior to touring the Iya Valley. It's in close proximity to transit. Awesome time here at this older, traditional Ryokan. From the bath, to the amazing food, and the owner is the sweetest woman you'll meet. I would definitely go here again if in the area . You will feel taken care of

Providing convenient access to Iya and Oboke areas as well as 4 Shikoku prefectures on account of its location right off from Awaikeda JR station, this hotel is complete with Wi-Fi and best suited for travel and business.

The room was large and well appointed. You sleep on futons on the floor. There is also a bath and a toilet, which is unusual for onsen. There is an internal onsen bath on the 3rd floor but what makes this place unusual is that there is an outdoor bath up the hill where you take a mini funicular to reach the location. We had a Kaiseke dinner in the hotel where they feature local ingredients like tofu, potato and fish. To be honest, some of the dishes are an acquired taste but they were exquisitely presented and dinner staff were good. The wagyu beef was especially tasty. Staff are friendly and most can converse in English, which is a plus. The young female owner also has a good voice and sang a lovely song during dinner. The organized a short 20 minute tour after dinner to the vine bridge nearby though it was too dark to see much and the bridge was closed. But it was interesting riding the old school bus. Wifi is unfortunately weak and the Ipad was not able to log in at all. Wifi did not work for my Iphone in the dining room and only worked in the lobby and the bedroom. There is a souvenir store in the lobby area where you can buy local produce like snacks, apparel and ice cream.

A small and ingenious accommodation business travel, the service staff is very kind, breakfast is agreed in advance, one person, and hot food is provided according to the time, the equipment in the room seems to be fully updated and spacious, excellent value for money.
