Hotels in Jinsekikogen

"What a dream location and hotel (I almost don't want to share this review because it will be impossible to get a room in the future!) Nestled in the midst of a park above the town, with unbeatable views and 5-star service, this renovated hotel feels like a hip retreat experience. Getting up the steep hill requires a taxi ride or a car, but once you are there you pretty much won't want to move. First, because you are within a park where you can walk to an observatory or an art museum. Then because both the cafe and rooftop bar offer incredible drinks/views, the restaurant serves the most authentic Japanese breakfast we had anywhere, and the loungewear and onsen just encourage relaxation. We felt like we were in a ryokan in a combo of Brooklyn,NY and the Berkshires, MA in the US! Because we were there peak cherry-blossom season the views were even more gorgeous- but this spot is divine and the spacious, luminous rooms allow you to really enjoy every little bit. Stay at least 2-3 nights so you can explore the area and town as well- and be sure to reserve for dinner or breakfast before you arrive- the chef needs advance notice to create their visually stunning, delicate menu items."

"Very accommodating staff. We were able to check out and store our luggage with front desk while we biked the Shimanami Trail. Excellent breakfast buffet - great way to start a day of biking."

"Lovely room with hugs window and sea views. Very central - three mins from the station and right next door to a super bike hire shop. "

"The hotel is undergoing renovations and this has upset the staff. The driers don't work well."

"Fukuyama city is a hidden jewel. Most of the bullet trains stop here and the access to major places, including Osaka, Kyoto, Nagoya, Yokohama, Tokyo, and Fukuoka is a direct line. If you want to visit Tomonoura where major movies scenes were taken, including Studio Ghibli and The Wolverine, I highly recommend Fukuyama."

"Room smelled of smoke. Forgot I had to request non-smoking room. Vintage place as in the rooms hadn’t ever been updated. Fine though"
