Watakano Island Hotels

"This was a very nice ryokan, with polite and courteous staff. The location was very good, only a 10-minute walk from the train station, and one of the main Shinto shrines (Geku Jingo) in the area. The place was very quite and peaceful, and decorated with beautiful Japanese prints and fresh flowers. Our reservation came with a multi-course traditional dinner (kaiseki) and Japanese-style breakfast. The food was very good and fresh, and the portions were generous. We also greatly enjoyed our...

"The accommodation was great for a family of four. Quiet location. Good local food options and a temple next door. Reasonable distance to sites. Check in is via tablet. The person on site was not approachable."

"Wonderful experience! Friendly and helpful staff, clean and large room (Annex Grande), good restaurant, relaxing onsen, beautiful lobby lounge with delicious amenities, self-laundry available, luggage storage available, easy parking. You have to walk out onto the street and re-enter the premises (adjacent bldg) to access the restaurant and onsen if you reserve a room on the Annex Grande side of the hotel. Besides that minor detail, it was a great stay and would reserve again! "

"Excellent service, generous amenities. They couldn’t handle our request for vegetarian food at first, but finally got it right on day 3 - hooray!"

"Quick and easy by the station. Nice drink bar and lounge. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Staff was very accommodating. "

"Very unique sleeping experience "

"Great location, clean, and looks like it was designed by Studio Ghibli. Thanks for a lovely stay!"

"Old and tired room. Nice view but wouldn’t stay there again."

"Lovely hotel with friendly staff. The onsens are an additional nice touch. The downside is how far it is from the downtown area, but the shuttle makes that a non issue, also the bus drops you off right at the door. A convenience store nearby is also good if you need late night food."

"The apartment was wonderful, though the bunk bed we stayed in was comfortable but creaky. Keep in mind if you stay in that room you must go outside to take a shower in another building. Communication was great and check in and check out very smooth and simple. Very clean and close to bus stops. I would recommend this place if you're looking to stay near Ise Shrine~"

"Walkable to use shrine and meals were all wonderful!"
