Hotels With breakfast in Ehime Prefecture, Japan

Location is great! Less than 5 minutes walk to Matsuyama JR station. There was no staff at the counter in the morning. Although you can contact them with phone call, it's inconvenience for foreigners. I arrived in the morning and needed luggage check-in. Ended up leaving my luggage by myself in the corner of the lobby where several other luggages were left. Good thing there is 24hr video surveillance pointing at the luggage area and one can chain-lock the luggage to the rail shelf. Suggest to bring a chain-lock if you need to leave luggage there. Check-in was easy and staff was friendly. Room is accessed via physical key, not RFID card like commonly seen today in hotels. I booked single room. There is no tea kettle, tea bags, coffee, or drinking water inside the room. All those ammenities are at the lobby. Hot/cold water is only available from a portable water dispenser. I was really surprised that it is not allowed to refill the water with your own bottle (or any resuable bottle). The staff told me it is for hygenie concerns. One can only use the provided tiny paper cup (50~70ml in volume) to get water or make coffee/tea. And it is not allowed to eat/drink in the lobby area. So you have to hold the tiny cup and go back to your room to consume it. Very inconvenient to me. They offer 2 kinds of set menu for breakfast: chicken congee and sea bream rice soup (Tai-chazuke). I had the later and it was delicious. Overall, the stay met my expectations with price I paid except for the inconvenience in getting hot water for making tea or coffee myself. If I ever travel to Matsuyama bymyself again, I'll definitely consider staying in this place again. But I won't recommend it for couple or family stay though.

This hotel is right next to the coffee shop on the left side when you exit Matsuyama-shi Station tram stop. If you're coming from Matsuyama Port, you can take the tram from Takahama Station directly to the hotel. The facilities are quite new as it just recently opened. Every afternoon, guests can enjoy complimentary welcome drinks, and there's free ice cream in the evenings, which is a great draw. The hotel's location is excellent for getting around; Matsuyama-shi Station, which has many buses to Shikoku, Tokyo, Osaka, and Okayama, is right downstairs.

I booked a two-bed room, which was quite spacious, but it didn't include breakfast and still cost 1418 RMB, even on a weekday. I really felt it was too expensive. Similar rooms at the Crowne Plaza and Daiwa Roynet Hotel nearby were only around 800 RMB and 600 RMB, respectively, for the same day. Aside from the high price, the hotel's hot spring and complimentary udon noodles were indeed excellent. During the hot spring's operating hours, there were free ice cream and Yakult available for self-service. This hotel is located on Ookaido street, a 10-minute walk from Matsuyama Castle, 2 minutes from Mitsukoshi department store, and 3 minutes from the tram station to Matsuyama JR Station. Once you get your bearings, it feels very convenient. I just wish the price wasn't so high; I think maybe I overpaid this time!

The location is excellent—there is a 7-Eleven right next to the hotel, and plenty of dining options within walking distance. One important tip for drivers: the hotel offers parking for ¥1,100 per night, but the parking lot address is separate because the entrance is at the back. We had to drive in a big circle when we first arrived, so make sure to check the exact parking address beforehand.We booked a ”Relaxed Double Room,” which was listed as 23 sqm, but it felt much smaller. There was absolutely no space to open our large suitcases anywhere in the room. The room itself felt old and the carpet seemed a bit gross. On the bright side, the in-room massage chair was fantastic!The hotel is very generous with free amenities. In the lobby, they lay out coffee bags, tea bags, and various toiletries that guests can take freely. Our booking included breakfast, but the food was completely identical for all four mornings without any rotation. The quality was quite mediocre, so we didn't really want to eat there after the first day.

A nice hotel with full hotel services minus Onsen. It is a little dated but services and staffs are great. There are four restaurants and Akiyoshi is the reputable one offering sea bream to be eaten in four ways. The hotel is next to Mitsukoshi and Okaido. The walking street is also linked to Takashimaya.

The hotel is not close to Dogo Onsen street and you will need to drive or get a taxi if you want to go there. There are no restaurants or shops nearby the hotel. There is a walk nearby the hotel you can take which offers nice scenery in the woods. The hotel looks a bit dated particularly the bedrooms and the corridors. I asked for a quiet room facing the mountain instead of one facing a busy road and had to pay an additional 2200 yen. The hotel has a number of onsens and I like the outdoor ones best. The buffet dinner and breakfast offer good selection and I particularly like the dinner which offered nice teppanyaki beef and sushi. The hotel reception staff spoke very little English and the hotel did not reply to an email I sent them asking for transportation information to get to the hotel. There are buses near the hotel which go to Matsuyama and Imabari but they run infrequently.

The JR Clement Inn is next door to the train station which is very nice if you're in town due to the Shimanami Kaido trail. Given the price point of the hotel, it delivers. They offered free drinks in the evening, including sake, and while we did not have their breakfast buffet, it appeared to be very good. Rooms were clean and spacious and location is very tough to beat.

I had booked this hotel last-minute after completing the Shimanami-Kaido and I couldn't have been happier! It simply is the tallest building in the WHOLE IMABARI! The view from my room facing the town and the mighty Kurushima Kaikyo Bridge was incredible, I could nllt stop staring! There is a drugstore and a Lawson a 2min walk from the hotel as well as a Uniqlo and plenty of restaurants. The breakfast cost 2500yen so it's expensive but IMO worth it. The hotel has several businesses in it as it's a massive building including a branch of Imabari towels and I'm glad I was able to purchase some. The hotel has its own onsen but it's not free. However, it's only for paying guests so it is never too busy. There is a sauna, ice-cold pool, an outdoor stone bath and a huge indoor one. My room was big with plenty of sunlight. Overall, my stay here was amazing.

Room The room was spacious and clean. The furniture was stylish and made me feel relaxed. The presence of a sauna was a big plus. Having the toilet separate from the bathroom was also nice. Location I think it's in a good location for sightseeing in the city. Also, since the hotel is on the 8th floor of a department store, it was convenient for eating and buying souvenirs. Parking I parked in the adjacent multi-story parking garage. There was a connecting walkway, so getting around was convenient.

Pros: Breakfast was great and getting it included was not too expensive. Location is pretty good, just 4 min was from nearest tram station and walkable to many restaurants and Matsuyama Castle. Cons: room was a bit dusty and the bathroom had a bad smell.
