Find the Cheap Naoshima Hotels

The good: They are a new hotel so there are some glitches but it was such an amazing stay, all can be forgiven. The hotel is run by amazing people!!! Everyone speaks some English and are super friendly. The food is so amazing. Yum Yum!! The rooms are small, new but the beds are small and hard. There is just a small shower. Since we went to I LOVE YU anyways, we only showered quickly in the morning. The view is so incredible. The bad: Because the location is a bit far away, I definitely wanted to to book with dinner but Booking.com did not offer the 2 meal option like some other places on the island. However, their own website did so I booked through them. I wanted to change room options afterward and wrote to them but they did not respond. Nor was I able to navigate the site to cancel or change the reservation. They also offered a shuttle from the ferry terminal but it wasn't made that obvious so I never bothered calling for it. The walk is fine once you know where it is but we got a bit lost missing the road up the hill. This place will book up quickly so reserve ahead.

A 3-minute walk from Miyaura Port, it was a renovated private house in the Miyaura village and was used when I visited the 2022 Setouchi Triennale. There is nothing like the front desk and there are no staff. Use the reserved room, check out only by leaving the key in the room. There is no hassle. I used ”ROOM CHARLIE”. A rental room with a bedroom, living room and private bathroom. The kitchenette has a refrigerator, microwave and electric kettle, and you can cook a little. Clean, functional, easy to use and very good.

This little guesthouse is simple but so well priced and met all our needs - mostly its close proximity (15 minutes walk) to both Honnura port area and the start of the Benesse house art zone, the main locations for the absolutely amazing art installations on Naoshima. Room was well sized, clean, secure and warm. The host was very friendly - he even gave us a lift into the Benesse area to give us a great head start on our day, and securely stored our luggage for the day. I would definitely stay here again. For those coming to Naoshima I would recommend staying 2 nights so you are not rushing your time on this beautiful serene island and make sure you book various galleries well in advance, they sell out even in off season!!

October 2023, 1 night in Ocean View Twin Room (balcony) Good point Anyway, the view from the balcony in the room is great The design of the hotel interior exterior with the concept of the new warm old knowledge is original The restaurant called FORQ adjacent to the pass is delicious Only Tamano can watch the Keirin race from the balcony Good access to the island of art ”Naoshima” 【Note】 Dinner at the cherry blossom restaurant was common to the general guest, and the seat by the window was not able to sit as a reservation Watching from the balcony is strong in the sea breeze and cold at night There is a vending machine, but it is not sold, so it is better to bring it to the person who wants to drink It's a bit tough to walk to the nearest supermarket and convenience store It seems that the balcony cannot be watched only during the midnight Keirin Only shower can not be used during the Keirin 【Commentary】 A hotel that can be recommended besides bicycle lovers. Recommended as a place to stay for sightseeing to the art island ”Naoshima”.

My husband and I chose the Uno Hotel because we wanted easy access to the art islands in the Seto Inland Sea. Hotel is a 3 or 4 minute easy walk to Uno Port which is the gateway to those islands. And ferry ride only about 15 minutes one-way. We expected the art islands to be great but this is a new hotel so we took a chance. Wow, what a wonderful experience on every level; the room, hotel team, restaurant, and the food was exceptional. The Uno Hotel is also within a 1 minute walk to a building which houses Onsen (hot springs baths and spa) and a Japanese restaurant, which they also own. (We did not have time to explore those but heard great things.) I could rave about the restaurant in the hotel called “Bluno” for days….we enjoyed breakfasts and dinners there - each superb with great attention-to-detail. A special treat was meeting restaurant manager Mr. Aran Teruo Pascual. He was kind, professional and personally makes one want to return in addition to the food and contemporary bright setting. The front desk team is warm, welcoming and attentive. When making a reservation I noticed there are multiple hotels or inns that have the name “Uno” in it so my suggestion is that you note that it is the Uno Hotel. I recommend higher floor on the water side, the hotel is not on the water, but lovely view. We look forward to returning.

Good, very clean
