Onyado Shikishima-kan

Konpira Onsen, Kotohira

The ryokan is located in a geothermal area, with a number of hot springs nearby for guests to relax in.

Kitahamaebisu Shrine is 41 km from the ryokan, while Takamatsu Heike Monogatari Historical Museum is 42 km from the property. The nearest airport is Takamatsu Airport, 27 km from Onyado Shikishima-kan. Everything. Check-in was smooth, rooms were decently big enough with cute chairs in the room. Each room even has a filter coffee brewing kit with hand grinders and beans!! First time I've ever seen this. They have communal baths, but also 4 private baths. There is no reservation required and you simply go in when it's empty. Each of the 4 has different decor/themes so I highly recommend checking them all out. They also have various coloured yukata for both men and women to pick! No more boring blue yukatas. It's absolutely fantastic. Meals were a major highlight of the stay. Each little dish was so prefectly cooked with great balance of flavours. The waitress attending to us was also super friendly. In my two weeks in Japan, this is definitely top 3 in all the meals I had. I'm definitely coming back to stay. I recommend 2 night stay at least to fully enjoy the facilities. Or at least a full 2 days 1 night.

瀧乃元 近藤家(Kondoke-Inn)

Toon

Situated in Toon, 11 km from Cools Mall and 12 km from To-on Park, 瀧乃元 近藤家(Kondoke-Inn) features spacious air-conditioned accommodation with a terrace and free WiFi. Set 16 km from Fuji GRAND SHIGENOBU Shopping Centre, the property offers a garden and free private parking. Joruri-ji Temple is 22 km from the ryokan and Kaiganzan Iwaya-ji Temple is 37 km away. We absolutely loved this place. The host and staff are so friendly and made us feel very welcome. The house itself is lovely, an old renovated farm house, with plenty of space and a stunning view of the surrounding mountains. There is a small independent cafe attached which is not to be missed - amazing coffee and, again, the owner is just lovely. I would recommend traveling by car but the roads are easy to navigate, there is good parking and so much to do in the area (from hiking to canyoning and kayaking; and larger cities such as Matsuyama, and slightly further, Kochi, are not too far away - we even went into town by car one evening for the famous Dogo Onsen). All in all, not to be missed!
