Amazing view and food! We enjoyed Japanese Kaiseki dinner and breakfast. They use local seasonal ingredients and we enjoyed every single dish. This is our second visit and we look forward to staying again soon.

The property is located in a lovely spot on Miyajima Island. Walkable to the busy waterfront area. It’s definitely old school but the room was clean. We stayed at Hotel Makoto for the ryokan experience. We were really excited when we returned after an evening out to find our beds prepared for us. I have to say, sleeping on the floor was uncomfortable but I was expecting that. There were more pads in the closet. The staff provided maps and info about the island. Very friendly and helpful.

I felt right at home, like part of the family. The babies are well behaved and delightful. My room was quiet and comfortable. Ellen picked me up at the train station—this was far above what I expected. Ellen also gave me an itinerary for my day on Miyajima island, full of insider tips—I didn’t know there’s so much more to Miyajima than just seeing the shrine, and thanks to Ellen’s guidance I had an amazing visit. I highly recommend Full House Miyajima if you are someone who wants a warm welcome, if you enjoy connecting with others, and if you want a home stay in Japan with a lovely family!

Host was absolutely amazing. So helpful. She really went above and beyond.
We only stayed one night, but I wish we stayed 2-3.
We only stayed one night, but I wish we stayed 2-3. I left feeling like I only scratched the surface. Beautiful and peaceful place to unwind, especially after visiting the Peace Park Museum in Hiroshima.

It is a magic island where I would spend at least a couple of full days by sleeping in an authentic hotel with futon beds. If you can, i recommend to do the hiking of the main mountain (not difficult at all)

If you are an elderly Japanese teetotaller who likes simple food, an onsen and beautiful views this is the place for you!
If however, you also like your hotel to be multi generational, with a nice bar, good food and a welcoming atmosphere, this is definitely not the hotel for you.

We stayed 2 nights but wish we could have stayed longer.
We stayed 2 nights but wish we could have stayed longer. We took one whole day climbing the mountain, which was great but time consuming, so we ended up not seeing everything on our list. Keep in mind that the restaurants and bars close by 7 or 8 pm because all of the tourists leave the island around 5:30 pm. You really get to enjoy the beautiful island in peace and quiet in the morning and evening before the boats of tourists arrive. It was our favorite place we visited in Japan!

Miyajima Villa was the perfect escape!
Miyajima Villa was the perfect escape! Friendly, professional staff assisted us to get settled, offering umbrellas for the rain, assistance on getting around the Island, etc. The hotel even offers Onsen clothing and many other amenities for their guests! The hotel is conveniently located just steps from the ferry dock and the main streets to see the Tori Gate or the Itsukushima Shrine, the aquarium, to get to the Ropeway, trinket stores, ice cream stations, and so on. Our ocean room view had 2 oversized very comfy twin beds, a small couch, & desk. Loved the Toto Washlet in the toilet room! The bathtub while small was perfect for soaking after 5 hours of hiking. Lots of soft water and water pressure. The onsen (public bath) was just pure Heaven! :-) Sitting in the enclosed area in back of the hotel is just more of the escape and so worthwhile! :-)
Thankfully there was food available in the hotel (bakery, dinner, breakfast) because ALL food service in town STOPS AT 4:30pm! At least, it did while we were there. Our breakfast with Miyajima Villa was wonderful and very filling whether Japanese or American food.
High caution is advised if you plan to hike from the Ropeway, as we did. Trails are not well marked on all trails. However, the trail to the top of Mt Misen is well worthwhile! Hopefully, you are as fortunate as we were to see the Tori Gate at high & low tides as well as catching it at sunset, which brought out MANY PEOPLE. :-) :-) What a perfectly lovely island to spend some adventure time!

Beautiful island.
Beautiful island. Go early in the morning especialy if you want to climb the mountain. It's a pretty hard track, bu it's beautiful.
In the afthernoon it's to hot.
Lot of tourist in the afternoon and it's hard to have some dinner.
Stay there during the sunset: the shrine is beautiful!
The hotel was expensive but offers a great experiment and the luxury to enjoy Miyajima on the evening, without the crow and enjoy the sunset and sunrise on the island. To room was huge and very clean, the bed very confortable.
The hotel have a whole floor dedicated to well-being, with a salon, onsen, exterior pool, rock bath, karaoke room... That you can access anytime on the opening hour. They have also kimono at disposition at the entry, a little shop on the 1st floor.
The hotel is old style but charming. The views from the water side rooms are spectacular so I highly recommend booking an ocean view room. In fact you can see the famous floating torii from the room but also from the fabulous outdoor deck. The sunrise was gorgeous. I appreciated the minibus that takes you directly to the station (and ferry to Miyajima island). I also recommend the excellent evening boat cruise to see the Torii at night. A truly magnificent sight.
The property is right in between the ferry port and the town / O’Torii. The staff was super friendly, the rooms spacious and fully equipped, they even had kimonos for us! On top of everything, the hotel has it’s own private onsen!!! We relaxed after a day of walking around and the next day, upon leaving, the staff gifted us a couple of umbrellas for it was pouring and we didn’t have any. Our mystical stay at Miyajima couldn’t have been such without Sakuraya :)
Wonderful Ryokan hotel experience
Friendly helpful staff
Excellent location, immaculately clean and tidy hotel
Complimentary courtesy bus from Myajima ferry to the hotel
Super room, comfortable ryokan beds with a view of the pagoda and mountains
Easy accessibility to the ropeway and Tori gate
Wonderful experience of exploring Myajima in the evening and the illuminated Tori Gate
Lovely local evening meal in Myajima that served fantastic local food
Located in serene and quiet location on Miyajima! surrounded by lush forest. Rooms felt like traditional Japanese ryokan. Was clean and staff were friendly. There is shuttle bus that can pick you up from the Miyajima station (had to use the pay phone to contact them which was easy). Onsen is public but was not crowded. Close walk to Itsukushima shrine as well as cable car up to top of mountain.
This is a first rate ryokan located in the heart of Miyajima. They definitely know how to take care of their guests. We stayed in a western styled room with its own Japanese ofuro (bath) that had a wonderful view. They also have a restaurant the serves outstanding fried oysters and other Japanese cuisine.
The owner is very nice. He gave tips about the island & places to eat, and was always helpful.
The room was Japanese style looking out over the small village, shrines and ocean.
The location of the guesthouse is in a quiet area away from the main tourist zone, but still very easy to reach.
A good Japanese style hotel, what made it special was the personnel, specially miss Satoko, she was very very nice, she’s really polite and speaks English really well, she even helped us with a little accident we had.
The view from the room was amazing, that made us enjoy our stay much more.
Host met us at the door was kind and very helpful with information about the island and getting around Miyajima. Home is a beautiful Japanese home and located perfectly away from the hustle in town but, close enough to be convienent. Host provides hot water, tea and coffee, bottled water.
The hotel is very well located to have a relaxed stay in Miyajima. The room was comfortable and very clean. The staff was very helpful and attentive. I did not have any meal there so I have no opinion about their food options. The free shuttle bus to the ferry is very convenient.
The ryokan is nicely maintained and the hosts were wonderful. The bath was a great and unique experience, while the breakfast was deliciously prepared. It is in a great, central location, not far from the ferry and still close to the major attractions.
I loved the complimentary shuttle to and from the ferry port, however, the ryokan is a walkable distance and would recommend walking at least once (if able) to see the town. Every meal served was beyond delicious and staff was so friendly and helpful.
The hotel is very much near to the ferry terminal and also it is walking distance to the station. There are restaurants around the hotel. You can see the night view of Miyajima and come to the hotel. Also the luggage drop off is available.
Amazing hosts beautiful home and family the room I stayed in was very traditional and so lovely. They even dropped me off and picked me up as well as giving me lots of information about what to do on Miyajima Island and times 😊
