Hotels near Mannou Park, Kotohira

Great location with lawson and super market next door. The bath was great and the staff super helpful!

We booked the room that had the private bathroom and it was a huge and fabulous room. Very traditional. The staff were super helpful: they helped us organize one of our activity that required a taxi, ropeway, etc… We highly recommend this hotel.

This property is truly a gem. While I can comment only on the room we stayed in, room 503 which was a Japanese style room, I would rate it as a 10/10. The staff are all lovely. Every single staff member that crossed our path was very helpful, polite and friendly. Our room had a gorgeous 180 degree view over Kotohira. The sound of the river below was so nice. If I was to stay again, I would stay in a western style room simply because I found it difficult to get off the floor. I peeked in room 302 on my way out and think any western room on that side of that building with that view, could not be beat. We did not have our dinners at the hotel but did have breakfast every day for the four days we were there. The amount of food is enough to set you for the entire day. I enjoyed a vegetarian western breakfast while my husband enjoyed the Japanese breakfast. The food is delicious, the presentation is beautifully done and the service is exceptional. Such a hard working team. The staff were happy to take us to the train station whoever we wanted to go on a day trip. A day trip to the Iya valley and one to the Ritsurin gardens should not be missed.

The staff was very helpful and nice. We had a good time. The room are basic but you have all you need. The plywood style is very trendy. The hostel have everything you need downstairs and it’s very clean.
