Find Hotels in Saijo, Japan

Firstly, this hotel is very clean. The room was well presented and by Japanese standards a little bigger than usual. We wanted to drop our luggage off in the early morning so we could get an early start on Mount Ishizuchi - no problems. Reception staff were very straighforward with our limited Japanese and their limited English. Mime and laughter always bridges the gap. Breakfast was an additional cost for us but reasonable at 540JPY per person. It was a well presented buffet and there is no criticism of it at all. Location is magnificent. Directly opposite the JR Saijo Station. Perfect for the Asahi brewery free shuttle, buses to Mt. Ishizuchi and Yokomineji (Temple 60) on the Shikoku pilgrim trail. The Tourist Information Centre, a small block away from the Station (turn right) is helpful for all planning. At the end of two days of hard walks, the Sento/Onsen on the 9th Floor was so welcome. WIFI is excellent.

We would have loved to stay a few more nights at this hotel and this pretty little town. Room is spacious, good view of mountains, clean and WIFI strength is good. Staff were all really friendly and helpful and breakfast has wide selection of Japanese food and bread rolls. Train station is just 250m walk. Free bicycles are of good condition. Public bath is clean and really relaxing after a day of cycling around. Free Coffee and tea are available at lobby.

Very clean, with nice sized rooms for a Japanese business hotel. Very quiet, and not even a hint of smoke in the non-smoking rooms. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and they even have a shuttle to take you back to the station when you leave. Delicious, breakfast buffet with a lot of variety for both Western and Japanese options. The hotel is about a 15 minute walk (or a 900 yen taxi ride) from Iyo-Saijo station. Definitely walkable if you like to walk and don't have heavy baggage. I didn't interact with the staff in English (I spoke Japanese) so I don't know whether or not they can help English-speaking travelers easily.

Excellent business hotel. Lots of parking. About 10 mins walk from Nyuugawa Station. Tons of restaurants within a 2-5min walk plus a convenience store. Super friendly staff and good sized, clean rooms. Really good hairdryer, laundry on 5th floor, microwaves, hot drink machine in lobby, lots of extra touches. Bring earplugs if you’re a light sleeper. Definitely recommend and would stay again! Note: Wifi password is in the hidden drawer in the built in desk - took me ages to find it :)
