Hotels near Art Road Museum, Okayama City

Both the location and the room size of the hotel are good. Staff were accommodating and efficient. My friend enjoyed the onsen and we had a good stay in the hotel.

The staff I came came across were all very polite and had welcoming smiles, no matter at the reception desk or the restaurant on 20/F. I enjoyed my stay here, but it felt comparable to the 3 star hotels, just slightly better especially thanks to the fabulous breakfast and location of breakfast…If hotels have half stars, i would think it’s’more of a 3.5 star hotel instead of a 4. I have a few suggestions which the hotel can look into to improve in the future. 3 Things to improve on: 1) I picked this hotel because I read other reviews saying the hotel is connected to a bridge from the Okayama station. This is true but unfortunately there were no signs in the station to guide travellers unlike another hotel like Granvia. Google suggested that I look for the west exit which I did, but I ended up being at the ground level hence had to bring big suitcase all the stairs…then I spotted the bridge and ANA crowne plaza from the street 2) cleanliness can be improved. There’s a UCC drip coffee machine in the room. I don’t drink coffee, and the box for the drip coffee selection was refilled. However I spotted a used capsule on the floor near the wall. The bin was not blocking the view, so the cleaners could’ve easily spotted the rubbish if they had been a little more careful and looked under the table when they have to clear out the rubbish bin anyway. 3) I sent a message to the hotel via TRIP.com. The message wasn’t replied promptly, as in within a few hours. Ultimately it didn’t matter anymore, I arrived at the hotel before somebody managed to reply me. Maybe it’s the system that’s problematic which may have caused a lag? Or staff only look at mails/messages when not too busy at the front desk?

I stayed in a non-smoking single room. The room was clean and perfect. The front desk staff were also polite and left a good impression. The elevator was also close by. It's a little far from the station. It's not too far to walk, but because it was hot and I had luggage, I took the bus from in front of the station. It's just a short walk from the bus stop. The bus arrives quickly. It's right next to the Sanyo Shimbun building, so it's easy to find, and it's just one corner from the main road, so you don't have to worry about traffic noise. I think the location is good.

The place is an old but well maintained house, the staff is really nice and friendly. This hostel is located in a good centric area, you can rent a bike with them and go to the Okayama Castle and garden, is very convenient.

We needed parking for this road trip, and although the hotel had some, spaces were limited and on a first-come, first-served basis. Luckily, the hotel staff provided very detailed parking information for the surrounding area, which was a huge help! (A staff member with a leg injury explained it to us very carefully.) They also have a promotion every day from 6 PM to 8 PM where you can enjoy a soft drink (they also have alcohol), so don't miss it!

The hotel is minutes away from Okayama Station. As it is close to the rail tracks, you will be able to hear the sound of moving trains, though it didn’t disturb me much. Near the hotel is Hattori Bagel, which I will highly recommend. The breakfast provided was so-so and you might want to consider the bagels instead.

The hotel located perfectly. Not so far from the Okayama Station. And there are a lot of restaurants and shops near by. You also can reach Okayama castle by walk (about 20-25 minutes) The room is very clean. The bed are great. We rested really well after long walks. There is only one flaw: it's impossible to open the window. But it's not a big deal. The reception staff are also perfect. Although they may not know English well, they're still absolutely ready to help with any question, including sending the baggage to our next hotel. The breakfast was also good. We'd definitely stay here one more time.

It's very close to the station, Aeon Mall, Don Quijote, and supermarkets. It's an unmanaged hotel, but if you check in online in advance, you only need to scan a QR code at the hotel, which is very convenient. The kitchen in the room is fully equipped; I cooked many meals of instant noodles in the room (and even added a lot of ingredients I bought at the supermarket 😎). Highly recommended!!!

The location is nice. Although, I got a smaller room than I saw in the pictures, I couldn’t stand up straight because the roof was so low. Also, there was a short went to another room and I had to craft a curtain because the light from the other room shined straight on my face and you can’t sleep the other way around because there’s not enough room. Furthermore, even though I left my keys for the cleaners, they just left the clean towels and sheets outside my room and told me to do it and the key was left in my door. But the showers and toilets was nice and you have privacy which is nice.
