This hotel is located on the top of a mountain and was designed by Tadao Ando. There are seven rooms in total, one per floor, including the new building and the main building. Because we arrived late today, the hotel left four staff members to serve us. They had been emailing us to inquire about the arrival time and whether we had food allergies. They were very caring and meticulous. We booked a semi-open-air hot spring forest room. The room is large, but the decoration style is very Andou style. The room has a private bath but it is not open-air, two bathrooms, and a mini bar with various drinks. The Ehime orange juice is very delicious. The whole hotel is Andou Tadao's gallery. The main features are spaciousness, natural light, concrete, and basement. It is a mini version of Chichu Gallery in Naoshima.

Staying in the hotel is like staying in an art museum. I really like the sunny restaurant. The breakfast and dinner are very exquisite and delicious. The cafe has many Tadao Ando books to read. I highly recommend the sea view room, which directly overlooks the Seto Inland Sea. You can enjoy it early in the morning. Watching the sea slowly grinding beans to make hand-brewed coffee, I really like the coffee beans in the room! ! When I left, I wanted to buy a pack to take away. The service is also great! It’s a perfect travel experience! ♥️

Fantastic experience in one and only architecture masterpiece attached with local delicacies. Aonagi resort is the hidden jewel in Setouchi area, a must go when you visit around Shikoku, or even if you’re considering visiting west Japan broadly. Tadao Ando, a global maestro who has won the Pritzker architecture award has built this unique 7 rooms all suite hotel. Every details has magnificent eye from the architect, and intellectual journey to seek that is already an adventure. The services are that of 5 star hotel in any large city, and the food is just one and only. The sashimi provided to us was very original yet traditional, and the thickness of its cut and focus on details has opened the door for the definition of yellowtail for us. Also very impressed by the passions to detail of the sommelier Imazu. His combination with bottled sparkling tea and Georgian ancient wine paired with traditional Japanese was just a series of wonderful surprises. Definitely a recommend looking forward going again.

If you are looking for a special experience in Japan then book a stay at this wonderful and unique hotels. The building is a stunning architectural mix with the surrounding countryside. The suite we stayed in had two rooms and was a brilliant experience for my family. The staff are very friendly once you can get past their formality :). They are very expert at making you feel like a welcome guest. The Chef is outstanding and without a doubt the best selection Kaiseki menus over the 4 nights we stayed. Every night was a different menu and delicious. Brett was our excellent host bridging the gap with our limited Japanese with perfect English. We loved it and will be back for sure

This was my second time staying here. I like Ando's architecture and have been to many places such as Naoshima, but here, all the rooms are suites, so it feels like "living in Ando's architecture," and you can spend a very rich time. The sofas, lamps, furniture, slippers, bedding, amenities, etc. in the rooms are carefully selected down to the smallest detail, creating a sophisticated space. And above all, the food is delicious! The service is excellent. Even for those of us who can't drink alcohol (weak), a sommelier is there to help us enjoy pairings. Then I had a spa treatment, and although I usually don't sleep much during treatment, I fell asleep within 5 minutes of the treatment and dozed off throughout the 75-minute treatment, which was the most comfortable time. There was a private pool and swimsuits available for rental, and the service was attentive to even the smallest details, so I was able to fully enjoy small luxury. I definitely recommend this place for trips to the Shikoku region!

The location, the interior of the room, the atmosphere of the hotel, the service of the hotel staff, etc. were all very good. The food was a kaiseki with a delicious broth and a gentle taste. I asked for the ultimate pairing. It was my first time having a sommelier choose my alcohol, so it was a good experience. All the alcohol went well with the food and was delicious. What's disappointing: 1. There is no large public bath. There are rooms with open-air baths, and Dogo Onsen is nearby, so it might be good to take a day trip to the baths. 2. Breakfast is only Japanese food. Since it is kaiseki at night, if you stay for several nights, you may want to eat a little bread. The Japanese breakfast is also quite delicious, but...^^; 3. Paid sauna at the pool The sauna is very good. There is no cold bath, but this can be substituted by the shower next to it. However, there is no place to rest. It would be nice if there were a long chair or sunbed nearby. If I'm being greedy, there were a few things I was dissatisfied with, but overall it was very good. I would like to use it again when I come to Ehime (^^)

I stayed at the Aonagi Suite in November. The ceilings are high and it feels very open! I played my favorite music at full volume on Bluetooth and gazed upon the beautiful scenery as it changed, enjoying a luxurious moment of doing absolutely nothing. I also enjoyed the private pool, sauna and jacuzzi bath. The wonderful space was so comfortable that I upgraded my meals and had them served in my room, which was a great decision! The food was also very delicious, and I was constantly surprised and impressed. The serving staff had the perfect sense of distance and timing. I will definitely return at the same time!
