edit x seven SETOUCHI SHODOSHIMA ★★★★★

"The room design was excellent, and the balcony offered a superb sea view. However, considering the hotel's price, positioning, and facilities, the room service was extremely poor. Firstly, the room wasn't cleaned daily; they only provided new towels and collected the trash, and the room wasn't cleaned until the fourth night. Aside from the fact that the hotel is positioned as a high-priced scenic hotel but doesn't provide comprehensive services, what dissatisfied us most was that the hotel didn't proactively replenish consumables such as tissues, toilet paper, or coffee. The so-called "new towels" were simply a garbage bag placed on the floor as a base, with the towels on top; you'd see the new towels on the floor as soon as you opened the door. Seriously, even chain APA hotels at least put towels in large plastic bags and hang them on the door; this hotel's practice was truly appalling. Even more shockingly, the housekeeping staff only collected the trash but didn't collect the old towels! We were three people staying for three nights, and after the second night, we had so many towels that we didn't have room for them… We tried leaving the old towels near the door to see if the housekeeping staff would collect them. It turned out that the old towels would only be collected if left near the door. Secondly, while I appreciate the hotel providing cooking utensils for guests, the room's trash can was pitifully small. I suggest providing an extra kitchen trash can for guests. Overall, the room views are superb, but the service is disappointing. The room rate only includes the view and facilities, not the service, so the value for money is mediocre (I booked at the opening price; at the current full price, I wouldn't come back because there's practically no service). This hotel is good for taking photos, so one night is enough; staying several nights will only make you more and more disappointed."

Seatiger Island Inn Shodoshima ★★

"The geographical location is relatively remote and far from the city, but if you enter and exit Futian Port, it is very close! The morning staff provided excellent service. The accommodation comes with a simple breakfast. You can go to the supermarket to buy your favorite side dishes to eat with it. We stayed on the second floor. The room was spacious and comfortable. It was a sea view room where you could see the open sea as soon as you stepped out. The only inconvenience was that the shower room was far from the room on the second floor. You had to walk through the grass. It was recommended to take a shower before the sun went down. However, the accommodation also came with tickets for nearby hot springs, so you could go and take a bath."

Shodoshima Mitonosato ★★★

"I discovered a hidden gem of a ryokan (traditional Japanese inn) on the Santo Peninsula of Shodoshima Island. It's a renovated old Japanese house with decades of history, and the service was amazing. Booking a room even included a private car and driver available on demand. Breakfast and dinner were included—a truly sumptuous feast of local cuisine and homemade sake. The food was incredibly refined, but the portions were enormous; the two of us were so full we could barely walk. We also had a private open-air hot spring bath. The house is structured like a traditional Japanese courtyard house, with a small Japanese garden in the center, separated from the rooms by glass, keeping out mosquitoes. My girlfriend had a migraine, and we forgot our medication. They immediately came to apply cold compresses, took care of her, and even brought her painkillers—they were a lifesaver! [frowning face] The Kamiura Beach is right outside the door. It's a Japanese ryokan that's practically flawless. If you're visiting Shodoshima, I highly recommend it! [applause]"

Otomari Chuzaemon Yoshino ★★★

"Friends travel by car, the hotel has emailed a few days in the morning, the check-in information, there is a clear road map, and there are discounted meals, there will be re-check-in."

Villa Chillon ★★★★

"Cooking for myself was fun, and the environment was just as I had imagined it would be when I looked at the introduction website beforehand, so it was great. I would have liked to stay a few nights and relax, fishing on the nearby beach. The only thing that was a bit off was that the bath didn't have a reheating function. Other than that, the room and toilet were very clean, so it was a very pleasant stay!"

Shodoshima Olive Youth Hostel ★★★

"My eight siblings and I stayed here, and it was better than a regular hotel. The service was also excellent, and we were very grateful for the minibus that took us to and from town instead of a taxi."

Aqua Hotel Shodoshima Resort ★★★★

"Although far from the pier, the view and the room are good It's a good hotel on the island,"

SUNSET SHODOSHIMA –CONTAINER HOTEL–

"The container hotel's interior was stylish and lovely 😊 The adjacent restaurant, Tiida, was also fantastic, both inside and on the terrace. The food was delicious (especially the pizza), and we had a wonderful time. The sunset from the terrace was incredibly beautiful. It's a place I definitely want to visit again."
