Best Takehara Hotels

Ok, this one is difficult to rate. The room comes with a magnificient view on the sea. That's what made me chose that place. But it is remote. So, if you have no car, except walking a good 2km from the train station along a road. There is nothing to eat there. It is a stop/sleep/leave concept of hotel. Once again, if you have no car... you won't walk back the 2km to find something to eat. You sleep on the floor. No surprise here and I slept particularly well so, no complains. Just be aware of that. Toilets, bath, all is shared. Room are old but all ok and one of the biggest space I got during this trip. Furnitures are also old. You may feel like you are staying at grandma place for a while. The building, from the 70's probably, is not sound proof. You may enjoy your neighbor sleep. As I did. I did book for 2. Probably because Trip was not proposing other option or because it was the cheapest one, not sure. The lady at the entrance kept me waiting for 15mn for that reason showing that she was embarrassed to give me the keys for that already paid room. This moment was uncomfortable to say the least. The remote part, the furnitures style, the oldish atmosphere, the old room door still requiring a key and that squeak a little bit... may not please everyone. It comes with its sweet creepy feeling. Not an hotel for everyone. But damn, the view in the morning... splendid.

Everyone of the employees will respond very comfortably, and in a good sense, if you don't want to interfere, watch over gently and follow with casual service. I didn't eat dinner, but the breakfast was a delicious and varied buffet. I was also happy with the service of yukata where you can choose the color pattern and the service where you can always have hot drinks.

Nice hotel in a good location, the only drawback (and a major one) is that WiFi in room 404 doesn’t work which is real shame, as otherwise it’ll be 5/5. I get a full signal but it doesn’t connect to the internet. Seems to be limited to the room as the internet works fine in the common areas.

Traditional ryukan with futon beds and shared public baths with buffet breakfast and dinner included. Whilst I enjoyed my first ryukan experience it may not be for everyone, the building is older and the cost is quite pricey for a family in my case anyway. Would still come again. We stayed here for two nights. The island is beautiful and I had a nice view of the rabbits and the ocean from the window. You can also rent bicycles at a reasonable cost. They don't sell rabbit food so you might want to prepare your own before you come to the island. I'm vegan and whilst they did say to ask the staff to show you which items were vegan at the buffets there really wasn't much choice especially at dinner. Maybe I should have made a special request before I arrived. There's no vegan food available for lunch at the cafe, so you'd need to bring your own food

It should be called Daguangyuan Hotel instead of Carrot Hotel. The hotel is large and well-equipped. It has a large bathhouse. I went there late that day and didn't take a shower, but the facilities were great. The room was clean and tidy, and I really liked the Japanese-style stay. Takehara City is a great place and I might like it more if I watch the anime Tamaki. I like the hotel to last for a long time.

June 4th and 7th (Hiroshima Airport is close: 10 minutes away) I stayed here twice because it was easy to arrive and depart, 4th day (7th floor twin) and 7th day (3rd floor twin). The room types on the 3rd and 7th floors were very different and it was noisy (3rd floor), so it was a bit uncomfortable, but the hot springs were good!!, and the breakfast was good!!

I used this hotel because my flight from Hiroshima the next day was early. I had children with me, so I received a set of amenities and towels for them at the front desk. It was a single room, but I was able to relax comfortably. The bathroom was new and clean! There was an amenity bar in the center of the lobby, so you could pick up what you needed yourself. They also had makeup remover, face wash, lotion, and cream. Personally, I was happy to see that they had ”Kotobukiya Coffee”! They also had decaffeinated drip coffee, which I was very happy about. They also had black tea, green tea, and chamomile tea. One bottle of mineral water per person. You can walk to the airport. For dinner, we went to the airport and had Hiroshima ramen and okonomiyaki at the food court (next to the observation deck)!
