4-Star Hotels in Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan

A decent hotel. The service was excellent. They offered free dandan noodles for a late-night snack. The hot springs were excellent. It happened to be the Lantern Festival, and the open-air baths, enjoying the cool breeze and bright moonlight, were quite relaxing. Just be sure to pay attention to the bus schedule from the hotel to the station. When booking, I thought it would run every hour, but it turned out to be only available at 15:10. Although we missed the shuttle, the bus was quite convenient. Just be sure to prepare small change in cash or PayPay. I personally think the 100-year-old plum wine is superb. Highly recommended.

The staff are friendly and welcoming. The housekeeping is excellent. The accommodation is close to a shopping mall and the train station, making it convenient for both private car and public transportation.

My stay at this accommodation was absolutely fantastic and far exceeded my expectations! The place was impeccably clean and wonderfully quiet, creating a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. The hosts were incredibly kind and attentive, making me feel right at home. One of the highlights was the food—breakfast and dinner were served daily, and each meal was unique, prepared with incredibly fresh ingredients. Every dish was delicious and thoughtfully crafted, adding a special touch to the experience. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable, clean, and welcoming stay. It’s truly exceptional and well worth it!

The hotel rooms are larger than those in typical Japanese hotels, and the breakfast is quite plentiful. However, the breakfast was the same for all three days of my stay, with no changes. Breakfast is supposed to be served until 9:00 AM, but the hotel is already cleared out by 8:50 AM, so you must arrive before 8:30 AM to avoid missing out. The breakfast room is large and comfortable. I would consider staying at this hotel again if I were to visit another city in the future, as its location is also excellent.

Its a coxy house in a residential area. Best to be there before it gets dark. But no worries too,as young English speaking lady will guide you if you are lost. Elderly man also makes great effort to speak in English. That's really very kind of them. Knowing that we are not Japanese.. Ryokan very well kept. Clean . Room was big and comfortable. Onsen was nice and cozy. Clean. Breakfast was good . Elderly guy walked us to the Inari Shrine ,1 min walk away. Very nice of him. If in that area, I recommend to stay here for a cosy clean ryokan experience. .

This hotel is just beside Mito train station. It's super convenient to get around the area whether by bus or train. There's also a lot of shops and restaurants nearby. Hotel room although is not very big but it's pretty comfortable for 2 of us, it is also clean and quiet.

Honestly it’s really normal, same price you can find a better choice. The front desk looks busy all the time and they didn’t give me any clothes (that they ask all the customers need to wear) and towels (in a bag). Most of device makes me confused, fortunately, the people who lived with me helped me. And the shower you need to push it almost all the time. When I check out I asked the front desk Is it possible to store my luggage, and they refused. Well at least, the food is good and the bed is clean. Not that bad, but I’m not gonna highly recommended.

The room is spacious and the bathtub is large enough to stretch your legs. It is a very beautiful hotel because there is also a wedding hall. The adjacent hot springs were lined up for the first time because the general public was also used because the time zone I went to was bad. I put hot water in a jacuzzi, lukewarm water, and a hot open-air bath comfortably. There is also a sauna. The parking lot is on the back of the hotel. It feels like the place to stop with the guest and the hot spring facility user is separated, but it is a little disappointing that the hot spring use 々 seems to be stopping and could not stop on the hotel side. But guests can stop for free. Overall it was a very clean and good hotel.

A very nice and clean hotel, with a convenient location. It is literally just next to Mito station, and there are ample restaurants nearby. The staff are very friendly, and they speak decent English. The onsen in the hotel is very nice.

The first time I stayed at the Hoshino Group hotel, the price may not be expensive because the area has fewer sightseeing resources. From the reception check in to the departure check out, I can feel the enthusiasm of the staff, and they take the job seriously. The interior design and decoration of the room are very good, making people feel that the CP value is high. Overall, this is a very well managed hotel. Although the occupancy rate seems to be low, this hotel should not make much money for Hoshino Group, but the staff still clean and manage it carefully. Ibaraki Prefecture previously promoted bicycle lanes on sightseeing, hoping to attract tourists to Ibaraki City. Tupu City has a very large lake, Xia ヶ Pu, so there is also a very complete bicycle lane. Unfortunately, this hotel, as the facade of the city, promotes bicycle tours, but employees do not know the bicycle lane at all, it is recommended that they ride or drive around by themselves (the bicycle lane often shares a road with the car). After actually riding the bicycle lane, I found that the original plan failed not without reason, the bicycle lane has no characteristics, only the pastoral and lake views, there are no shops or attractions along the road, I feel very bored riding on the road, even the people on the road see me riding a bicycle feel strange. Despite these minor drawbacks, there are many advantages, including the bikes they offer to rent are actually very advanced, but the charges are quite reasonable! To sum up, if you just want to stay in the hotel is highly recommended; if you want to go to Tupu City to ride a bicycle to see the scenery, then you may want to consider whether there are other better bicycle lanes, not Tupu City; If you just want to challenge to ride Xia ヶ Pu, then the 90km bike lane is perfect for you.
