Hot Springs Hotels in Kagawa Prefecture, Japan

I was very satisfied with my stay this time! The hotel's overall environment was clean and tidy, and the room was spacious and bright, with complete and well-maintained facilities. The bedding was comfortable, allowing me to sleep soundly through the night. The front desk staff were very enthusiastic and efficient with both check-in and check-out, and patiently answered all my questions. The location is also very convenient, with easy access to transportation and a wide variety of dining options nearby. Overall, it offers excellent value for money. I highly recommend it whether you're traveling for business or leisure, and I'll definitely choose to stay here again if I have the chance!

This hotel gave me a big surprise. The environment, service, facilities and food are all above average. What I like most is that the hot spring facilities are large and comfortable. There are also flower hot springs and all-you-can-drink Japanese sake. It is an extraordinary experience. Highly recommended!

The staff of Olivean Shodoshima Yuhigaoka Hotel are professional and considerable. Their service are excellent, especially 1) The shuttle bus driver (morning shift strong man, forgot asking his name). When we arrived at Shodoshima Ferry Pier at 11:00am on April 7, we found a hotel shuttle bus, but not sure if it's the one of our staying hotel. We asked the driver if it's the one that waiting to pick us up. He said yes, but the hotel check-in time should be 3:00pm in the afternoon. He suggested us to have the sightseeing first and helped register the afternoon time for picking us instead. Also, he suggested taking our hand carry bags to the hotel front desk to avoid we carrying too heavy bags while travelling. 2) The lady staff (sorry for forgetting her name) at the lobby hall, who was very proactive. She came over immediately to help taking photos for us when she found we're taking a selfie. She also served us with free drinks for enjoying the sunset at the hall. 3) The staff at the reception desk are very professional. They helped us for check-in, explained the details of the time for meals, and provided all the information required. 4) The foods for dinner & breakfast buffet are very nice and yummy. The restaurant is clean and tidy. Overall, Olivean Shodoshima Yuhigaoka Hotel is a very professional and comfortable accommodation for stay. We're pleased and feel glad choosing this hotel.

Here’s a concise and enthusiastic hotel review in English: I highly recommend this hotel! The location is absolutely unbeatable — just a 3-5 minute walk from a vibrant nightlife district and a food street packed with amazing options. The on-site bathhouse is spotless and even offers free ice cream, which was a delightful surprise. Breakfast is incredibly rich and varied, with something for everyone. Overall, a fantastic stay — I’d definitely come back!

The room didn't have a private onsen, but there was a public bath, and the hot springs were really comfortable, both indoor and outdoor. I highly recommend everyone try it. Breakfast was also very rich, the service was excellent, and the environment was very good.

A wonderfully located hotel right in front of the Takamatsu Station. It is also relatively new hotel. So amenities and room are very client centric! Onsen is rather small but clean. Breakfast is at a Izakaya on the ground level. It is a set meal. One can choose from 3 options. We had the same food for two days. The hotel is literally across the Takamatsu Castle.

The hotel’s service was exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to make our stay memorable. The scenery was breathtaking, offering stunning views that made every moment special. Breakfast and dinner were outstanding, featuring delicious dishes that showcased local flavors. To top it off, they surprised us by preparing a famous local cake to celebrate my wife’s birthday, which was a delightful and thoughtful touch. Everything was perfectly arranged, and their attention to detail truly impressed us. This hotel exceeded our expectations, and we’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for a remarkable experience.

I was surprised by how small the room was for a hot spring ryokan. With two suitcases, there was barely any room to walk. There was no Wi-Fi signal in the room, and the explanation given was that too many guests were using it simultaneously that night. Wi-Fi was only available in the hallway and lobby. Although the staff tried hard to resolve the issue, there was no solution, so we had to use our own mobile data (as an apology, they gave us a small souvenir when we checked out). Additionally, the 'one night, two meals' package... At over ¥2200, it was ¥1200 more expensive than just the room, but both dinner and breakfast were very mediocre. Compared to a hot spring ryokan I stayed at previously on Shodoshima (which wasn't great either, but at least the food was refined), the meals here were far inferior. There were only three small slices of sashimi, and there were even fish scales on the fish. For ¥1200, two people could have had many better dining options outside. The hot spring was decent, but nothing particularly impressive.

Since I was traveling to Takamatsu in January and April, I did a lot of comparisons and finally chose the Sanuki Shionoe Onsen Hotel. The ryokan is a bit out of the way, but it's easy to find if you're driving and have a GPS. The hotel is a relatively large, standalone building in the area, and while its exterior isn't particularly special, it has the Japanese-style onsen ryokan aesthetic that many travelers prefer. Many local Japanese tourists visit here. The guest rooms are very spacious and clean, and fully equipped. We booked two rooms, including breakfast and dinner. The price was a bit high, but dinner turned out to be a Japanese-style buffet. Although the variety wasn't as extensive as in larger, formal hotels, all the traditional Japanese dishes were available, and to our surprise, they even had teppanyaki wagyu beef! The food tasted great, and we were very satisfied. There aren't many hot springs, just one indoor and one outdoor, but the onsen water is incredibly smooth – it's the best I've soaked in recently. So I specifically recommend this hotel to friends planning to visit the area. The overall service at the hotel was also excellent!

Friends, go for it with confidence! The cost-effectiveness is really high, and the transportation is very convenient, everyone can come and experience it! The service attitude of the staff is very good, polite and courteous, there is nothing wrong with it, just come and give it five stars, the experience is first-class, in short, I highly recommend everyone to check in, the cost performance is very high, the transportation is also convenient, it completely stimulates my desire to go out ( ´͈ ᵕ `͈ )◞♡
