Hotels Near Drum rock (Taiko-iwa) in Yakushima

We spent 2 nights here at the beginning of March and absolutely loved it. We had two Japanese style rooms (one per person), with Tatami mats on the floor and Futons as a bed. We had a toilet, but a bit strangely no shower, which was not a problem, because in the indoor and outdoor baths, there are good shower facilities. The rooms are a bit small, but totally okay for one person (for two persons it would be a bit crowded). The indoor and outdoor baths are lovely and as usual, separated by gender. We had halfboard included, which was amazing. Dinner is a several courses Kaiseki dinner, and really tasty and diverse. If you dont eat meat, seafood and fish, you will not be happy however. Breakfast is a japanese bento box, and a small buffet. For lunch, you can order a bento box, which we did, and which was very tasty and the best bento box I had so far in 3 trips to Japan. Staff is very friendly, and even if they dont speak much englisch, they really go out of their way to help. The Ryokan is just opposite the small airport, where there is also a bus stop. In easy walking distance there are two supermarkets, and a very good italian restaurants (Il Mare), which make excellent pizza and pasta, using local ingredients like ****ake mushrooms and boar meat. The buses run very unfrequently, so you are better off with a rental car. Its excellent value for money, especially if you love japanese food.

Morinokokage was by far the best place we stayed during our trip. The rooms were big, clean and very comfortable. There’s free laundry machines/dryers and a building open 24/7 with food and drink vending machines. Our host, Nakashima-San was incredibly helpful and welcoming. He gave us a detailed tour of our rooms when we checked in, booked reservations for us at his favorite local spots and gave advice on how to best spend our two days on the island. When the weather changed our plans, he repeatedly checked in with us with helpful updates. After we told him we were going to hike in shiratani unsuikyo the next morning, he knocked on our door an hour or so later to give us a lighter and salt in case of leeches! He also gifted us a hefty bag of tea the morning we left. Don’t hesitate, this is a really special place and Nakashima-San is a deeply caring and wise host.

Very friendly and kind hosts! They drove us to the bus stop and made vegan cake for us. The onsen is also very beautiful and the rooms were perfect for our stay. If you come to Yakushima, you should definitely stay there! Supermarket is only 5 min away by foot.

This hotel was booked for us by Y.E.S. Yakushima tours and it was a great choice that we really enjoyed. If you've stayed at a non-chain hotel that has been around a while you know not to expect the Ritz. It's a little worn down, but it's clean and safe and the staff are great. Our room was a traditional Japanese-style with lots of room and the most beautiful view of the mountains and the Anbo river! There are public baths separated by gender you can soak in which was nice. We didn't have dinner there (which we probably should have since the restaurant selection within walking distance is minimal) but had breakfast every morning and it was always tasty and filling.

I was taken care of for 3 nights with 2 couples in repeat. The room was beautiful and I had a room, futon, bath and amenities every day. In addition, the luxury of fish dishes and the service response of the staff were good, which was more than 3 expectations with dinner main dishes. The location is also located in the mountaineering exit of awa, and it is good location for the purpose of mountaineering, and there is a coop (super) of tavern and awa port around, and it is convenient for Yakushima. I would like to take care of you when I go to Yakushima again.

A hotel I used to take a high-speed boat from Awa Port in the early morning. Arrived in about 10 minutes on foot from the bus stop. About 5 minutes on foot from Awa Port. Impression that it is a convenient place. The room has one bed that is not very comfortable to sleep in. It was recommended for double beds, couples and families, but I might want to sleep alone in this size ... The room smells more moldy than the interior. I can't stand staying for consecutive nights for many days ... I'm sorry. .. As for towels, I'm not good at thickness, which is poor in water absorption, and I'm not happy with this either. (The towel didn't smell strange) I was planning to board the boat early in the morning, so I chose only dinner for meals. The dinner, the tobio and the kama baked were delicious! I was impressed because I ate the tobio for the first time. I often see it flying in the local Mie sea, but I was happy that I had never eaten it because it wasn't harvested much. It is also good to be close to A Coop. The reception of the wife in the cafeteria is also natural and very good.

1) Paddler services are not widely used in Japan, and I thought that there are few such wonderful paddler services. I would like to extend my deepest gratitude to Mr. Paddler A, who was indebted to me personally and provided a wonderful service to other customers as well. 2) Regarding meals, the comfortable food menu was sophisticated, and although it was a simple menu such as salads and hamburgers, it was made with great care and was delicious! (There are some other menus that I'm interested in, and I'm looking forward to the next time.) On the other hand, I wondered if there was another menu for creative dishes and breads. (I think there are personal tastes ...) 3) Regarding drinks, there were many local products such as original drinks, and I enjoyed it very much. On the other hand, regarding the serve of wine etc., although it is a luxury hotel restaurant and from 2000 yen / glass, there is no tasting, detailed explanation, follow-up, etc., so I was reluctant. 4) The atmosphere of the room, facilities and amenities (local brands and environmentally friendly products) are also excellent. In addition, two types of soaps were installed, and I was able to choose the scent that suits my mood. However, although the shaver is a high-class item, it is very heavy and not easy to use, so I think it would be more convenient if it was a little lighter and cheaper to use. thank you for helping me!

The hotel is very good, the sea view is invincible, and the restaurant is beautiful. The hotel has room types on both sides of the sea and the woods, but there is no choice when booking. We have noted that we need to rely on the sea through Trip.com. The downside of the hotel is that it is far from the pier and the airport, a diagonal. If you take the bus to the attractions, it will be very tossing. Many travel notes on the Internet are by bus, and it is more convenient to live in Miyagi-ura Port or Anagawa Port. It is recommended to pack a tour guide and rent a taxi here.

When I chose this hotel on Yakushima, I would definitely make a mistake. Open the window and it is 270 degrees of the sea. It is a small building for petty bourgeoisie. The breakfast is very good, the rooms are very good, and the service is very good! The price/performance ratio is much better than that of the non-famous Iwasaki Hotel next to it, and the hotel has a hot spring, that is, there is no gym or swimming pool, but the hotel definitely has a 5-star feel. It is very warm. On Yakushima, you must choose this hotel, which is the best it is good!
