My stay at the hotel was truly wonderful. The rooms were spacious and had separate areas, including a private open-air bath. The views from the room were simply breathtaking, especially in the Japanese style room. The dining experience in the western-style restaurant was good, but I missed the traditional tatami room vibe.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The service was exceptional, with the staff being very nice, kind, and taking pride in their work. The location showcases the bay at its best with breathtaking beauty, especially with the glass floor-to-ceiling windows and the view of the bay from the terrific onsen baths. The dining experience was top-notch with fresh and excellent dishes, although I wish it was available for a bit longer than 9 am. The facilities were outstanding, enhancing my overall experience.
