Although the hotel building and its facilities are a little bit old, the room is very clean and hotel staff are very friendly. It takes about 15 minutes’ walk from New Shirakawa (Shin Shirakawa) Train Station, or you can catch a taxi at about 1000 Yen. There are several restaurants located within five minutes’ walking distance, however, it is relatively far from downtown Shirakawa and Komine Castle.

部屋は広くて非常に清潔、快適に宿泊できました。特にお風呂はビジネスホテルなのに大きくてくつろげます。残念なのはアメニティの数があまり多くないのとWi-Fiの速度が遅いこと、朝食のカレーがあまりおいしくなかったのが残念。ウエルカムドリンクを用意してほしい。(お茶だけではなくコーヒーか紅茶も用意してほしい)

とても綺麗で清潔なお部屋でした。部屋が広い上お風呂が広くて感動しました。国道沿いにあるので車でくる人は良いと思いますが新幹線でくる人はちょっと歩くので遠く感じる人もいるかもしれません。とても良いホテルでしたがWi-Fiの速度が遅いのと、朝ごはんのメニューがちょっと残念でした。
