Ideal stay in Fukuyama

The hotel is a 2 minute walk from the railway station and directly opposite Fukuyama Castle. Position, position! Service and amenities excellent. The breakfast served in "the lounge" was very good and from 2pm until 11pm free, self-serve hot and cold beverages, juice etc are availabe in the lounge. There is not a lot to do/see in Fukuyama, but if you find yourself in need of accommodation there, I highly recommend this hotel.

Best located hotel in Fukuyama

Some of the staff were a bit stiff, but the manager was very friendly. The room was clean. Very convenient to the station. The breakfast was good although became crowded, get there early to avoid crowds. The bed was a good size but too soft. A fairly good stay.

Convenient budget hotel close to shinkansen.

Budget hotel right by shinkansen station and also next to Fukuyama Castle. Great location for good price. Decent room, clean, but small, but perfect for those who are touring throughout southern japan during the day and just at the hotel to sleep.

We found the hotel very convenient to the Shinkansen station and the castle. It was very clean and very comfortable. We stayed two nights and really enjoyed our delicious breakfasts. Beautiful view of the castle from our windows. The staff is very friendly and understands some English.
