I am going to list the good points first. I only have 2 negative points and I will list them at the end. We stayed here for 1 night and found it to be quite charming. It is literally across from the ferry station which we found to be a plus. We just got off the ferry and wheeled the... More

We chose to stay here after a friend's recommendation. It was great. The Japanese style room was huge (separate sitting and sleeping area as well as standard bathroom and toilet). The room was very clean and very comfortable. Staff were wonderful and the food even better. We are travelling on a tight budget and would thoroughly recommend this as a... More

The Yamaichi Bekkan is a simple Japanese Inn located opposite the pier where the JR and Hiroden ferries arrive. The owner, Shinko-san, offers an extremely warm welcome. She speaks good basic English and makes you feel part of the family. As owner of specialist Japan travel company InsideJapan Tours, I first visited here in 2003 as part of a trip... More

Across the road from the ferry terminal, we had a very warm welcome from Shinko-san, the owner. Her English is good and she will help you with maps and directions to make the most of your time on Miyajima. The room was a good size, clean and comfortable - nothing fancy but good enough. We didn't eat in the ryokan... More

You couldn't hope for a bigger welcome or fresher seafood. Our room was large with a sea view, own bathroom and traditional layout. The meals were great - loved the oysters - and it seems as good a location as any on such a small island. Very friendly and memorable More

My point is clear: please avoid this hotel (can you even call that a ryokan?). There are many reasons such as tiny rooms, dirty bathrooms and no common bath (not to mention hot spring) to make up for it, the necessity to come back before 12 midnight, the lack of comfort, the position right next to the ferry arbor, the...

This place was the highlight of our trip: we had a huge ryokan-style room, nice view, were served very nice food and the lady at the reception was so friendly! I can understand that one can be misled by all these positive sounding reviews. We had not been influenced by it, just booked the room two hours in advance in... More

This is the best value for a Japanese style hotel on Miyajima. The lady at the reception desk was extremely nice and very helpful. Our room with bath was fine -- tiny bath, small to medium size room. It is an older place, that is showing a bit of wear, but it is more than adequately clean and comfortable. It... More

Also the breakfast was absolutely delicious with japanese style, rice, misou soup, fish etc. The room was huge and very cozy , there was a big sleeping area with extremely comfortable beds, a table...
