Centrally located near the train station and fish market. The hotel may look aged but the service is top rate especially the ladies serving the meals. The hotel is very organised. It has a decent in house Onsen or you can request to use the cave onsen on the island. The Japanese dinner and breakfast were very very good !

Hotel sits facing the sea with an superb view and sound of the waves from the room. Location is good with lots of restaurants and grocery stores within short driving distance.

Traditional Japanese room. Nice Onsen. Breakfast was a tray at a designated table for us - was ok but prefer buffet so you can choose what to eat. Close to waterfalls Room had a balcony with a sea view

Great Japanese style room of good size. So close to the station. The dinner meal was spectacular. Our best meal while in Japan. A great place to finish walking the Kumono Kodo trail.

We had a group of 5 people and stayed in the Deluxe family room. Everything was clean and prepared for our arrival and the staff showed us around all of the facilities and explained everything to us in English as we did not speak much Japanese, Not all of the staff spoke English, however anytime we had a query that required it they would always help us to speak with someone who did which was extremely helpful. The room itself was extremely spacious and came with 2 large beds and 3 tatami beds that were setup for us when we went for dinner. The room had all of the amenities that you could need and also gave each person a yukata and sandals that could be worn around the entire site. The balcony overlooks the bay and other areas on the island and is very beautiful, particularly at sunrise and sunset. The food for both dinner and breakfast was exceptional. The staff were extremely attentive and explained each of the courses to us in English and were always on hand for even the smallest request. There is a fantastic walk on the top of the island that is accessible via the main lift and is a brilliant spot for photographs or just to relax in the quiet although the staff explained that it is closed when it is dark so make sure not to miss out on it if you are interested. The site has both indoor and outdoor Onsen's which are rotated between Men and Women each day. These were extremely well kept and have all of the necessities for showering beforehand etc. These were absolutely the highlight of the accommodation and I would thoroughly recommend that everyone uses them at least once during their stay. The boats to and from the mainland can be arranged with staff up to every 15 minutes and they can also arrange a free taxi shuttle service from the dock to the train station nearby I would also just like to mention about how exceptional all of the staff were. We felt welcome from the moment we set foot on the boat to the moment we stepped back off it.

The hotel was quite massive and dated, and truthfully, i was initially sceptical as I disliked huge hotels that are always frequented by tour groups, but this hotel proved me wrong. Despite the number of people we saw every day checking in, there was more than enough space for everyone, on top of that I actually found that despite the hotels age, all the deco and everything else added to the overall charm of the place which I ended up throughly enjoying. They even had a Lawons on site for convenience! Rooms were spacious, clean, and functional with daily amenities like toothbrushes and shavers, etc. We stayed in the main building and had views out to to the bay, which was quite amazing. The highlight was their various onsens, which were phenomenal, especially the cave ones where you can hear the sound of waves crashing. Indoor ones were great as well with ample space for everyone. Go late or before breakfast, and you'll have the indoor ones all to yourself, which i did on multiple occasions and really enjoyed the peace and quiet. Oh, don't forget to try their space walker (escalator) that takes you up to the highest building, the whole ride takes you 5mins45sec and I think it's supposedly the longest or highest in Japan?

The hotel is about 20 min walk from the train station but they have a free shuttle which made it perfectly convenient. It was absolutely worth being slightly further away as the hotel is located on a small cove which feels like you have private access to the sea and gives beautiful views from the rooms! There is an indoor and outdoor onsen (natural hot spring baths) both with lovely views and a comfortable temperature, with complimentary amenities. We had breakfast and one dinner at the hotel and everything was delicious, generous portions with attention given to seasonal and local produce. They were also able to cater to our dietary requirements (pescatarian and scallop allergy) well. At one point one of our party suffered a burn (NOT the hotel’s fault) and the staff were so helpful in providing us what we needed and were very kind.

The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. We arrived after the hotel restaurant had closed and the manager was so concerned that we wouldn't have something to eat for dinner that he personally drove us into town to a local restaurant. Our Japanese style room was relaxing with a beautiful view and by the end of our very short trip to Taiji, it felt like the staff were our good friends. Looking forward to returning.
