Shibo 3 Stars Hotels

"Staff and location "

"The staff was incredibly kind - greeted me with a smile and the check in process was smooth as was the check out! The room was nice and clean but there wasn’t any soap whatsoever in my room. I’m sure if I needed some I could have asked but I was only there for a night and then I left so it didn’t really matter. The bed was also pretty stiff so I had a little trouble falling asleep but if you like a hard mattress you’ll sleep just fine. The hotel is right in front of a river and walking distance to the Kotohira-gu Shrine. I will definitely be booking again for my next trip to Kotohira!"

"Amazing artistic surroundings, the public spaces are decorated beautifully, it was lovely to spend time enjoying them. The massage was superb too as well as the daily Japanese breakfasts. We stayed 6 nights and it was so nice to come back to the hotel every night to relax after being out on the islands to see the art."

"Staff was super. Location and hotel were great. Only complaint would be that the walls are a bit thin and the room next door was quite noisy until 2am. "

"All was perfect"

"The hotel is beautiful. The staff is excellent. The onsen is the best we have encountered. We used it 3 times! The little convenience store is not great but the airport is close and the shuttle is free! The nearby Sanuki Kodomonokuni was SO MUCH FUN for the whole family and it is FREE!!! We could have spent two days just hanging out there doing the many activities! The breakfast was repetitive but had a good selection and it had things we all enjoyed! The airport has good restaurants if you don’t want to make your way back into town (where there are wonderful restaurants and of course the beautiful Ritsurin Gardens). The car dealership next door has a better vending machine than the hotel for soda pop, but the vending machines in the “resting room” (connect to the unseen change rooms) had good options, and a whole machine of ice cream."
