Independent Kawatana Onsen hotels

"Stay for 4 night. The room is fantastic, spacious and clean. The lounge is a extra plus, very good atmosphere, has a vaccum hifi with vinyl disc player, tannoy speaker. You could play the jazz disc enjoy the mojiko beer here, very relaxing. The staff is very friendly and professional, I could not find my JR pass after check out. I went back to the front desk asked for help, the lady help me up to the room at once while the service lady was being clean up, she pull out all garbage and check. Although could not find, I was still appreciated their help and professional. The breakfast buffet quality was just so so..also not many choice."

"Helpful staff. Located near to JR Shimonoseki station. Many food, dining chices. Frequent bus services to Karato, Shimonoseki port, Dan-no-ura area from bus terminal right next to the hotel. But, room was small."

"We loved the hotel and staff. "

"**The positives: *The front desk staff was courteous, the cleaning staff was always friendly. *Nice (but cold/windy) area, super-close (~10m) to Kokura Station with plenty of conbini and vending machines. **Negatives: *Cramped bathroom, and I'm a 'global average' height of 179cm. Toilet paper dispenser was right where my phone wanted to be, while I was sitting on the toilet. Nowhere in the shower to put stuff, so I put it on the sink....which was tiny. I wound up putting the bottle of conditioner on the floor. I bumped elbows into walls, door frames, etc. I held the door-handle to steady myself while stepping down from the bathroom to the room's floor-level. *Disgusting amount of dust/etc. behind the toilet-operating panel, so I took a Q-tip and cleaned it for you. ugh. *Shower head holder wasn't firmly attached to the wall, adding to the "cheap" feeling of the bathroom. (ie. "It's cramped AND unmaintained.") *TV was at a weird angle and plugging my Switch into it made the video cut out for a second or so, every 10-30sec. *Just one elevator, although this was never an issue. *I heard a neighbor laughing (at the TV, I'd imagine) late Saturday night, but otherwise barely noticed any other guests. (But yeah...thin walls.) *The heater dried out the air in the room REALLY badly. Room needs a humidifier. *As usual, the option for a 2nd 'actual' pillow would be nice. *My GOODNESS the coin laundry here was overpriced. I didn't use it. I can wait. "

"I have stayed at the Kyoto location 2 weeks ago. really happy about this hotel in Kokura"
