Otaki 4 Stars Hotels

"Nice hotel onsen, clean and tidy. However lacks character and is sprawled over multiple buildings (all of which are architecturally quite ugly). Average breakfast buffet."

"Large hotel outside the city good for group travelers. Onsen on premises was excellent. Breakfast was also good. With my arrival I asked the reception to eat in a Japanese restaurant and was told only available the western restaurant with Pizza, burger etc…. I went to check the restaurants and checked the Japanese one if available and to my surprise they told me no problem I can get reservation which I did. I returned to the reception and asked why I was told otherwise. An apology was in place but I guess that’s the policy to separate the foreigners from locals so the atmosphere to be kept undisturbed by foreigners who some may have bad manners. Unfortunately it’s being repeated in many places I visited after the current flood of tourists. "

"The breakfast buffet had lots of options - I especially enjoyed the fresh fruit, bacon and eggs. The room was spotless and the shower was incredible after a long day - the pressure felt like a massage. The hotel lobby is beautiful and features wood and wood carvings from the local area. The onsen was also a wonderful treat at the end of the day, although, sadly, the outside area was closed during our stay. "

"Very commercial onsen hotel with lots of staff onsite when checking in to a point it actually feels quite overwhelming. A nice touch when arriving where they allow you to drop off the luggage and drive into the parking lot where a mini shuttle is there to drive you back to the hotel but the negative is the next morning when you’re leaving you’re left dragging your luggage down a slight slope where it makes you feel like valued guest when you arrive but when you’re leaving they don’t really care especially when me and my partner went for a dip in the morning then proceeded to breakfast and thought we might have a Power Nap till 10:30 before hitting the road but to our surprise by the time we finished breakfast and got back to the room the mattress and the bedding was all cleaned up and it felt like they literally wanted you out which was kinda disappointing to say the least and it really didn’t make you feel like you’re on holidays. The sites had quite a few onsen options but the town shuts quite early so remember to get yourself sorted early or you may be stuck either paying resort priced restaurants or stuck eating convenient store food because there is not much open late in the evening so plan before you go for a dip. Additionally the rooms and in generally the hotel looks abit tired also. Overall not a great experience especially this was our first port of call since arriving in Nagoya. Not a great way to start the trip. "

"Nice sized room, loved the private onsen and close to the station. Also close to downtown with a small walk. Staff is strict on check in times so be aware, early check in is not possible"

"Very welcoming and accommodating staff. Lovely room. Great bathrooms. Close to tourist areas. "
