Kurashiki Mount Washu Observatory Hotels

"I loved this hotel. It was a short taxi ride from the train station and located right on the edge of the historical quarter and had access directly into it. Room was compact but clean and comfortable. I highly recommend a stay here"

"Excellent place to stay especially if you want to explore Naoshima or the other islands near by. Close to the docks and the trains. Breakfast buffet choices are extensive and the staff is always friendly and helpful. If we are going back to this part of Japan we will definitely book there."

"항구뷰가 넘 좋았으며 방도 쾌적하고 대욕장 좋았어요 다음에도 재방문하고싶은곳~"

"The experience at this hotel was wonderful! Really friendly and helpful staff and the luggage transfer service recommended worked out great. The views from the property are amazing, and it was a good location for exploring the art museums from. Beautifully designed rooms also. I would stay again!"

"A nice hotel that needs the rooms deep cleaned or renovated. Location is great and the staff was nice. Free drink of Sake when checking in. Beds were so so. The room we had, had a bit of a sour milk smell. Carpets need to be deep cleaned or replaced."

"Very crowded place. Breakfast was average and crowded. We couldn’t get parking on the premises but got it nearby. Room was small but had table and essentials"

"What a fantastic place. It was ideal given that I was visiting Naoshima. If you to the same, make sure you reserve a bike ahead of time. The baths they give you access to are also spectacular and it was the best breakfast I had while in Japan. They have lots of amenities and it’s beautiful."

"Hotel incorporated into a velodrome away from the port but easy walk to catch the ferry to the islands. Lunch and dinner menu's offered are not up to Japanese standard so you need to eat at Uno port unless you want fried food. Breakfast okay but no fresh fruit. A word of warning even if you just want a drink at the restaurant after your day you need to book at reception on your return to the hotel. Also need to book shuttle if you want transfer to Uno station on any day. Bike hire available for taking on the ferry for Island tours. Rooms small so travel light as no room for larger suitcases."

"Great hotel a few meters from Bikan Historical Quarter. Good standard size room, staff polite and professional, the onsen is a plus. The breakfast spread could be improved by providing more choices for western guests. All that rice and fish were too much for the western taste. A cereal or yoghurt wouldn’t hurt. "
