Hiruzen Bear Valley Ski Area

We stayed in Setouchi Keirin for one night on arriving from Kyoto, on our way for Naoshima where we stayed for one night. It is a good hotel, we had a room with views of the racing bike tracks and the sea, with a good sized balcony. It was a very good and helpful set up for those wanting to explore Naoshima and other islands in the area without having to stay in Naoshima. The accommodations alternative in the island are either very expensive or limited. They have a shuttle service taking guests to the Port to catch a ferry to the islands. A good choice!

Staff were really friendly and helpful and the facility was very clean. Conveniently located close to the ferry port, a grocery store and some restaurants. Hotel stay included access to the Setouchi Onsen next door which was amazing!

We stayed for four days and had a very enjoyable visit. We booked a double room, which was slightly on the small side, but it was very comfortable and had a wonderful view of the city. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was spotless, and the outdoor hot baths were a real treat. The free shuttle bus to and from the station, which takes around 20 minutes, was really helpful. We also liked being slightly outside the city and enjoyed going for walks and runs from the hotel. Overall, a very relaxing and comfortable stay.
