Kinki Region Adults Only Holidays

Big room with all the hotel accessories available, friendly staff.

I couldn't tell from the photos on Expedia, but looking it up on Google after I booked it, I found out it was a love hotel. (Perhaps I should've noticed when the listing said, "adults only." Since it was non-refundable, I ended up staying there for a night. I've heard a rumor there are so many Chinese tourists in the area nowadays, most of the hotels are booked solid. Perhaps that's why an establishment like this decided to open up to non-love hotel users. Just a theory. They did seem to pretend like they were a normal hotel. Upon quick search, the tv channels didn't seem to have any porn. And I didn't see things like condoms in a vending machine. However, I did see a maid costume on sale inside the room. And there was also a prominent "neck massager" by the bed. In case you don't know what a Japanese love hotel is, I urge you to Google it.

Reasonably sized bath with water jets and extras, i.e massage chair, game console rental. Given the nature of the premises, staff aren’t always presently seen. But they are unread pleasant and helpful, especially when speaking slower in Japanese for foreign tourists and offering helpful tips, like locations of stations and nearby convenient stores. Big value for a decent night stay.
