“We chose to stay at a hotel in the mountains, in a beautiful and quiet area. The location is on a hill with breathtaking mountain views. Rooms were elegant and well-furnished, with clean and spacious bathrooms. Staff were always courteous and helpful, ensuring we had everything we needed. Breakfast was abundant and varied, with a splendid mountain view from the veranda. The indoor pool with panoramic glass made our stay even more enjoyable.”

“Our stay at Ebisu Imadegawa was great. The spacious room had a handy kitchenette with pots, plates, and cutlery available from reception. The in-room washing machine was a lifesaver halfway through our trip. Although the location was a bit secluded, several bus routes were just a couple of minutes away, making it easy to reach any destination within 20-30 minutes. We enjoyed the tranquility of the neighborhood, with its traditional Japanese houses and proximity to popular tourist attractions. The free bike rental was fantastic for exploring the city. The friendly reception staff spoke excellent English and were extremely helpful, even arranging a taxi for our early morning departure. Cons: Everything was exactly what we needed and wanted!”
