Tu alojamiento en Naoshima

As long as your expectations are set at around a hostel level, then this place is great. Lovely views, convenient location, rooms are clean and feel fairly spacious, nicely designed. Beyond that, we felt there was more care that could have been extended. We left our bags as it was too early to check in, and spent the day out sight seeing in extreme heat. When we returned, complete overheated and exhausted, our bags were still at the bottom of 3 levels of stairs, so we had to lug them up three levels. We then arrived at our room and it was like a sauna! No air conditioning on and the fridge was turned off! So the cold drinks we had bought had no way of staying cold as the fridge took time to work. The air con took ages to cool down the room. It would have been a really simple gesture, knowing the heat and knowing we were unlikely to get bank to our room until later, to turn those on for us. There was also no warning given about dinner options - most things book out and close early. The restaurant attached to My Lodge just shrugged their shoulders when we looked for solutions. It would make a huge difference to the stay of guests if, upon check-in or even at the time of booking, they were advised about limited dinner options. And if in Summer, air conditioning and fridges were turned on. I understand that taking bags to the room may be too much for the owners as it’s a steep climb, but this also may prove difficult for some guests, so something to be aware of. These may sound like small things, but they made our stay so much more tiring and uncomfortable.

A tres minutos a pie de Pupu, esta es una renovación de la vivienda privada de Pupu. La utilicé cuando visité el Festival Internacional de Arte de 2022 en casa. No hay recepción ni personal. Utilizar su habitación reservada sólo puede quedarse en la habitación. No tienes que preocuparse. Utilizo ”Charlie Room”. Con cuarto de baño, salón y cuarto de baño privado. La cocina pequeña tiene nevera, microondas y calefacción eléctrica, donde puede hacer algunos platos pequeños. Es limpio, práctico, fácil de usar, muy bueno.

Hotel familiar, el desayuno es único. En una casa antigua, el espacio es un poco estrecho. Es bastante conveniente para jugar, hay una estación cerca.

I got a whole house. Didn't expect it to be that big: kitchen, living, bedroom, shower, toilet, washing machine, all that in a quiet surrounding, with all the privacy you want.

Large yurt with 4 beds. Very clean. Quite hard beds. Excellent location near Benesse Museum (walking distance, or next to bus stop). Excellent airconditioning. Toilets and shower are quite far from the yurts. Basic comfort but that’s ok. Very quite place. Diner is good: you get a large plate with plentiful of meat and some shrimps, vegetables to put on a table bbq. Breakfast is too basic and not our taste: Japanese udon noodles. Tip: go to the nearby Terrace restaurant : you get an excellent breakfast buffet with tons of choice for around 25-30 euro.

En octubre de 2023, se quedó una noche en la habitación doble de vista del mar (balcón) Mejor que me apetece. En cualquier caso, el balcón de la habitación es un gran paisaje. El diseño original de decoración interior y exterior de hoteles con el concepto de Wen conocido como nuevo La comida de un restaurante adyacente llamado FORQ es deliciosa Sólo el desierto puede ver la bicicleta desde el balcón Conveniencia de transporte a la isla de arte ”direct Island” ¡Cuidado! La cena del restaurante es la misma que la de los clientes comunes, y no puedo sentarme en una ventana porque necesitaré reservar. Cuando miramos el juego desde el balcón, el viento del mar es grande y la noche es fría. Hay máquinas automáticas para la venta de vino, por lo que si quieres beber, debes llevarlo. Caminar a los supermercados y tiendas de conveniencia más recientes es un poco difícil Parece que sólo se puede ver en el balcón durante la bicicleta de medianoche. No se puede utilizar una gran piscina pública durante la carrera, sólo se puede mover Comentario Además de los amantes de bicicletas, también se puede recomendar hoteles. Se recomienda como alojamiento para visitar una isla de arte “directa”.

My husband and I chose the Uno Hotel because we wanted easy access to the art islands in the Seto Inland Sea. Hotel is a 3 or 4 minute easy walk to Uno Port which is the gateway to those islands. And ferry ride only about 15 minutes one-way. We expected the art islands to be great but this is a new hotel so we took a chance. Wow, what a wonderful experience on every level; the room, hotel team, restaurant, and the food was exceptional. The Uno Hotel is also within a 1 minute walk to a building which houses Onsen (hot springs baths and spa) and a Japanese restaurant, which they also own. (We did not have time to explore those but heard great things.) I could rave about the restaurant in the hotel called “Bluno” for days….we enjoyed breakfasts and dinners there - each superb with great attention-to-detail. A special treat was meeting restaurant manager Mr. Aran Teruo Pascual. He was kind, professional and personally makes one want to return in addition to the food and contemporary bright setting. The front desk team is warm, welcoming and attentive. When making a reservation I noticed there are multiple hotels or inns that have the name “Uno” in it so my suggestion is that you note that it is the Uno Hotel. I recommend higher floor on the water side, the hotel is not on the water, but lovely view. We look forward to returning.

Fun and quirky Ryokan in a good location to discover Uno and the islands

I had kind of an odd but fun stay at Setonite, for a night stopover before heading to Naoshima. To start, I called the hotel to see if they had any space for the night, and they told me that they’re fully booked. But when I looked online, I saw rooms available, so I thought, ok, I’ll just book online, maybe it was a language barrier thing. In reality, they probably just didn’t want to deal with the stress of an English speaking guest given their English is very limited, and, at least when I was there, all of the other clientele were locals. When I got there and explained I had booked online, it appeared to cause a little mayhem, as they ran around trying to make it work. I did have to wait a while to get taken to my room, but somehow the staff seemed so nice and good natured that I couldn’t bring myself to be bothered by it. The room was a sort of glamping-style experience, serviceable but fairly basic, and I will say the guest area while nice is not quite as appealing as in the photos. It did come with a fairly stern set of rules in a laminated piece of paper, including “bedtime is 10pm!” Communicating with the staff became such a production, through non-stop use of Google translate, that the staff and I couldn’t help but laugh about it. And overall, I felt the staff were easily the best thing about the hotel - they all seemed like they were good friends with one another, a bunch of young and friendly locals that were both having fun and attending to the guests at the same time. The campfire at night (with marsh mallows provided by the hotel) was a nice touch to the experience. They made me feel at home, and I’m very grateful for their hospitality.
