Hotele Hot Springs w: Chiba Prefecture, Japan

No need to reserve hotel shuttle is a relief, especially if arriving at airport and unable to clear Immigration on time as in our case. The timings of the shuttle is displayed at the board at Bus Stop 16 where most hotel shuttles pickup ate there. The highlight for our stay is the Yurajuko hot spring resort or complex next to the hotel from which we were given complimentary Pass to the hot spring. All shoes, footwares must be put away in the lockers outside before going into the front desk to register entry. to collect a special wrist band for payment later at the front desk after eating in the restaurant or foodcourt inside (which turned out to be satisfying in terms of quality and price). There might also be entertainment on the stage; eg a Hawaiian theme dance segments were performed during our time there. The room was ok. Only one issue is we didn't know how to turn on the Aircon. Later, we found 2 switches at the bedside table for switching on and off the Aircon. But that night, we decided not to use the Aircon at all but simply open the window which is netted to prevent insects from entering. The cool air during the day and the cold air at night is fresh enough for sleeping comfortably. Since it's May and the weather was good that day!

We stayed at Narita Art Hotel with our family on June 30 before our flight to Sri Lanka from Narita Airport. It was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The room was clean, comfortable, and spacious enough for our family. The staff were friendly and helpful, making us feel very welcome. The hotel was peaceful, and we had a great night’s sleep before our journey. Its convenient location near Narita Airport made our travel stress-free. We truly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable place to stay before or after a flight.

We were looking forward to the The Farm stay to end our fiat Japan trip. We were 3 kids below 10 and 2 adults. The best parts of the trip were, 1. Staff - mai and Narumi were very helpful. Mai especially took a lot of trouble to explain everything at the farm by using Google translate. Even the staff at the cafe at breakfast time and reception were all very very nice, though I don’t have their names. 2. Hot springs - was super experience and we loved it. Everything clean and proper and very comfortable, even though we were walking around naked. 3. Rooms- I stayed at Habita. It was good and kids loved it quite a bit. The loft, the futon on top, though the projector didn’t work too well. 4. Strawberry farm trip was amazing. The strawberries were all super nice and melting in the mouth with the right textures and flavours. Even better if? 1. BBQ- we wanted to do a bbq. Habita package didn’t come with free BBQ. The cost to do one was crazy expensive. 3,300 per adult and 2,200 per child just for ‘equipment’ cost. That’s 13,000yen or around USD80, without any meats or anything. Felt really excessive, so we opted out. 2. Board and card games- our family wanted to play some board games and there were plenty of those at the reception. When we asked if we could get a pack of UNO, we were told it was only for the ‘cottage’ occupants. Considering most of the property was empty, it was a bit sad that they did not allow us a pack to play with. 3. Though not the fault of the property, the lack of any public transport and the very taxi costs to outside world for anything was a negative. It would have been even better if they could arrange a couple of more shuttles to narita or to local town etc.

What a place to stay !! For a first Onsen style capsule pod hotel, this blew all expectations out the water. Massage facilities as well as electric massage chairs, study/work nooks, a shop, and four restaurants to cater any craving needs. Remove your shoes immediately and place them in a locker (located to the right when you enter the hotel). Exceptionally clean facilities, the onsen has numerous washing areas, a cold plunge pool, Sauna (90-100°C), Jacuzzi bath, three mineral hot baths, and outdoor hot bath, plus Ion bath. The Onsen is open until 1am and is busy from 5pm-10pm daily. Massages start from around 2000¥ Sleeping pods are spacious, although the lockable lockers within the pods are around 9 inches deep. There’s a hanging rail, and beside the sleeping area you’ll find a TV, power outlet, and standard USB charging point. Access: The hotel is located on the 1st floor. Use the outdoor escalators beside the bus terminal. There’s a McDonalds plus various other eateries and shops within the shopping mall, including a supermarket that sells everything from lighting, small/large electronics, and bicycles. If you’re visiting Makuhari Messe like I did, Uber will cost you 2000-3000¥ each way - taking around 10 minutes in peak hour traffic. The local staffed train station is located beside the Bus Terminal, providing decently quick access into Tokyo. Staff were extremely friendly, smiling, and always happy to help. There is a smokers lounge room within the hotel.

I went there to relax and unwind from work! The massage within the hotel was excellent, with skilled therapists. Even though I had a breakfast-included plan, the buffet had a wide variety of delicious options. My room was oceanfront, and the interior seemed to have been recently renovated, as the facilities felt modern and stylish, making it very comfortable. The futon and pillows were incredibly comfortable for sleeping. Being able to watch Netflix and YouTube also made my solo trip feel complete. Although I couldn't use the private open-air bath because it was full, the public large bath also had an open-air section, and it was great that there were different types of hot springs in different areas! Overall, I was extremely satisfied and would love to come back again. Next time, I'd like to try a dinner-included plan and also use the lounge.

My wife and I live in Tokyo, but we decided to come here for a couple of days to enjoy the onsen. We were very surprised!! The hotel is super clean with a comfortable mattress. The breakfast did not have so many options, but it was very delicious. The soups and pizza and pasta were amazing. The onsen was great and the staff were kind. The mattress was Serta. Very comfortable!! We loved the area. The hotel is next to a big mall. T-Site, near the hotel had a large book store with coworking spaces with coffee shops. Of particular note is a coffee shop themed after the Beatles, called Penny Lane. The unique restaurants, coffee shops and drinking places In the Kashiwanohana area are amazing!!!! You can easily find great restaurants and unique coffee shops in the area. We also went to a huge park called Kashiwanohana Park. We spent a few hours there enjoying tea at the coffee shop in the park. This area is very walkable. Don’t use Google maps as it does not show the pedestrian walking paths. Ask locals. You can easily spend a couple of days on this area without walking near busy streets. Walking paths with no cars can easily get you wherever you want to go. We loved this trip!!

It may be unavoidable because the price is low, but it's a shame because the hotel has very poor hospitality. The image is of a casual person who came to stay at a relative's house. ⚫︎Room As soon as I entered the room, water was leaking from the ceiling. When I called the front desk, they said, ”I'll check,” instead of ”I'll change your room,” and an older man came in, humming, and asked, ”Where are you?” and ”Are you here to check on the front desk?” About 35 minutes passed before I changed rooms. When I entered the new room, it was obvious that the bed had been poorly made and the sheets were sticking out, and the comforter was sticking out of the sheets, and there were noticeable stains. I noticed it right away, but the hotel staff just turned a blind eye. I was disappointed to be lowered in rank, but Since the time for the online meeting had already passed, I had no choice but to start preparing for the meeting immediately. The batteries in the TV remote control were old and I had to reinsert them in order to use them. There were no tissues... (hard paper napkins for some reason) which was inconvenient. ⚫︎Bath There's a set of cosmetics on the 10th floor, but for some reason there aren't any on the 1st floor. The door is broken and there is no sign of repair (I can feel the age of the poster) ⚫︎Rice Floor staff have limited field of vision I thought it would be a morning and evening buffet, but if it's a course meal, you should ask about allergies at check-in. It's rude to react like it's a pain on the first day. Day 2: It says plum chirimen rice, but I was served Yukari rice, so when I checked, I made some strange excuse, and by the time I finished eating, a dish I had forgotten called plum chirimen came out lol. It was really unreasonable for me to become a complainer every time I checked because I had so many unpleasant things for two days in a row. By the way, there is curry for breakfast, but for some reason there is no spoon (do people in Chiba eat it with chopsticks?) ⚫︎Front Generally, I am slow to answer the phone. After about 30 calls, I finally got it, and all I could say was ``Hello.'' ⚫︎There are no coin laundry machines or cleaning services these days. I didn't have enough clothes so I had no choice but to go shopping. ⚫︎As an apology, I was given a free drink at dinner on the first day...but that wasn't the case. I was planning on bringing someone with me, but I'm glad I came alone. I wanted to extend my stay, but it's not possible here. ⚫︎The good thing is that The room facing the sea had a beautiful morning sun. Also, there is a water server on each floor. that's all

We arrived from Fuji and checked in quite late at night to this hotel. It is quite a far walk from the metro, about 15mins walk but they have shuttle bus to and from Disneyland which is convenient for people visiting Disneyland. We stayed for one night as we planned to visit Disney the next day. Front desk is well equipped with English and helped us check in very quickly. They introduced us their hotel facilities very well and gave us free spa voucher to use for the night or early morning. They also helped us to book a taxi as we need to go to the nearby AEON mall to buy some stuff and grab our dinner. We were very tired from a long day in Fuji so we decided to take a taxi. The room is spacious and we have plenty space to open our luggage fully on the floor. Toilet was split into dry for toilet bowl, wet for shower. This is the best part of this hotel! If i were to visit disney again, i would definitely stay at this hotel again.

今まで宿泊したことのあるホテルの中で、一番サービスが良かったです‼ 無料で温泉に入れて、朝食ビュッフェも最高でした‼ 個人的に*焼きの味が美味しすぎて、忘れられないです。 *焼き目当てで泊まりに行きたいです。

Really really like this hotel. If you have to say, I like this hotel the most on this planet. Inadequate point: Obviously very old. There are some water stains everywhere on the ceiling, the feeling of old. The appearance can also see the traces of the years. Pros: The meal is delicious. The attitude of the cuisine is for freshness, for cleanliness, for the aroma of the sea. It is possible to get close to the sea in an incredible way. After coming once, I can clearly hear the sound of the sea for a long time, I can smell the smell of the sea, and I can remember the golden waves hitting the black black stone beach. Decisive advantage: Compared to the surrounding hotels, this hotel can open the window facing the sea. This hotel has an open-air hot spring, which can soak in the hot springs when you see the golden sea. This hotel has a car to pick up passengers to the canine station. This hotel has a very beautiful lobby and can enjoy elegant time.
