"Staff were very friendly; especially the dining room and kitchen staff. The room was clean - could hear noises and voices from other rooms but it was quiet after 22:00. Amazing sea view. Good shower. Dinner and Japanese breakfast were delicious. Very impressed. Would return- and hope for sunshine!"

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Ichiban Chō?
The best area to stay in Ichiban Chō is the central business district, especially around Takamatsu Station and the nearby shopping arcades.This area is the heart of Ichiban Chō, offering unparalleled convenience for travellers. It's highly walkable, with modern hotels, department stores, and a vast network of covered shopping arcades like Marugamemachi and Hyogomachi. Takamatsu Station serves as the main transport hub, connecting you to other parts of Kagawa Prefecture and beyond.For couples, staying near the waterfront and Takamatsu Port, just a short walk from Takamatsu Station, offers a pleasant experience. You'll find hotels with views of the Seto Inland Sea, and it's the departure point for ferries to the art islands like Naoshima and Teshima, making day trips incredibly easy. The Ritsurin Garden, one of Japan's most celebrated traditional gardens, is also easily accessible from this central area.For solo travellers, the area around Kawaramachi Station provides a good balance of accessibility and local character. It's a bit further inland from Takamatsu Station but still well-connected by local trains and buses.
When is the best time to go to Ichiban Chō?
The best time to go to Ichiban Chō is during spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November), which offer pleasant weather and various cultural events.Spring in Ichiban Chō is particularly lovely, with mild temperatures and the celebrated cherry blossom season. The city's parks, such as Ritsurin Garden, become especially picturesque during this time, making it ideal for leisurely strolls and photography. You'll find many local festivals and outdoor activities taking place, which add to the experience.Autumn also provides comfortable weather, with cooler temperatures and beautiful foliage. It's a great time for exploring the area on foot, enjoying the local cuisine, and visiting sites like Takamatsu Castle without the heat and humidity of summer. Many cultural events and food festivals are held in Ichiban Chō and the wider Kagawa Prefecture during these months.While summer (June to August) can be hot and humid, it's a good time for those interested in beach activities along the coast or exploring the Seto Inland Sea islands.
